hello all , as it says how do u setup and hit a approach shot so when it hit the green it rolls out some ? just about all my approach shot hit the green and either hop a foot and stop dead or even backs up a little . sometimes I would like my approach shot to release and roll out . how do u setup and execute a shot like this ?

make an easier swing so you don't generate as much spin?

My philosophy on golf "We're not doing rocket science, here."


Well it seems you are spinning the ball quite a bit. The obvious answer is to play to your spin and just hit it further and dont count on any roll. Depending on how far out you are, you could always switch to a lower lofted club and choke down for a nice bump with roll. The higher the trajectory, the more your ball will want to stay where it lands...especially with spin. You could always do what I do and just hit it thin on accident and cuss til you want to throw up. Your choice tho!

Use the correct club for the shot.

You are obviously using a club with too high a loft.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

 

 


Hit a lower lofted club with an easier swing. It should fly lower with less spin. Both will help it run out a bit.

    • I agree with @dennyjones, a suspension of some meaningful duration would be better than getting bounced from the Tour. They might consider experimenting each week. It might generate a bit of interest. I like the idea of a visible shot clock. If a player and their caddy can’t decide on a strategy and pull the trigger in XX seconds (30? 45? 60?), one stroke penalty. Give each player 2 resets a round. The clock starts when the last player to hit’s ball stops moving. Other pace ideas could be used every couple events until a consensus is reached to adopt or ditch an idea.
