FROM THE TEE
Alignment
Never assume the mat is pointing in the right direction. Use a pre-shot routine that makes sure you are lined up correctly.
Solid base
Especially in windy conditions and off the mats. Widen your stance and keep the lower half of your body quiet.
Keep it straight
You’ll get less run in the winter. Try a fairway wood to improve consistency and you won’t lose all that much distance.
IRON PLAY
Grade your lie
Stand with your back to the flag and “grade” your lie. Think traffic lights – attack (green), lay up (yellow) or knock out sideways (red).
Mud ball
Take more club than usual and swing easy to reduce spin and help keep it online.
SHORT GAME
Get it rolling
Use a rescue club or fairway wood on temporary greens and putt how you would normally.
Keep it low
The chip and run reduces the chances of mis-hits and unpredictable bounces – compared to the high, lob shot.
Wet sand
The lob wedge can be very useful. Make a smooth, shallow swing. You don’t need to open the face or your stance.
