Approaching
the approach shot
“The first thing I always try to do is
figure out what kind of shot it would
take to get on the green and how to
get the ball back down on the ground
the fastest,” Hines says. “Especially
with higher handicappers, the trouble
comes from trying to lift the ball up in
the air too much — the quicker they
can get the ball back on the ground
the better, if that is a possibility.”
“The center of the green is always
the best target,” Byrd adds. “You may
have a longer putt but it is not a bunker
shot.”
Quick tips for a
better approach
“I see problems with tension in the
arms and squeezing the club way too
tight. ... The more relaxed you are
and the more free-flowing your swing
is, the more consistent your shots are
going to be,” Hines says.
“Focus on where you want the ball
to go, not where you don’t want the
ball to go … that is, ‘I want to hit
the ball on the green’, not ‘I don’t
want to hit the ball in that bunker,’”
Byrd says.
