Make the Practice Swing Count

Cal on February 11th, 2006

Taking a practice swing that just waggles the club around whilst you look in the general direction of the green achieves nothing.

Set up close to the ball so you have the same lie and stance as you will when you actually take the shot. Now take your practice swing.

Feel how the slope of the ground will affect your balance. Strike the ground to see where your club will bottom out from the lie, and then adjust your ball position and address accordingly.
