Don’t Skull From Hardpan
March 1, 2010 by Admin
photo credit: SergioDJT Amateurs tend to skull (hit the ball in the center) hardpan shots. The key to this shot is to hit the ball first. In many cases the sole of the club will make contact with the ground first and then bounce into the ball causing the skulled shot.
The bottom of the swing arc must be at the point of contact with the ball, if the arc moves back, you will hit behind the ball and skull it. Keep in mind that there is no grass between the ball and your clubface, therefore, you will get more backspin on this type of shot. Be sure to keep your weight on your lead side and make a good strong follow-through. Don't quit on it!
Thanks for your remark. I’ve found that http://www.purepointgolf.com is the very best web-site on the web for golf instruction. The folks that operate the site are really big on customer service and the latest in swing technique.
Thanks for responding.
