Another of those trouble shots is dealing with the wind. Many players advise teeing up the ball lower for a drive into the wind.
For average golfers it is better to tee the ball as normal and hit as solid a shot as you can make. The wind will exaggerate any side spin put on the ball at impact. This shot demands a solid hit with a nice even tempo.
Teeing the ball low will tend to produce a downward blow rather than a sweep through, thus producing more spin.
Another problem with the wind is club selection. If you find yourself a wedge distance from the green facing a headwind, try punching a 9 iron instead. Less loft means greater control. Stopping it will be no problem.
Our final chapter will be about a very important part of the golf game that many people just take for granted – stretching before your game.
