Selecting the right golf club for a particular shot involves considering factors like distance, shot trajectory, and lie conditions. Here are some steps to help you pick the right golf club:
Know Your Distances:
- Understand your average distances for each club. This can be done through practice and experience.
- Measure your carry distances, not just the total distance. Consider how far the ball will fly before it rolls.
Assess the Shot:
- Determine the distance to the target and any obstacles like hazards or bunkers.
- Consider the wind direction and strength, as it can affect the ball's flight.
Consider the Lie:
- Check the lie of the ball (fairway, rough, sand) and how it might impact your shot.
- A clean lie allows for better contact, while rough or sand requires adjustments.
