In this situation we need to keep the ball low, we're trying to hit a punch shot. We want to learn how to hit a punch shot under the tree that gets us away from trouble on to the green. Let me show you how to do it.
The most important thing here is choosing the correct loft. If you have too much loft on the shot, you are going to hit right in the tree. If you have the correct amount of loft, which again, is going to help you de-loft it this way, that's going to help you hit the ball low and get the proper results that you're looking for. So remember, take away the loft, here is too much loft, this is correct loft, this would be de-lofted.
The idea would be instead of using your sand wedge, use your eight iron. I am going to show you how to hit a punch shot. That punch shot is going to stay low under those trees and give you chance to score. Here's how it works.
You want to make sure that the ball position is back in your stance. Then you get set up on it. Put a little bit of weight on your front foot, and as you go through the impact, as you go through the hitting area, you want to make sure your hands stay forward like this. This will keep the ball flight down and keep the club just a little bit de-lofted, and also keep the ball on the right line.
That's what I am talking about.
