Deep Divot

Problem

Your ball landed in a deep divot.

Cure

Use the most lofted club that will still give you a good shot. Ideally, you will want to use a mid to short iron.

Therapy

Hood the club by playing the ball a little back in your stance. You will hit it fat or skull the ball if you play the ball too far forward in your stance or try to lift it out of the divot. So make sure you take a normal descending swing with your iron.
