Long Side Hill

Problem

You need to hit a long iron off of a side hill lie with the ball above your feet.

Cure

Maintain your balance; do not allow gravity to cause you to lean forward on your toes.

Therapy

Set up to play a draw to increase the odds that the ball will fly straight. Make this lie feel more level by choking down on the grip by at least an inch. Do not try to kill it. Focus on trying to swing a little more around your body than usual.
