The Three Wood Chip

The ball landed against the fringe. Using a pitching wedge usually leaves you with an uncontrollable ball flight due to using too steep of a swing or you come up too short because of decelerating your swing at contact.

Against a Stick

Your ball is lying against a branch, stick, twig or other obstruction in the fairway and you cannot afford an unplayable lie penalty.

Edge of the Fairway

You have a short distance to the green but ball is lying on a ridge of grass between the fairway and rough.

Long Shot Drill

You have difficulty hitting full shots.

The Big Cut

You could use a slight fade but ball is sitting down in the grass and you are still over 200 yards away from the pin.

Long Divot Shot

Your ball landed in a divot in the middle of the fairway. You overshoot your target because you tried to dig the ball out of the divot or selected the incorrect club for the shot.

Depression in the Fairway

Your ball is sitting in a depression and you have about 140 yards before you reach the green.

The Short Iron Punch

The wind is blowing into your face and you are about 100 yards from the pin.

Free the Clubface for a Draw

You normally have difficulty drawing the ball because you do not release the clubhead freely at the point of contact.

Overshooting a Chip Shot

You always hit past the pin when chipping even though you try hard to get the ball up into the air.
