How to play a SOLID, low trajectory recovery golf shot

On Course Vital Shots

Being able to hit a solid but deliberately low trajectory golf shot, when you have got slightly out of position on the golf course, can make a big difference to your score. Hitting the golf ball a long way but on a low trajectory, to avoid over hanging tree branches for example, is a great recovery shot to be able to play when needed and can mean that you still hit the green in regulation, even though you are playing from a less than ideal position. Here we look at how to do just that successfully.

Here’s a really easy drill to work on to improve that pivoting rotation during your back swing, so that you eliminate any sway.
