3Long<br />
approaches<br />
This is all about the lie. If you’ve found<br />
the fairway, you need to maintain a<br />
smooth rhythm and use that sweeping<br />
motion to help you hit the target. If<br />
you’re in the rough, your approach needs<br />
to change slightly, particularly if it’s<br />
heavy, to help you get it out. In both<br />
scenarios, be confident the technology in<br />
your hybrid will help you get home with<br />
less effort than a long iron.<br />
Rough: get steep<br />
A steep attack angle will<br />
help you get the ball out<br />
of the rough. Grip down,<br />
stand closer to the ball<br />
and pick the club up<br />
quickly with your thumbs<br />
pointing to the sky to<br />
achieve it.<br />
TRUST THE CLUB<br />
There is no need to go hard at<br />
the ball from the fairway as that’s<br />
how inconsistency creeps in. A<br />
combination of the face material,<br />
graphite shaft and centre of gravity<br />
position will see the ball launch<br />
high and cover the distance before<br />
landing softly.
