Navigating the rough involves selecting the right club to escape tricky conditions, as the thick grass significantly reduces your margin for error. Precise contact is essential to avoid disastrous shots and unnecessary strokes.
Assessing your lie and choosing the appropriate club can save shots and frustration. It’s crucial to evaluate scenarios, consider the grass’s thickness and length, and use a club with more loft for dense rough or a sharper leading edge for balls sitting down.
This strategic adaptability improves overall performance on the course. Additionally, understanding your swing mechanics and practicing with different clubs will build confidence in challenging situations.
