Control your pitch shot trajectory!
Date Posted: 2012-02-01 04:27:14
Control the trajectory of your pitch shot with different finish position's.
The concept for hitting the different trajectories is quite simple including the back swing remaining the same.
•To hit a low shot...finish your swing low.
•Medium...medium finish.
•High shot...high finish.
Try these different finishes the next time you are at your short-game area or even on the course.

USGA RULE OF THE DAY.

USGA RULE OF THE DAY!
Rule of the Day 18-6/1 Ball Moved in Measuring to Determine If Re-Drop Required
Q:
A player drops his ball in accordance with the Rules. The ball rolls and the player is uncertain whether it has come to rest more than two club-lengths from where it first struck a part of the course. The player measures to determine whether he must re-drop under Rule 20-2c(vi) and in doing so accidentally causes the ball to move. What is the ruling if (a) the ball had rolled more than two club-lengths or (b) the ball had not rolled more than two club-lengths?
A:
The player incurs no penalty for causing his ball to move in either case (see Rule 18-6). If the ball had rolled more than two club-lengths, it must be re-dropped. If the ball had not rolled more than two club-lengths, it must be replaced. |

Pace of Play!
Date Posted: 2012-01-26 04:34:34
PLAY GOLF AT A GOOD PACE OF PLAY (4 Hours 15 Minutes)
Some people are naturally slower than others and not much you can say will make them move much faster. However, players can become as efficient as possible and show some consideration to their playing partners and the groups behind them.
Suggestions:
...
*Keep up with the group in front of you.
*Walk and a brisk speed between each shot.
*Be ready to hit the shot when it is your turn.
*No need for 5 practice swings before every shot.
*Plan your shot while fellow playing competitors are hitting.
*On the green be reading your putt while others are putting, making sure not to effect your group.

USGA RULE OF THE DAY!
16-1a/3 Removing Dew or Frost from Line of Putt
Q:
May a player brush dew or frost from his line of putt?
A:
No. Rule 16-1a prohibits touching the line of putt except in removal of loose impediments, repair of ball marks, etc. Dew or frost is not a loose impediment -- see Definition of "Loose Impediments." Accordingly, such action would be a breach of Rule 16-1a. |

Rule of the Day 14/1.5 Intent to Strike Ball Ceases During Downswing; Club Not Stopped But Path of Clubhead Altered to Avoid Striking Ball
Q:
A player begins his downswing with the intention of striking the ball but decides during the downswing not to strike the ball. The player is unable to stop the club before it reaches the ball, but he is able to swing intentionally over the top of the ball. Is the player deemed to have made a stroke?
A:
No. The player is considered to have checked his downswing voluntarily by altering the path of his downswing and missing the ball even though the swing carried the clubhead beyond the ball.
If the player had not successfully checked his downswing (i.e., he had struck the ball), he is considered to have made a stroke.
This happened to Kevin Na 2011 Justin Timberlake Shriners Hospitals for Children Open. |
