SHORT-Play Your Percentages: Club Up on a Sidehill Lie-John Hughes Golf
Do you play aggressively… or do you play your percentages?
I’ve got a sidehill lie (ball above my feet) and about 175 yards to the green. If I hit the “normal” club, I have to be perfect. Instead, I take a little more club and play the higher-percentage shot that gives me a real chance to hit the green.
