Pulling off a successful flop shot requires skill, finesse and practice. Watch as PGA pro Jordan Spieth takes you step-by-step through this difficult, yet rewarding golf stroke.
In the game of golf, every shot is different, and the flop shot is no exception. Intended to lift the ball as high as possible with little to no spin upon landing, the flop shot can be great when trying to clear hazards or sitting the ball up on the green. However, with this specialty shot comes challenges.
“[Flop shots] are probably the most difficult shots you’ll face on the course,” says PGA TOUR pro and acclaimed golfer Jordan Spieth, winner of three professional majors.
But by practicing your mechanics, tweaking your swing and building your confidence, even novice golfers can craft a fabulous flop shot.
