The opening of the club is a technique that often causes confusion among amateurs, and like many things in golf, the answer that when you do is: it depends. This is part of what makes golf entertaining and challenging. There are few absolute rules; The technique must match your individual shaking style and physical characteristics.
Here are five main situations where the opening of the club can be the right movement – and where it is usually not.
1 If you have low club speed, avoid opening your face
Golfists with lower swing speeds usually don’t need to open the club. Why? Because the opening of the face grows the attic, which releases the highest ball but also reduces the distance. If you already fight with distance, adding the attic can hurt more than help. It also presents increased risk, which may not be worth it.
2 in the Greenside Bunkers
If you are using your west of the west of the sand and find the ball traveling too far, This is a great time to open the face. By doing so adds the attic and roll, helping the ball to land softly and stop quickly. You can change how much you open your face to control the distance more precisely, which is a particularly useful technique for high -speed swing players.
3 for short pitch shots
Small pitch shoots require smaller oscillations, which in turn generate less speed and rotation. This lack of rotation can make the ball end more than you want. Opening the face adds both attic and roll, helping the ball control faster after it goes down.
Remember, opening the face also changes the purpose of the club (indicates more right for right hand players), so adjust your attitude and approximation accordingly.
4 by the Greenside Deep Approximate
When your ball is sitting in harsh harsh, you may need to bend your upper body more towards the target. By lowering your lead shoulder and raising your trail shoulder, you will catch your attack angle. This helps the club make cleaner contact with the ball instead of being caught in the grass.
However, this added slope also the Delofts club. If you still need attic to prevent the ball from going far away, opening the club is a great solution. He restores the attic, allowing the ball to appear and “catch” after going down to green.
5. When you faint the club axis
Another method of adding the attic and rotating, without completely opening the face, is to faint the axis slightly back to the address. This moves the handle behind the ball than on or before it. Increases both attic and flatulence, leading to a higher start and more rotation.
Support of the shaft back does not reduce the surface of the stroke as much as opening the face can, making this a slightly more dangerous but still effective option.
There is no rule of a suitable size when you open your club. The Theller is to understand your shake trends and know how changes in your configuration – like attic, lean angle and facial angle – affect your shooting. Use these techniques selectively, and you will add more skills and control to your short game.
