Hit it longfrom the sand


APPROACH shots from sand between the 25 and 50-yard range are some of the most difficult to master. But assuming you have a good lie, applying the technical points from this “umbrella drill” will help achieve distance and a good strike consistently.

Draw a line in the sand from the ball towards you – this is a ball position line and creates the stem of the umbrella. The back of the ball should align with the centre of the stance for this shot.
