GOLF TIP 



 
How To Hit a Side-Hill Lie

 

If your ball comes to rest on a slope, you should immediately think of balance and tempo for your swing, instead of making a powerful move.  Swinging hard on a sloping lie will cause you to lose balance and will send the ball flying off wildly.  Concentrate on keeping your lower body quiet and making a three-quarter sing with a little more club than you would normally need for the distance.  By staying quiet and swinging in control, you will be sure to get much better results.
