Quit Hitting It Fat! 5 Easy Ways To Eliminate The Worst Shot In Golf

There’s an old saying in golf, “Hit it thin to win.” It means that if you are going to mishit an iron shot, it is better to catch the ball a little thin. Thin shots, in which you don’t quite get all the ball but strike it somewhere up on the cover, will move forward and sometimes end up pretty close to where you wanted. Conversely, fat iron shots, in which you hit behind the ball, never get near the intended destination. In effect, they go nowhere. Fat shots are wasted efforts. To avoid or cure them, you must first understand why they occur.
