| FAIRWAY
WOODS - THE GAME SAVERS |
| Fairway woods are
often described as 'game savers'. On long 4s, these useful clubs allow the
average golfer to 'get home' in two shots with an excellent chance at par
or birdie. A basic 'long club' swing is used with only the position of the
ball being slightly different. |
|
|
Avoid leaning
back and trying to 'scoop' the ball. Take back the fairway wood low and
slow. Play the ball 2 inches inside the left heel.
|
|
|
Relax the
forearms and shoulders. A low take-back will help you sweep the ball for
the turf.
|
|
|
Hit slightly down into the ball and let the loft of the club get the
ball airborne.
