Punch shot
Golf / Popular
Play a low, controlled shot from trouble or into the wind.
What coaches agree on
- Play the ball further back in your stance than you would for a normal shot.
- Set up with your hands ahead of the clubhead so the shaft leans forward, taking loft off the club before you swing.
Show moreShow less
- Take at least one extra club with less loft than you would normally use for the distance.
Common mistakes
- Swinging harder to fight the wind backfires — it launches the ball higher and adds spin instead of keeping it down.
- Letting the hands drift back level with the clubhead during the swing — by chicken-winging the lead arm, standing back up out of posture, or scooping at the ball — closes the face into a hook or lets the loft creep back in for a thin, high, or ballooned shot.
