Lefties only golf tip: Hi I'm Tom Stickney Golf Magazine Top 100 Instructor and today I want to talk to you about lie analysis. All too often when I see people taking 3 wood they're hitting a free 3 wood at any lie that they have this ball that sitting down as you can see here is going to be awfully hard for me to get up in the air with my 3 wood. The best case scenario for this down lie that I have is to maybe get a low burning maybe a or type of shot that's what usually happens when the ball is going to sit down a little bit.
