A Few Tips for the Perfect Pitch Shot :

After you tee off, your ball will (hopefully) make it to the fairway and you will be ready to make your next shot. With about 100 yards to go (which is usually the case on a Par 4 hole), you will want to consider a pitch shot. A pitch shot is an intermediate length golf shot, less than a drive and more than a chip shot. The Pitch Shot is done with either a pitching wedge (PW) or a sand wedge (SW). For longer pitch shots, the 5 or 6 irons are recommended.

Here are tips for the perfect pitch shot:

Start with a slightly open stance, positioning your right foot toward the ball. Keep your hands in a direct line in front of your ball. Keep your weight on the left side of your body throughout the shot. Keep your shoulders square with your right knee flexing toward your left. Make a full swing so the back of your left hand and the club face are at the front of the shot.

The goal in a pitch shot is to get the ball high enough in the air to miss any hazards. It’s an important golf shot as, if done properly, can get you much closer to the green!
