In the Line of Fire

Confidence in your alignment is essential when you set-up to fire an iron shot to a par-three.

As a guide, look for an old divot mark on the teeing ground that points in the direction you want to hit the ball. That doesn't necessarily mean at the flag.

A more prudent shot may be one fired towards the fat of the green, away from trouble.

Tee up your ball behind that divot and immediately you give yourself a positive mental image that will help you to release the clubhead on line towards your target.
