How to hit the STINGER Golf Shot

How to hit the STINGER Golf shot The fairway wood stinger is a shot synonymous with

the world number 1, Tiger Woods, who easily smashes the 280 yard barrier with a THREE wood! It's a hugely powerful shot that, when performed correctly, is a terrific alternative to the driver if the big stick is misbehaving. Most importantly though, he usually finds the middle of the fairway with a Stinger shot because it offers extra accuracy. You will feel more in control and the ball flight the shot creates is both penetrating and promotes run on landing. In fact, there are so many reasons to have this shot at your disposal, the tweaks to your set-up and swing it needs are well worth learning and here are they are: Teeit low and aim left - Use a very low tee, take your 3 wood and position the ball centrally with your weight slightly more on your left side. You'll also need to aim slightly left because the ball position makes the club meet the ball earlier, so the clubface will be slightly open Grip down the handle - this will give you much greater control over your swing, but remember to keep your grip light ,at say number 5 on a scale of 10 where 10 is very tight. Keep your Weight Central - Your weight should stay central in the backswing. Limiting your weight transfer will allow you to stay on top of the ball, fully compressing it. We need this steeper angle of attack to create that lower, more powerful trajectory. Rediscover your shaft lean - Through impact, the shaft of your club needs to rediscover the forward lean it had at address. Create this by keeping the hands in front of the clubhead as you strike the ball. This keeps the loft off the club, sending the ball lower. Curtail the follow through - Curtailing your follow through is a natural position to get into when playing this type of shot. This is because you're not allowing the club to fully release, caused by the shaft lean you used to get the lower ball flight. Try this on the practise range first and build up your confidence with this shot, you'll be surprised how effective it is For further information and golfing tips click on the following link: www.golf-swing.org
