Uneven lies
Uneven lies require subtle tweaks to your stock swing—tilt, balance, and aim—to stabilize low point and face control. From uphill stances and downhill chips to a ball above your feet with the driver, learning to read slope and visualize uneven lies delivers cleaner contact, tighter start lines, and smarter club selection.
- Setup tilts and ball position when adjusting for slope: uphill, downhill, sidehill.
- Aim and face tweaks for ball above your feet driver shots.
- Feet-together swings to sharpen balance, rotation, and low point.
- Downhill-lie chipping around the green: forward pressure, shaft lean, predictable rollout.
- Read the lie and use flat-range visuals to simulate uneven lies.
- Smoother tempo, straighter starts, cleaner contact, better distance control.
Press play to master these slope-specific adjustments and turn tricky lies into scoring opportunities.
