I get a lot of questions about how to manage 'bad lies' when on the golf course. At first, it can be quite intimidating when your the ball is sat down in a divot, up against a tree of even in the ferns. However, if we change our mindset so that we focus on how we need to adjust in order to maximise our chances of achieving a good strike, it becomes much easier to play these shots.

Listen in to this video to see how I manage to play from 'bad lies' and how you can adjust your technique to escape any situation around the greens! I believe there is no such thing as a bad lie, all you need to learn is how adapt to the situation at hand to give yourself the best change of making a good strike.
