Deep Rough Recovery Shot Tuition

Hitting the ball into the deep rough will inevitably happen throughout the week of The Open. Striking the ball out of the rough is a task amateurs and professionals alike have to tackle.

The key is to descend on the ball in order to lift it out of the rough and back onto the green.

PGA professional golfer Dan Frost shows you how to use a golf shaft effectively to encourage a descending blow on the ball in this golf instruction video.
