The rescue pop shot

It can be a frustrating feeling to see your ball nestled down in the rough when you’ve only just missed the green with your approach shot.

Sometimes, trying to use a lofted wedge can be an option that risks catching too much grass between club and ball, making distance control almost impossible.

So next time you find yourself in this position, try this rescue club pop shot from TG Elite Teaching Pro Gareth Johnston. It eliminates any chance of snagging the club in the grass and is especially useful when the pin is at the back of the green.
