How to Practice Hitting a Lob Shot
A lob shot is a high, soft shot that lands and stops very quickly. If you watch the PGA Tour, you see players hitting lob shots around the green when they have to stop the ball quickly. Many amateur golfers don't try this shot because of its difficulty. Learning to hit a good lob shot takes practice and proper technique. Once you learn how to hit a lob shot, you have a better chance to save par from difficult situations around the green.
