Understanding the Problem
The Issue: A thin shot happens when the club's leading edge contacts the middle or upper portion of the ball. These shots fly low and hot, often running through greens or failing to clear hazards. Loss of distance control makes scoring difficult.
Common Causes:
- Standing up through impact
- Early extension of hips
- Trying to help the ball up
- Loss of spine angle
- Swinging too hard
- Poor rhythm and tempo
