| Just a suggestion, beginners and indeed experienced golfers make one MAJOR mistake when they hit the ball into a bad lie position. Now I firmly believe you should play the ball no matter where the heck it comes down, you hit it there, its up to you to get it out of there. Now the MAJOR mistake, too many golfers try to make a purse out of a sows ear. When your buried in grass six inchs deep, or hidden under a tree, dont try to drive it a 100 yards down the fairway, be happy just to get the darn thing back in the fairway. If it means turning around and hitting it back where you came from, "do it". I've done it and I've seen many of my golf buddies do it, whaling away like a mad man, only to end up taking 3 shots to get 10 yards down the fairway, instead of banging it out 5 yards onto the fairway and getting away a good next shot. Play every shot, someday your going to want to play a club tournament or scramble and believe me nobody's going to let you move the ball to a good lie.
