IN THE WATER
Before you try this shot, ask yourself two questions:
(1) Is at least half of the ball above the water?
(2) Do I have a pair of rainpants to slip on? If you answer no to either question, you might want to take a drop.
But if the ball isn’t submerged and you don’t mind getting wet, think of this as a bunker shot. Grab a wedge, and open the face before taking your grip. Set up with your body aligned well left of the target.
Make a steep swing and try to enter the water as close to the ball as possible. Don’t expect it to go far (and keep your mouth closed). Hit one or two of these a year, and you’ll be a clubhouse legend.
