How to hit the 180

You’ve hit a cracking drive and find yourself 180 yards from the flag. Amateurs are bad at selecting the right club and it’s something that you see time and again in Pro-Ams, Most think they hit the ball much further than they actually do so they are always coming up short. They make the mistake of thinking a certain yardage will always mean a certain club, but as you see, there are many different thought processes you need to considers if you faced with a shot of exactly 180 yards to the pin, which, depending on the conditions, can range from anything from an 8—iron through to a 4-iron (or even a hybrid in some circumstances). You can hit a 6-iron normally if there were no other factors to consider.
