The 9 shots - Do you have them.

When I read the thread title I thought you meant these 9

Can you teach them Bob?

 

[Imurg]

Yep.
All of 'em.
In the bag, ready when I want them.
Each one to order, on demand.





No, not really.
I can hit them all but to order..?
Maybe the high fade.....

Problem is someone's definition of a shot and successful attempt will be vastly different to the next person.

Can you teach them Bob?

I could, but the golfer would need to have a neutral swingpath.
Then all you need to do is vary the ball position, the aim and clubface direction at impact.
Easy peasy

 

[patricks148]

Yep can hit them all no problem.

Only trouble its usually only when i want to hit the opposite shot

 

[Jamesbrown]

Got seven. Can’t control a fade trajectory for pineapples.

 

[garyinderry]

At our level.

If you can wing it one way then the other on demand and a low punch you will be doing just fine.

 

[clubchamp98]

Can hit them ,but on demand no.

 

[Captainron]

I sat behind tiger on the range at the open in 2010 and he hit those 9 shots with each iron in his bag one after the other. Was remarkable

 

[Lump]

Can hit them all on command, but the issue with some of them is controlling the amount of shape. Could be 5yrds or 45. The low draw being the nasty one for me.

 

[Dasit]

When it really matters, i am an expert at a low and left off the tee

 

[DeanoMK]

I would say that I'm quite good at controlling my trajectory. However, I can hit a cut (read: slice) with any of my clubs on demand. I can hit a draw fairly comfortably with my irons but really struggle hitting a draw with driver.

As Eric Morecombe might have said to Andre Previn in the famous sketch if it had been set on a golf course, ‘Your playing the wrong shot’ , retort being ‘I am playing all the right 9 shots, just not necessarily in the right order!’

You'd have to define "demand" a bit better for me..

Can I hit every one every time? No..
Can I hit every one if you give me 3 or 4 chances at it? Possibly

In all honesty, Id probably struggle with the high shots. I can hit medium (standard) and low, but high is a bit of a tricky one..
So, to answer your question... No..

An old club pro who taught Gordon Brand Jr told me, to hit it high, break your wrists earlier in the backswing. It's got me out of trouble so many times

See post # 12!

The only ones that I can manage are high straight, high fade and low fade. I naturally hit it high and with the first two its 50:50 whether I hit one or the other - so not really to order!

 

[Deleted member 1147]

I can manage all 3 straight ones, all 3 draws and the low fade. But struggle to purposely do the mid & high fade.

Once I’m able to get back out on the course & range I’ll be working on the fades .
