How to get out of Trouble around the green!

  • I get a lot of questions about how to manage 'bad lies' when on the golf course. At first, it can be quite intimidating when your the ball is sat down in a divot, up against a tree of even in the ferns. However, if we change our mindset so that we focus on how we need to adjust in order to maximise our chances of achieving a good strike, it becomes much easier to play these shots.
    Listen in to this video to see how I manage to play from 'bad lies' and how you can adjust your technique to escape any situation around the greens! I believe there is no such thing as a bad lie, all you need to learn is how adapt to the situation at hand to give yourself the best change of making a good strike.

    @DanGrieveGolf - You are without a doubt, the best short game coach out there. You have helped me shave a number of strokes off my handicap. A request if I may - “Can you do a video on techniques for hitting out of fairway bunkers? Just like the short game, there is a lot of contradictory information out there. And, I could use some simple clear instruction on that!” Thanks!

    Great vid, what I take from this as an amateur player is the mentality, when you're in a tough position recognize it and know that just being on the green is a great outcome. You're not a pro, you're not going to score like one. Really nice examples in here. Thanks!

    Been using the phil mickelson "Hinge and hold" this past year and it's affective for some shots once you practice it a lot. But over the course of a week I've been playing your release 2 and it's unbelievable how it's unlocked a whole new level of my short game and soft landing and spin I never could pull off before

    What a useful video! You have the gift of explaining, what I think is a complex game, using practical, clear instructions. When you watch some of the great tour golfers explaining how to play the short game, they often assume that average golfers have the same skill-set as them. Of course we don’t have the luxury of thousands of hours of practice plus breathtaking talent. You teach us how to use the skill level at our disposal.

    I’ve seen dans vids around, more of his shorts but recently just dove in his catalog and been working on some releases when I have time. I’m actually super excited when I’ve missed greens lately. I’ve always been able to play different shots around the green but it’s trial and error, like I’m capable and pull it off half the time 😂 but Dan breaking it down for us and gives us the understanding of what need to happen to play each shot is changing the game. I’ve got a release 2.5 that just one bounce and stops that is nasty. Actually might be getting carried away with it because I just wanna hit it over and over again😂. The big back swing and the club just fallin just feels like forever and then you hear the clip of the ball. When done Dan. Love from hawaii!!!

    Super impressive as usual. I just wonder Dan … there is clear logic in your decision making for each situation. From club selection to improvised release. I feel that a big part of the challenge is being able to make those decisions. I just wonder if there are some basic rules, or a simple process you could identify that simplified this?
    Maybe wishful thinking… but worth asking 😅

For example - at 8.35 Dan is showing where to hit the ball on the face of the club, in a reverse shot, where a tree is to the left - what can we see…???… no further down than Dan’s waist!! His videos are chock-a-block with the same awful camera work, unfortunately. We can’t see what he’s talking about a lot of the time. Sorry but Dan deserves better.
