In this section, Denis Pugh makes an introduction and presents you a situation wherein the ball is the deep greenside rough almost a foot deep under the grass and how to dig that ball out.

In this section, Denis Pugh will teach you how to get the ball out of a deep greenside rough. The first thing is to use a lofted golf club with a heavy head to dig in into the grass and loft the ball. Second, as you come in into the ball get the club up on the backswing quickly so as not to get caught up in the grass. With lots of wrist action, do a full golf swing with no or less follow through.
