The Secrets to “Rickie Fowler-Like” Backspins
Not all shots are created equal. Even Rickie says that all the training and experience in the world can’t prevent bad grass, slope, or weather from ruining your shot.
Strike a pose. Hold your shot afterwards so there’s nothing bringing your shot off line. This is also great for having others check your shot or for filming so you can see where you’re ending up.
Keep ball forward in your stance. The more forward it is (too an extent obviously), the steeper the ball comes down and the more your backspin kicks in. Peter Finch Golf has a 4-minute video that briefly goes over this.
Get under the ball, NOT the grass. When you create a divot with your wedge…you’ve messed up. The hole club face needs to hit your ball if you want maximum backspin. Any grass between your ball and the grooves of your club (don’t forget to keep those filed by the way) reduces grip and your spin to.
Keep weight on leading foot. Rickie recommended to try and keep 60-70% of your weight on your lead foot. This allows you to reduce the power and distance your shot has while allowing your club and form to do all the work.
Best luck on taking these out to the greens this weekend!!

🤓 Clubhouse Critiques
Tiger has an INDOOR Golf League???
You heard it here first…
Well unless you didn’t of course.
That’s besides the point though, Tiger and Rory Mcllroy released today what their Technology Golf League (TGL) will look like in terms of format, rules etc.!
COURTESY OF TGL
According to the graphic they gave above it’s not anything small or simple that’s for sure.
This isn’t like the golf simulators you put in your man cave at all.
With the golf simulator on the far end where driving and fairway shots will take place, they’ll be hitting all shots over 97.3 yards in distance.
The rest of the shots can then supposedly be taking place on the indoor green as shown above.
Craziest thing is…
The first match is supposedly slotted for January 9th of this year!!
You can read more about it all at Golf.com
Speaking personally though…
I think this “TGL” thing is just an excuse for Tiger to have a football stadium sized practice facility 👀
Totally kidding, that man has more than enough money to build this thing his backyard.
What are your thoughts on the whole thing?
