Here are some tips to help you escape from the higher grass:
1. Grip the club a bit tighter than normal to prevent the club from twisting at impact
2. Swing slightly faster on the downswing so the club's momentum does not slow when it hits the grass
3. Rehearse your swing before hitting and make sure to practice striking lots of grass
4. Pick the correct club (see images below) based on the percentage of the golf ball that you can see
75% of the golf ball - Fairway Wood or Long Hybrid
50% of the ball - Mid Hybrid or Mid Iron
25% or less - Wedge
May you find all of the fairways but in case you don't, use these tips the next time you are in the rough.
Happy Swinging!
