When facing a downhill lie, the key is to position your upper body parallel to the slope. This will allow your swing plane to match the level of the ground. Here is a downhill lie checklist:
1. Use a wider stance for stability
2. Lean your shoulders with the slope (use your club to help - see picture)
3. The ball will go lower and farther so choose a club accordingly
4. Play the ball position in the middle of your stance
5. Use your practice swing to rehearse the motion and check your balance
6. When swinging, keep your shoulders parallel to the slope throughout
Happy Swinging!
