Don't know if there has ever been a thread like this before. What are some things you do on the course to aid in shot selection, bunker play, putting, chipping? One I use, and that I've never seen anyone else I've played with use, has to do with selecting enough loft to clear a tree (or trees). I will step on the club face with the shaft pointed in the direction of the shot. If the shaft points over the tree then I know I have the correct loft. I don't do this behind the ball, just somewhere close that seems to be on the same level as my shot. Obviously you cannot use this technique where grounding the club is not allowed.
