a common place at on of my home courses is elevated green and often if your ball is a little long it ends up rolling down a steep backside. It could be just a few feet off the green or a few yards but the hill is often steep. I understand the general rule of thumb is to keep the shoulders parallel with the ground for full swings and I thought the same would also apply to pitch/chip shots too and not certain about that but even if 5that is correct what do you do when the hill is too steep to do this without losing balance.
It does work for me for full shots and also for chip/pitch when the hill is less sloped and I can balance with the shoulders parallel to the slope of the ground. But when too steep (which often happens) I'm not sure how to stand and play this greenside shot that went off the rear and rolled to sit on a steep incline.
