00:00All right guys you've probably seen on social media that really cool shot that people refer to
00:04as a stinger that launched really low and runs forever. Tiger Woods has hit a couple of those
00:09in his career. I'm going to tell you exactly how to do it. The secret is to try to get to the ball
00:15with as little loft as possible on the club face. To do that we have to de-loft it and we do that by
00:22first of all trying to get the hands more in front of the golf ball at impact all right.
00:29So how do we do that? We have to try to feel like the body moves left towards the target and that the
00:36hands really push forward okay. The secret is too to not leave the club face too much open and if you
00:44want the shot that really runs out we also need to make sure that we don't hit too much down on the
00:50golf ball because the people that try this in the beginning they just swing straight down into the
00:55ground and you're going to create too much backspin if you do that. So a little tip is to tee up the
01:01ball a little bit almost like the same height as a three would. If you hit too much down on the golf
01:06ball you're literally going to hit it underneath the golf ball you're not going to hit them at all.
01:11So this force you to be a little bit more shallow and if you can be shallow with hands in front of the
01:18golf ball you're going to deal off the club face and you're going to lower that spin rate. So I'm going to see
01:22if I can do it here. So move the ball actually kind of in the center of your stance push the hands
01:29forward already in the setup and with the teed up ball feel like you're swinging more around the body
01:35with the hands more in front of the golf ball and that golf ball should launch way lower and run forever.
01:41So that right there will make it popular on social media give it a go share with your friends see
01:54what you can do.
