Golf: Bounce The Ball On The Club Face
Golf: Bounce the ball on the club face - impress your golfing friends with this special trick by bouncing the ball on the club
-
Step 1:
-
Position the club
-
To learn to bounce the ball, the first step is to hold the club with the face horizontal, start by simply dropping balls towards the clubface and trying to catch them.
-
Step 2:
-
Bounce the ball into your hand
-
Then start trying to bounce the ball back into your hand with a slight upward movement of the club, lowering the club back to its original position after each bounce.
-
The trick is to keep the club head close to the ground and wait for the ball to drop to it.
-
Don't try to chase the ball with the club, as you will quickly lose control.
-
The arm movement when you bounce is minimal. Keep your wrist still, and bend your elbow and shoulder slightly on each bounce. Move your body only as much as you need to keep the ball in front of you.
-
Step 3:
-
Carry on bouncing
-
Once you can bounce the ball, try to bounce it on the clubface a second time.
-
Then try three times, and soon you will be able to just carry on bouncing.
