Using the "TrueLie" adjustable golf mat, Grayson Zacker demonstrates how to adjust for uneven lies on the golf course. It is very rare that you get a perfectly flat lie on the golf course like you practice on the driving range. Therefore I suggest that you spend some time practicing these difficult lies either on the course or sometimes there are slopes on the edges of driving ranges.
Ball Above Your Feet
stand taller
grip down on the club
aim more right to account for the fact that the ball tends to hook from this lie
Ball Below Your Feet
Get lower by bending more from the hips and adding knee flex
Grip all the way at the top of the grip
Implore a more vertical swing
Aim more left to account for the fact that the ball tends to slice from this lie
Uphill Lie
Set your weight slightly forward with your lower body
Sake sure you resist gravity from pulling you back by focusing on going to a full forward finish
Aim a little right because the ball will tend to hook.
Downhill Lie
Put the ball slightly back in your stance
Level your shoulders or try to align more with the slope
Hinge the club up more vertical on the backswing
Swing down the slope
The shot will be lower than normal
Tends to go a bit to the right
