How to Put Spin on a Golf Ball

Putting spin on a golf ball is a useful technique for golf. It allows you to land your golf ball on the green beyond the pin, and have it roll back towards the pin. This technique is used for approach shots to the green. You will want to have the ball closer to your back foot, and have your feet closer together than a normal stance. You must use a swing that goes down on the ball. You cannot use a sweeping swing. In other words, the "U" in the pendulum motion of your swing is going to be thinner than that of a normal swing. You want to hit the ball before right underneath, and take a divot following contact with the ball. Congratulations, you have just successfully put spin on your wedge shot!
