Shooting for a target on the golf course that you can’t see because of trees or other obstacles, is, without a doubt, extremely frustrating.

Because it’s difficult to determine exactly where to aim, you either have to walk or drive up to see the target to get a better idea. Once you can see the target, find a spot where you can see both the target and your golf ball.

Look for a spot on the ground, or close to the ground, that is midway between the target and your ball. Make that your target.

If the target is located on the other side of a hill, walk or drive up to the top of the hill. Then find a tree, preferably one that stands out and is in the background, right behind that target. When you’re ready to take your shot, aim for the top of that tree.

Tight Squeezes

Sometimes you’ll find yourself stuck in a tough spot, such as trees or bushes, but have a small passage out to the fairway. Your best bet is to hit the shot as close to the ground as you can. Your ball should take a low, fast hop, and then roll on the ground back into the open space and onto the fairway.
