This document provides tips for reading greens when putting. It recommends looking at the slope and grass grain from multiple angles to determine the speed and break of the putt. Pay attention to how other putts roll on the same line as yours to accurately read difficult greens. Ask your caddie for help if unsure of the putt.
This document provides instructions for executing a bunker shot in golf. It advises visualizing the sand moving the ball rather than the club touching it. An open stance with weight on the left foot and a sand wedge should be used. The clubface should be squared and hands behind the ball before taking a full, unrushed swing through the sand to propel the ball forward. Confidence in letting the sand move the ball is important.
The document provides tips for playing shots from the rough, including taking an upright swing to hit less grass before the ball, playing the ball closer to your back foot for more distance with irons, closing the clubface slightly and punching down on the ball, using plenty of right hand but not losing tempo, taking a full swing with a lot of wrist to let the grass slow the swing, playing the ball forward if wanting more height on shots, and adjusting club selection based on the direction the grass is growing around the ball.
This document provides 15 tips for chipping in golf. The tips include positioning the ball off the back of the feet with a narrow but open stance at a 30 degree angle. The weight should be on the left side with feet close together and choking down on the grip slightly. A short, compact backswing should be used while keeping the hands ahead of the ball throughout the swing in order to hit down on the ball. Power comes from the length of the backswing with the goal being to hit down and slide the clubface under the ball.
The document provides instructions for executing a punch shot in golf, which involves selecting a low-lofted club, positioning the ball farther back in the stance and weight distributed more forward, choking down on the club to de-loft it further, swinging back three-quarters of the way and accelerating through the ball with hands ahead of it, and following through only three-quarters of the way for a low, running shot.

Here is my strategy in playing from a divotVal Villanueva
When hitting from a divot, place the ball farther back in your stance with a closed clubface and most weight on your left foot. Take a slower backswing and hit down steeper and harder than usual to ensure hitting the ball before the divot.

The document provides tips for hitting the ball from a fairway bunker: position the ball back in your stance; take an extra club and choke down to avoid hitting too deep; take a steeper backswing but only a 3/4 swing to maintain balance; swing smoothly through the ball to pick it out of the sand cleanly; follow through fully while keeping hips and chest facing the target; swing only as hard as your stance allows and finish high.
To play well in the wind, a golfer should observe flags and trees to determine wind direction. With a tailwind, use extra clubs and keep shots low, while a headwind calls for taking an extra club and playing off the right foot. Teeing lower and choking down can help hit shots lower into a headwind. A crosswind also requires clubbing up one.

SIDEHILL LIE WITH THE BALL LOWER THAN YOUR FEETVal Villanueva
When hitting a shot from a sidehill lie where the ball is lower than your feet, take a shorter club with the grip moved up, stand closer to the ball with bent knees, and aim more left than usual as the ball will likely fade in that direction. Keep your head down and still during the swing.
SIDEHILL LIE WITH THE BALL HIGHER THAN YOUR FEETVal Villanueva
For a sidehill lie with the ball higher than your feet, take a club with a longer shaft and choke down on it. Stand more erect than usual and keep more weight on your heels. Aim more to the right as the ball would generally hook on this lie.
When hitting a ball from an uphill lie, take a practice swing to find where the clubhead will touch the turf. Position the ball closer to your uphill foot and choose a club with less loft than normal. Keep more weight on your downhill leg, aim to the right of the target, and use more arm swing with less body rotation.
When hitting a ball from a downhill lie, take a practice swing to find where the clubhead will touch the turf towards your uphill foot. Take a stance with the ball back towards that uphill foot and choose a club with more loft than normal. Aim left of the target and use an upright arm swing with less body rotation while staying down through the shot.
This document provides tips for reading the slope and grain of a putting green to determine the speed and break of a putt.

Paying close attention to the grain, slope, and speed of other putts will help golfers accurately read the green.
This document provides instructions for properly executing a putt in golf. It outlines that the golfer should take a stance with their eyes over the ball and their shoulders and putter face square to the target line, with the ball positioned off their left toe or instep. From this balanced stance, the putting stroke should involve a low and slow takeaway, accelerating through the ball toward the intermediate target, and following through down the target line, with deceleration being the major cause of missed putts. A shortened backswing can help create a more accelerating stroke and follow-through.
