For every golfer, regardless of the skill level, shaping the ball flights from side to side is recommended.
In complementing shaping shots, working on trajectory also is of ultra importance. For those unfamiliar with golf ball trajectory, it is how high or low the ball travels through the air in flight.
An example of shaping shots and trajectory
Working on multiple ball flights and trajectories during warm-ups on the range prior to playing is a wonderful idea and will prove to be quite enjoyable. Not pulling off the shot the first couple times is OK and immaterial. It’s fun and will prove to be very beneficial in attempting what the pros are faced with every day on tour. It will provide you with a broader understanding and perspective of what it takes to maneuver ball flights and shot patterns.
Here is a word of caution when taking your game from the practice area to the golf course. If you happen to be hitting the opposite shot pattern than you are accustomed to or desire, don’t panic. Just take it to the course, and visit the practice area afterward.
