1 – Gather information
Which way is the wind blowing and how will the slope affect distance are two key questions for your pre-shot routine. Answering them will help you settle on a club and reduce potential doubt at address.

2 – Play safe
If you get a handicap shot, aim for the widest section with the least risky carry, which here is the front left section. This strategy banishes any chance of a big number and leaves you a 20-yard up-and-down for par.

3 - Shape your shot
If you don’t have a shot or need to make up ground, aim at the same wide point for safety, but then try to hit a small fade. This will leave you closer to the pin but without adding too much unnecessary risk to the shot.
