  • Fat, thin, fat, thin. Repeat. It's infuriating. Fear not, because our man Clive Tucker is going to help you to strike the ball cleanly. Every time.

The article on MSN discusses the common golfing issue known as "fatting and thinning" the golf ball, where golfers either hit the ground before the ball (fat shot) or catch the ball too high on the clubface (thin shot). This problem often stems from improper weight distribution, incorrect posture, or poor swing mechanics. To address fat shots, golfers are advised to ensure their weight is moving forward during the downswing, maintain a steady head position, and keep their hands ahead of the ball at impact. For thin shots, the article suggests checking the ball position, ensuring it's not too far forward in the stance, and maintaining a consistent spine angle throughout the swing. Additionally, practicing with alignment sticks or using training aids can help correct these errors. The piece emphasizes the importance of understanding and correcting these fundamental errors to improve consistency and performance in golf.
