Grass, Ground Tilt, and How They Change Your Shot

Every golf shot you hit is influenced by two major factors:
  1. How the ball sits in the grass, and
  1. How the ground tilts beneath your feet.
These two conditions change how the club reaches the ball, how cleanly you can make contact, and how far and in which direction the ball will fly. A good lie on flat ground makes the game feel easy—while a bad lie on a slope can turn a simple shot into a challenge. By understanding how grass depth, lie quality, and ground tilt affect your swing, you can make smarter decisions, predict the ball’s flight, and control your distance more consistently.
