Also called a "hosel rocket", this is when you hit the ball with the hosel (club's neck) instead of the clubface, resulting in an erratic shot.
When a golfer makes contact with the lower portion of the club face, causing the ball to fly lower than usual and in most cases, further than intended.
Similar to a chunk, but this specifically refers to when you duff a chip shot.
Also known as a "duff", this is when a golfer hits the ground or turf behind the golf ball, causing poor contact and reduced distance of the shot.
A topped shot is when a golfer hits the top of the golf ball, causing it to only travel a short distance forward.
A "whiff" is when a golfer swings but misses the ball entirely.
For the right-handed player, a push shot is where the ball starts right of the target and flies relatively straight.
For a right-handed golfer, a pull shot is one that starts far left of the target and travels straight.
Also known as a "snap hook", a hook shot for a right-handed golfer is one that curves severely right to left and is generally an erratic shot.
