“Playing out of a water hazard”
Simon Andres, Director of Golf at The Omni Grove Park Inn
If a shot winds up in a water hazard and you want to play it, you can. It all depends on the lie. … Pull on your rain pants, particularly if it’s one of the first holes of the day. You don’t want to spend all day in wet pants … Limit the damage – to your score and to your clothes.

“Putting from the fringe off the green, with the ball resting up against the higher cut of rough”
Ron Leporati, Director of Golf at Omni Bedford Springs Resort
Typically, I get pitching wedge out, with the intent of guiding the blade of the club through the long grass. A putter is more likely get caught up in the grass, because the putter head is a lot bigger and does not go through the grass like the wedge.

“Chipping out from between trees, over a bunker, onto the green… ”
Danny Medina, Director of Golf, Omni Tucson National Resort
There are four steps that will give you the best chance to get out of this sticky situation: a lofted club; the proper stance; focus on the target; accelerating through the shot.
