Uphill Lie

A ball position where the golf ball sits on ground that slopes upward toward the target, requiring specific swing and setup adjustments to achieve solid contact and proper ball flight. Uphill lies typically produce higher, shorter shots that tend to draw (curve right to left for right-handed golfers). Players must adjust their stance parallel to the slope, take more club to account for the higher trajectory, and maintain balance throughout the swing. Uphill lies are common on hilly courses and require practice to master the necessary adjustments.
