Up Hill Lie
Well, the good thing is that we are in the fairway and so hopefully we have a clean lie and we are not sitting in a divot. The issue now is to deal with the uphill lie it self. Logically, with an uphill lie the ball flight will go higher and will have a tendency to hook which means we will need to consider hitting one more club and adjust directly accordingly to get the distance and get the ball on line (could be two clubs depending upon the severity of the up slope).
The important thing is to keep our shoulders parallel to the slope with the front shoulder slightly higher and put more of your weight on the back foot. Position the ball toward the front heel and take a smooth swing.
