Re: Club selection and Ball Lie

It is difficult to advise here as the solution will rely on your skills with various clubs. I can tell you what I would do though:

In this scenario I would not consider trying to hit a 200 yard shot to the green as the percentage risk of getting poor contact with a club capable of that distance would be too high. I would look to hitting a shot that would safely carry 100 to 130 yards, leaving me a finesse wedge shot close to the pin. Depending on how bad the indented lie I would look for a full 7 iron or a punched 5 iron to do it. Failing all this with a deeply buried lie, I would dig it out onto the fairway with a pitching wedge with a closed face and ball back in stance.
