‘Ice-cream scoop’ technique cracks fried-egg lies

Golf experts have unveiled a simple technique to overcome tricky “fried-egg” lies, where the ball sits in a small depression in the rough.

To execute the “ice-cream scoop” technique, golfers should:

  1. Stand close to the ball with their feet together.
  2. Angle the clubface slightly open and aim it at the back of the ball.
  3. Take a shallow swing, scooping the ball out of the depression and onto the green.

This technique promotes a lower launch angle and more spin, helping to control distance and minimize the risk of a mis-hit.

By mastering the “ice-cream scoop” technique, golfers can conquer fried-egg lies and improve their on-course performance.
