"OK, the neutral clubface could also be called the natural clubface cause when the ball if you just set the club on the ground it's going to rest about like that so that's neutral. So that's open and then that's closed. So neutral will give you a pretty much of a straight ball but the reason that it's important to understand how an open clubface works, a closed clubface works, and a neutral one works is they're all not, there's variations of each one of them. So most of the time because I'm a right-hander and I'm swinging counterclockwise even as much as I try to hit the ball neutral I was probably going to get a little bit of right-hand of clockwise spin on it. So I just want you to be aware of that. So neutral is going to try, you're going to try to hit the ball straight as you can and that worked out pretty good. And let's see how I can do on this one. OK, so that's the problem with the neutral one is I think when you open the face a little bit you have a little more control but the neutral one's pretty good. Alright, that was a good shot but I like to, I think it's very valuable for you to practice your open, your close, and your neutral and then find through time and practice you're going to get the feel for what the right shot is because this game really isn't a one size fits all and there's really no, all these shots that I'm showing you, you need to practice a lot to get your own feel for it."
