Decide on a target line that will steer the ball in the proper direction. Stand behind your ball and envision this imaginary line from your ball to the spot you want the ball to initially land on. You now have a target line that you can use for aiming purposes. But to land your target, you have to grab a stick from your bag.

Selecting your club

A 7-iron is a perfect choice to hit the bump and run, but you can play a pitch and run shot with any iron you prefer — even a 3-iron! But a 7-iron is your best bet, because the face of the club is lofted enough to help the ball into the air and not lofted so much that it sends the ball too high. A 7-iron can get the ball easily off the turf and propel it forward.

Of course, you may face occasions when you want less loft and more distance, such as running a ball from outside 50 yards or trying to keep it under a tree branch. In these cases, a less lofted club, such as a 5-iron, may suit you. Practice with all your irons so you get comfortable with them and know how far each will send the ball and on what type of flight.
