Golf coach Aimee Cho teaches actor Kim Byung-se how to properly execute a high, soft-landing flop shot. Learn essential setup adjustments, clubface opening techniques, and swing commitment needed to pop the ball high into the air around the green.
Open the clubface open wide before establishing your grip.

Maintain steady speed and swing along your stance line without decelerating through impact.
Trust the loft of the club to elevate the ball rather than trying to scoop it.
