Colin Montgomerie: I’m Colin Montgomerie and I’m here today at The Carrick on Loch Lomond to give you some golfing tips.

Colin: So here we are at par 5, decision time, we love this, don’t we? The average amateur loves this decision. What do we do? You know, we’ve got 210 yards to a pin that’s located as you see in a very tight position on the left hand side, over some bunkers and Loch Lomond is on our left. Dangerous. We have room on the right hand side to go to or do we play it safe? So the 18 handicapper is not going to pull off this shot, 1 in 50 might happen, so what I’d advise the average amateur to do is a hit a very simple seven iron, which I’ll show you in a minute, over this bunker on the right and in with his wedge. Safe five, possible four. This club, for the average amateur, brings in the word six, brings in the word seven, all sorts of problems can arise. So I’ll do this for you now because I’m not the average amateur. Right, here we go. Hopefully. OK. 210 yards. This is my 20 degree hybrid, going to aim on the right hand side of the green as it does, and hopefully two put for my birdie. But, I would encourage the average amateur, if you don’t mind me coming over here to my bag, picking up my seven iron and hitting this as I would advise amateurs to do over this right hand bunker, on the right hand side, giving myself room to come in to the pin on the left. As I say, easy five, possible four and you’re going to walk off with a birdie, let’s hope.
