Thin shot
A poor shot where the clubhead strikes too high up on the ball, resulting in a shallow flight path. Also known as "skulling" or "blading" the ball.

Thin: To hit the ball thin is to strike it too high, and often times with the leading edge of the club. This usually results in a slice or a very low trajectory — also known as “skulling' the ball or “topping' the ball.

By keeping your weight forward, it allows you to make a steeper swing to cut through the heavy rough. A narrow stance prevents lower body sway that frequently results in "skulling" the ball across the green.

Also known as "skulling" or "blading" the ball.
Through line: When putting, the imaginary path that a ball would travel on should the putted ball go past the hole.

The higher the bounce angle, the more the leading edge of the club will be above the ground level as the clubhead is swung through impact. The higher the bounce angle, the higher the probability of skulling approach shots from firm fair ways.
