Take a hybrid 3 and swing it like a putter- You will need to choke up and, the longer the distance, the longer the stroke. Just hit one like this and the ball rolled right to the cup.

Depends on the conditions, the grass, and the distance from the front of the green to the hole. The ball is sitting up high enough to make clean contact. Assuming any lofted shot is impossible, and therefore you can’t put significant spin on the ball, I’d consider a punch chip with my 20 or 23 hybrid or a 4/5 wood. IF you can land the ball on the short grass — say, a foot to the left of the dark green edge of the rough — it looks as if it will kick slightly left, take a short hop onto the green, end up below the hole. (Right to left slope, yes?) This assumes that the grass is a little wet, just enough to grab the ball and take the zip off the shot.

Cautions: 1) Don’t get greedy and aim directly at the flag. A slight push or a funky bounce will put you in the bunker. 2) In deciding how hard to hit it, determine whether it’s better to miss short or long. Adjust accordingly. 3) If you hit the shot I’ve suggested, it will probably look ugly: a low squirrelly pop ‘n plop…
