Hitting bump and runs or other pitch shots fat can likely be fixed without doing more than making a slight setup adjustment. Many amateurs start with their hands too low, which causes the heel of the club to make first contact with the ground.

Instead, stand the shaft up more vertically, utilize a slight forward-press and experiment with using your putting grip for this shot to get more consistent and favorable results.
