STINGER!
Golf Digest Middle East|July 2020
There’s one shot I hit that gets crowds more amped than any other: my stinger.
- Tiger Woods
STINGER!

I developed this low-flying tee shot in the late ’90s to make sure I could compete in any condition. The stinger would give me an advantage on windy Open Championship days when you really can’t control anything that flies too high.

It wasn’t an easy shot to master. I had to get stronger, particularly in my forearms, to be able to cut off the swing just after impact to hit this shot. After a ton of range work, I felt comfortable bringing it out in the competition. And it’s been a trusty constant—with slight variations—throughout my career and all my swing changes.

Here’s something you might not know: I didn’t come up with the name “stinger.” This very magazine gets the credit.

Get Set - Ball-striking success starts at address

AMATEURS OFTEN STAND OVER THE BALL with their feet too wide apart. I understand the appeal—they want to feel more stable throughout the swing, and a wider stance seems a logical way to achieve that.
