A Thin is where you contact the ball with the leading edge of the face, where ground is unlikely to enter the equeasion. the resulting shot is likely to be a lot lower than it should be, it is also known as a skull, or skulled shot
Soft feel, refers to the ball used & tghe feeling off the face of the putter especially &other clubs. The softness of a ball is either in the cover or in the core of the ball, though there is with some balls a third layer called the mantel layer. Hence 2 layer, 3, layer & even 4 layer balls.
Flopshots are high flying soft landing shots often with lofted clubs usually with the face of the club opened up which increases the natural loft of the club, nice shot to master, & very satisfying to see, really is for those who like to show off when a standard shot would have done, though has its place. But not for the faint hearted, as needs lots of practice to avoid thin shots or even the dreaded shank.
Medal play is where you are counting each shot in what is tearmed stroke play, in other words what you generally see on the television.
Shank, a shot caught off the hozel, or in plaininglish the stick where it is moulded into the face of the club.
Loft is the angle of the face of the club
Bounce is the angle of relief on the sole, or underneath of the club & litterally is the bounce the club has. For instance a wedge with 4 degreesof bounce is a lot flatter to the ground & less likely to bounce & more likely to dig into the ground in certain players hands, but great on hard fairways & links courses in summer. High bounce or bounce of say 10degree 12 degree or 14 degree, is where at address the front of the club is likely to sit off the ground & the back of the sole against the ground when the shaft is straight down, though will be lessened where the shaft is angled back in the stance, giving lots of bounce. High bounce clubs are often sand wedges, this is why some people have problems using sand wedges off fairways as the bounce is too great.
Bounce game not sure about that one.
Any others ?
