Yank

« Back to Glossary Index

Yank:

Yank is an uncontrolled pull shot that lands very far from the target. For right-handed golfers, the ball flies to the left of the intended target (to the right of the target for left-handed golfers). The ball curves so much that such a shot can no longer be called a hook nor a pull.

Other name: Jerk
