Mulled

A golf shot played without full commitment or confidence, typically resulting in poor contact and weak ball flight due to deceleration through impact. Mulled shots often occur when golfers become tentative or indecisive during the swing, leading to inconsistent contact and disappointing results. This term reflects the mental aspect of golf and the importance of committing fully to each shot. Overcoming mulled shots requires confidence building, proper practice, and developing trust in swing mechanics. Understanding the concept helps golfers recognize when they're not committing fully to their swings.
