A golfer is said to have made a punch shot when they hit a low golf shot, typically with a four, five, or six iron, that assists them in maneuvering out of difficulty.
When a golfer is faced with a tree in front of them, for instance, they might use a punch shot to get the ball under the tree and back into the fairway on the other side.
Usage
I believe that you are going to require a punch shot in order to escape from those trees!
