Accept rollout from hardpan
The lie is hardpan with a downslope, and the ball cannot go in the air from there. Keep the leading edge down, play the ball a little back, and use a little hinge in a hinged-release-one motion. The ball is expected to come off hotter and run out on a very firm, baked green.
