How does squirt impact a pool shot?
Squirt refers to the deviation of the cue ball's path from the aim line due to using side english. This can impact a pool shot because the cue ball will not be traveling where you are aiming exactly, and so you will not execute the shot as intended. If you are hitting the cue ball with right english (on the right side of the cue ball, as you are looking at it down on the shot), the cue ball will have a tendency to squirt to the left as you stroke through the cue ball. The amount of squirt depends on how far to the right you hit the cue ball (vs a center ball hit on the aim line) and how hard you hit the cue ball.
When playing golf if a ball lands behind a tree and is not playable where can the drop shot be taken from Is the player allowed to go back as far as he wants?
You have 3 options. 1. Go back to where you played your previous shot from, 2. Go back as far as you want, on a straight line, keeping your ball between you and the pin, no nearer the hole. 3. Or take two club lengths from where your ball is, no closer to the hole. All of these options carry a one shot penalty.
What if a player hits his ball in the woods off the tee?
There is two options open to you, they each cost you a penalty stroke. You can replay the ball from the tee (which will be your 3rd shot), or you can take a drop. To take the drop, you can go back as far as you want, keep the point where the ball entered the hazard between you and the flag and drop the ball (the next shot will also be your 3rd). As it is a water hazard, you do not need to get the ball, as long as you saw the ball enter the hazard, you are allowed to play another ball.
How much do you open club-face when chipping?
It depends on the shot you want to hit. If you want the ball to roll then you should keep the clubface square and go into a forward press. When hitting a pitch shot you can play anything from 55º to 65º depending on your swing speed and how far you want to fly the ball. Anything much more than 65º would be a flop shot.

Placing the ball at the back of your stance will effectively make the ball fly lower and farther. By placing the ball at the back of your stance you are decreasing the loft of the club. If you want to hit a high shot move the ball forward but remember it will not go as far.
