Playing a side-hill lie

[Dixieman]

How do you play a side-hill lie? Do you aim right or left of your target to take into account the lie? Or do you go into the shot setup and then open or close your club face to take the angle of the lie into account? I've been doing the latter for a while now and like it much more than the former. How do y'all do it? FYI, I use the classic swing type, so I'm not sure how this would work (or not) using RTS or PowerStroke.

No adjusting the clubface with RTS. I don't know about Powerstroke. The ball will move toward the downhill of the slope. For a slope to the right, I will aim more to the left - more or less depending on the severity of the slope. Unlike real golf, where you can double-cross yourself and go the other way, Links does as you would expect. Wind will complicate things however. There is no set formula.

No adjusting the club face with Powerstroke either. Just a case of aiming off, or if you want to risk it, try and miss the snap by enough to get the required shot.
