  • Short Game Practice Time That Lowers Scores

    I really enjoy walking through the short game practice area watching players practice their short game. I see the majority hitting ball after ball at the same pin with the same club. I watch other players doing the same thing, except with their lob wedge from 20 yards away. The good news is they are...

  • Get a Feel for the 'Chip-Putt'

    By Andrew Park Senior Instructor, DLGA In two minds whether to chip or putt? You get the best of both worlds with this cute little shot – the so-called 'chip-putt'. Anytime you are within a yard or so of the putting surface, you can take away the uncertainty of running/putting the ball through...

  • The Big Feeling - Pitching

    By Denis Pugh Golf International Teaching Professional FINE-TUNE YOUR TOUCH Good players use the length of swing and the 'turnspeed' of their body to control their pitching distance. Using the 'speedo' principle certainly gives you a good feeling to work on: i.e. for a 40-yard pitch shot...

  • Short Game - Speciality Shots

    Keith Williams, PGA Master Professional Rescue Run-Up Low and running A choice of clubs is possible here - a rescue or hybrid club or even a lofted wood. It is usually played from just off the green when perhaps a lofted club is too difficult to play or a chip shot will not offer a reliable bounce. Grip...

  • The Big Feeling - Chipping

    By Denis Pugh Golf International Teaching Professional The 'big' feeling that I want you to focus on with the chipping action is to turn your upper body over still legs. Nine times out of ten, mis-hits and generally poor ball control ball in the short game can be traced back to over-active legs...

  • Total Recoil

    By Steve Wakulsky DLGA DIRECTOR OF TRAINING AND CERTIFICATION WORLDWIDE David Leadbetter Golf Academy, Champions' Gate, Orlando We've all been in this situation: you go after a tight pin, closely guarded by a bunker, and wind up just short in the protecting bunker. The ball ends up just a few...

  • Short Game Key To Tiger Woods' Success

    Tiger Woods has hit some amazing shots in his career. He drove the green on a 347-yard hole at Doral. He hit 6-iron from 218 yards out of a bunker and over the water in Canada. His most famous shot might be the chip-in at the Masters that made a hairpin turn at the top of the ridge on the 16th green...

  • The Short Game and What It Can Do for You

    By Randy Smith I'm fairly convinced the short game is where it's at when it comes to lowering your handicap. Shots saved really do wonders for a player's confidence, no matter what the handicap. While we all can cover 400 yards in the first two or three shots, it's those last three or...

  • Soft Hands Are The Key To Pitching

    By Padraig Harrington I'm often asked when a chip turns into a pitch. My answer is 'when the length of the shot requires you to make even the smallest pivot, which, for me, equates to somewhere around the 60-yard mark. The best strategy is to see your pitches as 'mini-shots' that are...

  • The First Rule of Chipping: Lean Left

    By Padraig Harrington Week-in, week-out, I see the same basic chipping error committed by at least one of my pro-am partners. Even before they attempt to play the shot, they are clearly thinking about lifting the ball up into the air. You can see it in the set-up. The usual symptoms are a dropping of...
