Short Game Golf Tips
Short Game Golf Tips
Something nobody ever taught me was how to make great shots from 50-100 yards out. I never saw it in any golf tips.
I discovered it by accident finding it much easier to hit a “full shot” to the pin than trying to hit a half shot.
The tip is to take your shortest club, for instance your sand wedge, and find out how far it will go. If it will go 100 yards then use it for a full shot at 100 yards. Then to hit a 90-yard full shot, choke down on the club about 1 inch. To hit an 80-yard full shot choke down about 2 inches. Continue checking the distances and how much you have to choke down on the club to keep hitting a full shot. By doing this, I found that I could hit a full 50-yard shot which was much more consistent and accurate than trying to hit a half shot.
If you can get up and down just one more time from 50-60 yards out on your next round, think how wonderful that would be.
If you are more consistent with half shots, maybe this golf tip isn’t for you but I think a lot of golfers are more consistent with full shots. So now is the time to start nailing those 50-100 yarders.
Good luck on the short game with this golf tip.
