There is an entire section dedicated to putting and another section all about becoming a wedge wizard because short games are that important. In my book, Wicked Smart Golf, I outline 111 ways to play better golf without changing your swing. Today, I want to help set you up for success and start shaving strokes off your scorecard… fast. Even though I only hit it 230 yards or so off the tee, I always found a way to score. Possibly the biggest reason was my short game. ![]() So how did I drop that many shots from my game? In fact, in high school I dropped 50 shots from my game in four years (124 freshmen year to 74 senior year). I once had a coach say, “Spend twice as much time practicing inside 125 yards as you do your long game and you will be amazed with results.”Īfter endless amounts of practice from short range, I can say he was 100% right. The more I play this crazy game, the more I’m convinced the fastest way to drop shots is by working on your short game.
