The short answer: grip the club firmly enough that it never moves in your hands, but softly enough that your wrists stay mobile and your arms stay relaxed. The pressure belongs in the last fingers and...
The short answer: a launch monitor is worth it if you use it to measure a few specific things and practise with a purpose. It isn't worth it if you just chase numbers after every swing. For most amate...
The short answer: you flip because your body stops turning and your pressure stays on your trail foot, so the bottom of your swing moves behind the ball and your hands have to throw the clubhead past ...
The short answer: you compress your irons by striking the ball before the ground, with the shaft leaning towards the target at impact, so the bottom of your swing arc sits about four inches in front o...
The short answer: most steep swings are built in the backswing. Either your arms lift the club up without your chest turning, or they pull it around your body with a cupped lead wrist, and the shaft e...
The short answer: practise the way you play. Give every ball a target and a routine, make a realistic practice swing about two balls away that actually hits the ground, change club and target often in...
The short answer: start reading the slope before you reach your ball. Find the straight uphill line through the hole, work out which side of it your ball sits on, feel how steep the slope is through y...
The short answer: go for the green only when your realistic miss is still safe. Decide using your lie, the carry you need compared with the carry you hit on an average swing, and what the trouble arou...
The short answer: open the clubface before you take your grip, set the ball forward with most of your weight on your lead foot, and make a long swing that splashes the sole of the club through the san...
The short answer: rarely. A 58 or 60 degree wedge already sends the ball high, so a normal pitch with a lofted club is the better choice for most shots around the green. Play a true lob only when you ...
The short answer: for most golfers, tee the ball so about half of it sits above the top edge of your driver at address, with the ball positioned opposite your lead heel. That height makes it easier to...
The short answer: most three-putts are caused by poor speed on the first putt, not a bad line on the second. Fix your distance control by matching the length of your backstroke and through-stroke, rea...
The short answer: to break 90 you need to shoot 89 or better. On a par 72 course that is just one shot better than bogey golf. You don't need more distance or a new swing. You need to get rid of the b...
