Im not going through 2700 posts but Im sure it has been asked:
What are some good books/videos on short game playing??.... Im sick of losing so many strokes there and of course we know its the weakest part of most peoples games and If I plan on breaking 90 any time soon I need to get this under control.
As mentioned prior Im tracking at 2.06 putts per round over my last 9 rounds so while I can improve here I think its reasonable for now.
It seems a standard par 4/5 goes like this:
1st shot - Off the tee I usually get distance but do not have amazing accuracy.
2nd shot - Majority of the time I put it within 120 or less
3rd shot - If I get lucky I put it on the green or just off where I can putt, generally I ****ing duff it or skull it or catch it fat or any number of possible **** ups meaning I need to pitch/chip it again
4th shot - I probably get it on more than not here
5th/6th putts
so If I can clean up the 3rd/4th shots and put it on and avg 5s on the par 4/5s and bogey all the par 3s it adds up to a tidy 86... it seems so simple
I used to pretty much use an 8i on all my pitches and chipping but I was really limited especially when I had to drop it tight so Ive really been working on my Ws in these spots but its not working to the extent I would hope... thanks for any insight help
