Short Game – How to Gain Control Around the Greens

Short game improvement is the key to lower scores on long, saturated golf courses.

Dear GLA Family,

Need some short game tips to navigate swampy course conditions?

It’s rained and rained and the courses are playing longer.

Playing from further away makes it more difficult to hit the green. 

Watch this video and get better at getting up and down!

You’ll learn some easy plays to get the ball close to the hole:

  • Identify your landing spot.
  • Gauge your air time / roll time. 
  • Choose the right club.
  • Learn from what the ball does.

You’ll turn those 3s and 4s around the green into 2s.

And you’ll enjoy slopping through the mud as you shoot lower scores and win more cash from your friends!

Golf Expectations vs. Reality

Dear GLA Family,

Sometimes you hit great shots all day and post a high score.

Other times you score lower when you don’t strike it well.

How can this be?

Watch this video and clear your mind.

Controlling what you can control will help you:

  • Align your expectations with reality.
  • Reduce stress and tension.
  • Eliminate doubt and uncertainty. 

Your time on the golf course will be more enjoyable and your scores will begin to trend lower.

Sincerely,

Ben and Chad
