Do you often, or even ever move hour hands closer to the head of
the club by choking down on the grip?
I guess it is a thing that many of us forget to do.

For the delicate shots around the green, choking down on the grip
allows for much more control and feel of these shots.

Don’t forget you can use any club to make these shots, and the one to use is
usually the one that will place your ball on the green and allow it
to run from just on the green to the hole.

This is much more accurate than trying to loft the ball to the hole and hope it will
stop.
It takes a little practice to hit say, an 8 iron five feet
onto the putting surface just beyond the fringe.

However, an 8 iron may be needed to get the amount of run that you want.

So, you need to practice with several clubs so that you have the feel for each
and know what each will do.
Spend a great deal of time at this practice as it is so important and almost the total basis for reducing your score and handicap.

Make sure you can put the ball where you want it every time
and understand the type of swing you are making, pinching the ball,
or almost putting the ball, and using the loft of the club to send the ball to land on the spot,
how much back swing, firm wrists, wristy shots.

All these have to be worked out to suit you
as this sort of chip is as unique as your putting grip. stance and stroke

Don’t move on to the next club until you are totally consistent with the club you are using.
As before, if you can go out onto the course and practice with a
real green, you will benefit greatly.

At the same time, if you are having difficulty hitting the ball
sweetly, try standing closer to the ball.

Experiment with distances from the ball. Standing closer to the ball will allow you to hit it sweetly with a nice square club face.

Break your swing up into several parts. At the address position, your arms and chest form a triangle.

Practice the take away by moving this triangle in one piece without changing any of the angles, which means no wrist movement.

Take your club to waist height and stop there.
Practice this over and over again, during the day when you have an odd moment.
You do not have to have a club in your hand.
Simply adopt the grip position of the hands by holding your left thumb with your right hand.
It is essential that you do not use your wrists in the take away.

Next take your swing to the top and look at your hand and arm position.
Assume this position by performing your backswing at odd moments.

Next start the down swing by turning your left hip, and then continue the next part of the down swing until you are just behind the ball.

This time with a club, note the squareness or otherwise of the club face.

Next, with a club, start with club head just behind the ball and continue your swing making sure you have firm wrists and that you are hitting with you arms.
Continue through to the finish of the follow through, making sure that your right forearm crosses over your left on the way.

Practising during the day as often as you can will result in a grooved swing for you that will happen each time you hit the ball with very little conscious thought or mental input from you.

When you are 90 yards out from the green, or closer, do you ever notice that your pitch shots are not crisp, they run along the ground or do not travel the required distance to rise in the air and land softly beside the hole?

The first thing to do is have a look at your grip.

This is number one on your check list.
However, I doubt if this will be the problem.

Next have a look at your swing and see if it is too full.

If it is too full, you will decelerate on your down swing.
This is because you know a full swing will go too far.
As a result you will try to compensate by hitting the ball more gently.

The only way you can do this is to decelerate if the back swing is too full.
This means that you are not hitting your golf shot with the correct firmness or authority.

You will have to correct this on the practice fairway.

Start with a short distance and see if you can achieve this with a minimum of swing.

You will have to hit the ball quite hard to achieve what you are trying to do.
This means firmness, crispness and authority.
This is what you want.

Try to get the feel of this and take it out onto the course.

Next try to hit the ball different distances using the same technique.

Move to the nine iron from your pitching wedge when the distance is so great that you have to strain and lose accuracy.

Pretend your golf club is the big hand of a clock.
Find out how far the ball travels when you take your club back to 8, 9, 10, 11 o clock while hitting with the same firmness and authority.
