golfers can be a good short game players, ie., hit shots inside 100 yards to
a spot very close to the target, so you always give yourself a makable putt
to save the up and down. once you have a good short game, shooting in the
70s should not be that difficult. "
Trust me, this statement is not true at all. You won't have a good short
game if you don't have a decent long game. Breaking 80's is much farther

Many local good golfers (most of them are pros) play the game reguarly. It
is not surprised to see low scores like under, even, 70's.
I played like sh*t for the past 4 times. One reason is, it was always more

1. lower body too active. notice your take-away is even initiated by hip
turn(3 and 8 iron back view), it will make your upswing way too inside.
better start it by arm/shoulder turn and keep your lower body as quiet as
possible.
2. spine angle not very consistent during the whole swing. of course it's
quite hard for most golfers.
3. during downswing, you uncock your wrist too early. this will
significantly affect your distance. my suggestion is to slow down your |

发帖数: 904 | 20 if you can tee off to 220+ using an iron, then there's no need to hit woods
in anything under 400 yards.
when hitting woods, espcially driver, you really have to think if there's
room to miss. if the penalty is severe for missing the fairway, it's
probably not a good idea to hit the driver. for golfers such as yourself,
who are most likely very good iron players, the rewards of getting extra
yardage off the tee is very marginal as long as you can reach the green on
your next shot.

So after working hard and focused on a change when it becomes grooved then
it will be consistent. The problem is that most golfers never work long

you perform your down swing, at what plane you release your hinge.(when your

Golfers, normally, don't have to try the prime time, if time is available
