My passion for anatomy and helping you become an elite ball striker is hopefully well known, but it is around the greens where my true love lies. No matter your current skill level, your short game can become the most fun area to work on, if you approach it with right right strategy.
My goal with this section is to bring you clarity on the fastest way to improve your short game. Whether you are a recreational player struggling with the yips or a touring professional looking for those marginal gains, there is always room for growth.
If your short game needs a complete overhaul, I've got you covered. We'll build solid foundations with a deeper technical understanding, then sharpen your skills by analyzing the variables at play. Together, we'll develop a versatile range of shots that allow you to answer any challenge the course throws your way.
If on the other hand you just require minor tweaks, like finding the grip that matches your release, handling those tricky uphill wet lies into the grain, or perfecting the receipe to hit your premium low spinner more frequently, I can design a custom solution tailored to your needs.
Ultimately, if you're looking for someone to help spark your creativity around the greens and craft your ultimate short game training plan, I am there to provide just that, with options that are tour proven.
For every short game shot, there is an intricate dialogue between the lie, the landing area and the delivery.
I believe that elevating the quality of this dialogue, is where short game mastery lies.
Building efficacy and versatility in the execution is only one piece of the puzzle.
Improving your skills will definitely expand your options, with new combinations of spin and height,
or improved ground interactions to navigae different lies.
You do need to have a plan to improve those skills.
But it certainly can't be your only strategy for short game growth.
The quality of your lie assessment along with choosing a landing spot that is adapted to the slope and run out you're facing is vital to getting up and down consistently.
Do these only 50% right - choose a spot that is too small,
or that doesn't allow for spin and carry variance,
and you'll end up with very little margin for error, requiring perfect execution.
And we all know that when the answer is ''just do this perfectly'',
pressure skyrockets, and the likelihood of successful execution plumets.
Envisioning a shot you don't have the confidence or the skills to pull off can also speel trouble.
That's why this dialogue is about balancing what is possible, reasonable, and likely.
The sweet spot lies in finding the balance between consistency, proximity and margin for error.
To me the ability to balance this equation as you please is what makes the short game fascinating.
Assess, choose, execute.
Refining these elements with drills specifically designed to stress one or the other can only lead you to a better short game.
