Blair,
Thank you for your tip and the explanation of why it works (shorter swing, less room for error than when we tend to use one of our wedges). I started doing what you explained after watching Golfpass, when Gary Player explained the same thing. Since using lower-lofted clubs, my feel and touch have gotten better, and I'm leaving the ball much closer to the pin and getting many more one-putts and pars.

Do you always choke up at the base of the grip for these shots?

Thanks Amy. I always enjoy your drills. They have helped me.

thank you good advice

thanks, playing smart like this, is the only way i will be able to lower my score.

There is something wrong with your site. Every video I play pauses every 4-5 seconds, Before you start in on my internet connection, I get over 300 meg download speeds. Videos normally work at 30 meg.

Interesting I did a similar practice the other day, but I added the hybrid. Great tip!
Do you grip the clubs differently?
