Short Game - Advanced Swing Motion

Tip: The further back the ball the lower the ball flight.

Tip: The closer you stand to the ball the more control you have.

Many golfers incorrectly believe that short shots require a steep angle of attack.  This causes them to create narrow overly descending swing actions leading to a variety of poor shots - deep divots, hitting behind the ball, topping or thinning.

Remember:

All swings must have width combined with direction, angle of approach, club face control and appropriate speed.
