If you need to hit a draw on a dog-leg left hole, try ditching your driver in favour of a fairway wood. Why? You might lose a little distance, but by using more loft, you’re able to generate more sidespin. All you need to do is align your body down the right and remember to release the clubhead.

When faced with a sloping green, you shouldn’t just ignore the slopes and go straight for the flag! If you can, try and use them to your advantage to get your ball closer to the hole. In this example, TG Elite Teaching Pro Lee Scarbrow finds himself facing a chip to a flag just over the top of a ridge. ...

Being a good putter from long range requires practice and lots of it! A good routine to get into when practicing putting from distance is to pace the putt out first. Then, when you make a good putt, try and remember how the tempo felt and also the length of stroke for that length of putt. As TG Elite Teaching ...

 
Top Chipping Drill

Top Chipping Drill

Rating: 3

Lee Scarbrow, 27 August 2010 11:27

The key to consistent results when chipping is a gradual acceleration into the back of the ball. When the golfer takes the club away too quickly, it’s only natural for the club to decelerate as it comes back to the ball. This will often lead to fat and thin chip shots and an almost certain bogey! A great drill to ...

When faced with a long bunker shot from a greenside trap, it’s easy for us to get quick and jabby through impact in a last-ditch attempt to achieve the required distance.

Many golfers of all abilities draw a straight line on their golf ball to help them align the putter on the green. But why stop there? Any chance you get to handle your ball before striking it, use this to advantage by aligning a line on your ball to your intended target. Rory McIlroy did this during the first round ...

 
Don't Shank Chip Shots

Don't Shank Chip Shots

Rating: 3.5

Lee Scarbrow, 30 September 2009 10:07

Don't be fooled into thinking a shank is a horror shot that just creeps into your long game - it can filter down to your short game too! The shanked chip is often the consequence of a bad address. If the shoulders sit too far open at address, the right elbow tucked in close to the side, the club is forced ...

The key to hitting straight shots starts with the backswing. If you start your golf swing incorrectly, it is very difficult to compensate for this with your downswing and through impact. In this tip, we rebuild your backswing step-by-step to get you on the correct swing plane and set in an ideal position at the top ready to unleash consistently ...
