Today we talk about the short game, and in particular, tough shots around the green.  The biggest problem with most amateur golfers is that they very seldom, if ever, practice these shots.  Find a chipping green at your club and create shots that you would typically find out on the golf course and practice them.  You won't be sorry!

We face tough shots around the green every time we play.  So why would you not practice these shots to lower your score?  You see the PGA and LPGA players hitting great shots around the green to save their par if they have missed the green.  How do they do that?  Practice! 

Find really tough spots on your short game area at your club around the green, put down 20 balls, and hit them all to the same spot.  Don't worry if the first few are not good.  Keep hitting shots until you can hit more good shots than bad.  This has a huge effect on your mental game.  You develop confidence, so when you are faced with this shot on the course, you know exactly how to play the shot because you've practiced it.  Lower scores are the result!
