Hitting your pitches the right distance is important.  But if your direction is off, it is just as bad as not controlling your distance.  The importance of pitching is to improve your proximity to the hole.  How close do you hit your pitches to the hole consistently?  By having a lesson with a Flightscope or Trackman Launch Monitor, your instructor can measure your tendencies in a much more accurate manner. 

It is important to know whether you tend to push or pull your shots but to know the distance you push or pull your shots.  Knowing this, you can then aim that exact amount to the left or right of the target on the golf course and improve your pitching dramatically without changing your swing, particularly if you are the type of golfer who does not practice much. Your improvement will be almost instantaneous.  Now, who wouldn't like that!

You can do this with your longer irons and wood shots as well.
