But, "most" golfers suffer from a "core" set of common problems (the instructors here know what they are)...throwaway, head moving, bad posture, etc, etc, etc. Given that, what are your top 3 drills for "your typical 10-15 handicap" to work on??? What should we "fix" first, second, third. Please list Thanks 1) Pitching to a green from 50 yards in. Good for educating hands and for the score. It will improve short game as well as improve timing and geometry in the full stroke. IMO full strokes are often too hard to feel what's actually going on. 2) Putting. Maintaining the flying wedges (right and left hand) from adress/impact fix through impact. Maintain the lag for distance control and a stable clubface through impact. As a variation - putt with the leading edge of the sand wedge. 3) Mental - during play. a) Always try to accept your results and move on - weather it's a triple or three birdies in a row. b) Monitor your mental state. Are you upset - are you boiling inside - are you focused - are you calm - are you tense? etc. c) Strategise by the percentages. d) Always try to use one shot less than likely on the short game. It installs a positive attitude and makes it a lot easier to accept mistakes - and every once in a while you get a few strokes back as well.
