Practice with purpose
Mastering ups and downs
 
 
Most amateur golfers hit less than half of the greens in regulation, so getting up and down consistently is invaluable. Practice games are an excellent way to develop those scrambling skills.
 
Have you tried the par-18 challenge?
Set down nine balls at different spots around the practice green and try to get each one up and down in two shots. The closer you get to par-18 on this challenge, the more shots you’ll see off your scorecard.
 
This is an excellent benchmarking skills test that’s well worth challenging yourself with at least once a month.

Building consistency off the tee, while finding ways to go further, will open the pathway to better scores AND more holes to enjoy. It even makes the walk and social banter more fun to know you’re well-placed.
 
 
The latest technology is part of the solution to a better game, but we also need to start you off correctly at setup. Many golfers set up aiming wide right (right-handers). The ball position will likely lower the launch angle and lose metres. And poor posture won’t make a good rotation easy to achieve, causing inconsistency and a further loss of distance.
 
Change the game
When did you upgrade your game from the tee? If you’re competitive, then significantly reducing the distance to the hole on your 2nd, changes the game. If you want to explore ‘further’ AND ‘better’
