00:00Under clubbing is an absolute epidemic amongst handicapped golfers and the stats bear that out.
00:07Everyone over a 10 handicap is actually more likely to miss it short than hit the green from
00:13150 yards and when you move to a 20 handicap you will hit half short. So that is an incredibly
00:21high
00:21number which shows we are doing something wrong Adam. Why is that the case and what can we do to
00:26fix it? Most people think they hit it further than they do. So what I like to do is get
00:31a yardage
00:31not only to the flag but to the back of the green. When I get a yardage to the back
00:36of the green I know
00:37what I'm really working with. So here I've got 150 yards to the flag I've got 165 to the back
00:42of the
00:43green so I'm going to choose a club that I know goes a minimum of 150 and a maximum of
00:47165 rather
00:49than a lot of golfers are choosing a club that goes the maximum distance for the yardage that's why
00:53they come up short. And also here we look you can see there's a bunker short. Typically there is more
00:59danger short than long so if you are going to miss to be honest favouring long a lot of the
01:05time
01:05is actually a bit better. Yeah and I think it's great you know I played the game as a kid
01:10and this
01:10is a really great way of doing it. I gave myself a point every time I got past the flag
01:14and that way
01:15I kind of changed the instead of thinking about trying to get it just on the green or near I
01:20was making
01:21sure I got it passed all the time and in reality I actually was getting it much closer. Great stuff
01:25let's see you hit one into this flag and past it hopefully. Let's go past it yeah.
01:39Looks good and there you go on the green but just past the flag brilliant stuff.
