Stay relaxed around the greens


Top 25 Coach Gary Smith

A stiff set-up position will result in a jerky movement and unpredictable results.

Remember that short game success relies on combining a sound technique with a soft touch.

Improve your feel by taking a relaxed stance at address

Let your hands hang down before gripping the club so you can set your body in a flexible and comfortable position.

Flex your knees (as if you were skiing) and place 70% of your weight on the ball of your left foot.

From this comfortable, yet athletic, position you are free to deliver an effective stroke.
