My Short Game Featured On PGA.com’s Free Lesson Friday

My putting is great.  My fairways hit is about 80%.  If I miss a green in regulation though, I’m in trouble. As a current 2.5 handicap I struggle with my short game.  When I hit greens I can shoot in the low 70’s or high 60’s.  If I miss greens it can be ugly, as my up-and-down percentage, which I track with GolfStats, is about 20-25%.  As they say on Twitter: #lame.

I had the opportunity to submit my video to PGA.com for a lesson on their cool new feature, Free Lesson Fridays.  FLF is a fun and educational part of PGA.com in which renowned golf teachers help out folks who submit their questions and game issues.  My lesson, linked here or by clicking the image below, was quite an eye opener.

I didn’t realize I broke my left arm.  Shoot. I have the dreaded left arm chicken wing!  Somebody kill me now.  I also didn’t know that my short game shots were mostly hands and not shoulders.  And last I didn’t realize the club head passed my hands.  These are all things I know are not good, but didn’t realize I was doing them until a PGA instructor showed me.

I’m thankful for the video lesson, and for PGA.com exposing my weak short game to millions of their readers.  Exposing my short game to the public is worse than those naked pictures I accidentally posted online of myself, the ones with the lamp shade.  That’s a post for another day…
