    Thanks for that, its definitely work in progress and by far the weakest part of my game. Having said that 12 months ago I couldnt hit my driver now I feel so confident with it and am really consistent. I played yesterday and did 102, including 5 shots in one bunker and 2 in another, plus at...

    Gutted with my short game

I am fairly solid off the Tee, with my irons and fairway woods etc. I am also reasonable at putting and have broken 90 a few times but pitching and chipping is an absolute mystery to me. If I fail to get on the green with a full approach shot I am in...
