Afternoon all!
Played my second round yesterday, and finished 10 shots less than my first. I've gotten rid of the driver and replaced it with a 15.5 degree hybrid (Cleveland Mashie) to use off the tee, so I'm hitting the fairway more often. That's where the 10 shots have come from.
For my next progression, I think I need a better short game. A full swing from my PW will be pretty accurate, but anything under 100 yards I'm really struggling with. I've tried choking down on the club, but that just puts my accuracy out.
I need to practice! But where? What I'm after is a driving range but with grass, not mats. Does anyone know of anywhere in Hampshire (Portsmouth, Southampton, or anywhere inbetween).
Do people on here use proper practice areas? Or would you just take your wedges down to your local park?
And finally, are there any good drills to do? Or is just a case of aiming for a target from different distances and lies to get better?
Any advice would be greatfully recieved.
