KPJ’s Cardiogolf Game Improvement Program
Heading into the last couple of weeks of the Cardiogolf Game Improvement Program, your focus should be on tightening up all areas of your game so there are no obvious weaknesses and polishing your swing technique so you can concentrate on scoring when you finally get out on the golf course this upcoming season.
During this week, we will focus on refining key scoring areas especially around the green and approach shots.
Don’t neglect your golf fitness. Continue to practice golf-specific stretches and warm up routines.

Chipping
Chipping Basics:
*The “chip shot” is used to land the ball onto the green as soon as possible.
*Weight on the front foot toward target (60/40) throughout the shot.
*Ball position is placed back of center, towards non-target foot.
* Lean the clubshaft forward toward target.
*Hands stay in front of clubhead as all times throughout the shot.
Up and Down Drill
Develop touch around the greens by simulating on-course play. Chip one ball toward the flag (a), then take your putter and putt it out (b) as if you were trying to up and down for par on the golf course. Repeat from a variety of spots around the green. This drill will increase your concentration on chip shots and improve your clutch putting.
Up and Down Drill-Chip one shot, then go putt out as if you were on the golf course. Do this from a variety of spots around the green. This is a great drill to play with a partner.
On-Course Exercise-Set aside 10 minutes of your regular practice session to practice your chipping.
Off-Course Exercise-Complete the Pre-Swing Muscle and Joint Warm Up chapter from the Cardiogolf DVD. To order your own copy of Cardiogolf visit cardiogolf .
