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.

Monday-Chipping Practice

Today-Tuesday-Pitching and Sand Practice

Wednesday-Putting Practice

Thursday-Short Irons Practice

Friday-Practicing from within 100 yards

Pitching Basics

*The Pitch Shot spends more time in the air than on the ground.

*Use a lofted club like a pitching or sand wedge.

*Open your stance.

*Ball position in the middle.

* Weight on forward foot.

Hinge wrists on the backswing.

*Hit down to make the ball go up in the air.

Sand Basics

*Use sand wedge-open the clubface and open your stance.

*Ball more forward in stance.

*Hinge wrists on backswing as you swing outside the target line.

*Splash the sand and keep the clubface open through impact.

Scoring Tip

When you practice pitching and sand shot, try to hole out each shot.  You’ll be surprised how much closer you can get the ball to the hole with a “make it” mind-set.
