Golf Tip of the Month  

 

Are your wedge shots coming up short?   

 

If you have wedge shots that fly high and short of the green, you may be making some fundamental mistakes. Make sure that you do not have the ball too far forward in your stance. You should have your hands ahead of the ball at your setup, with the shaft leaning back to the ball. Make a three-quarter backswing and accelerate down and through the ball. Never try to scoop or help the ball into the air. Get the feeling of making a short, compact swing that delivers a solid strike on the ball, sending it up so that it carries to the green and then hits and stops. Another great swing to try if you are coming up short is to make the top of the flagstick your target. This will allow you to make a more aggressive swing to get the ball onto the green.
