INSIGHT

Why Wedges Can Be Deceiving

  • Practicing with wedges can create a false sense of confidence due to their higher loft.
  • The same swing errors are magnified with lower lofted clubs, revealing hidden flaws.
ADVICE

Choosing the Right Irons for Practice

  • Tailor your iron selection to your skill level, finding a balance between challenge and frustration.
  • Advanced players can use longer irons, while beginners should stick to shorter ones for manageable feedback.
ADVICE

Focus on One Skill at a Time

  • Focus your practice on a single skill at a time, rather than trying to improve everything at once.
  • Identify your weaknesses and address them individually for more effective improvement.
