Short Game Mystique: 2 hours
More than 65% of all the shots that are played in golf are taken from within 75 yards of the green. However, most golfers spend much less than 25% of their practice time on the shots that account for the scoring areas. This clinic is designed with an emphasis to take the mystique out of the scoring shots: pitching, chipping, putting, and bunker play. Following the demonstration, students will have the opportunity to work one-on-one with a member of the Instructional Staff.
