Small bucket of range balls. Hit with a mid-iron first until I'm swinging well, then move to a hybrid, then a wedge, and the driver for the last 6 or 7 balls. Then the first tee.
Putting doesn't need warm-up IMO,...
Chipping and pitching, definitely. My full swings and putts make me look like a golfer who should score at least 10 under what I actually score. The difference is what happens when I miss the green in regulation. That...
One thing not mentioned yet is that although your left arm and your shoulders appear to be on the same plane (generally a good thing), that plane looks quite flat. Try to turn the shoulders a little more steeply, so that you feel...
