Sorry for the very quick responses… busy night here, but I wanted to add quickly to what @Ty_Webb said: Control the distance of the swing by controlling the length of the backswing, not the speed with which you hit it. -

This is me trying to fingerprint my tubb-cheeks against the wall. The instinct to extend up through the impact is overpowering. Will continue internalizing with the wall drill. -

With the putts, are they coming up short of the hole? Or just missing low side, but going 10-15 inches past the hole? Generally speaking I think long putting is about speed control, while short putting is more about start line. Both matter to both types obviously, but I think that's where the more weight lives. If you're struggling on short putts but not long ones, I'd imagine that's more likely a starting line issue. Might be read or might be aim or might be stroke. If you're leaving the short ones short of the hole, then hit them harder. You don't want to be accelerating into impact. Just make sure your back swing is long enough for the speed you're hitting it. For the wedges, I'll be interested to hear what people say because I have similar issues sometimes. Last fall, hit a good drive on a fairly short par 4. Had 60 yards in. Hit my second. Then had 50 yards in because I laid the sod over it. Then I had 40 yards back from the other side because I over corrected and bladed it over the green. Happens to the best of us 🙂 -

Wanted to get some thoughts on struggles I've been having with my game. 1. Short putts - I'm a pretty good lag putter but when I get closer (10 feet and in) the ball just seems to come off dead, quickly trail off and miss on the low side. I feel like it's just a lack of acceleration causing the miss but wanted to see if it could possibly be something else. If it is an acceleration issue, any drills to help with this? 2. Partial Wedges (50 - 85 yards) - Any time I don't have a full wedge shot I struggle to make solid contact. 85% of my misses is the dreaded skull that barely gets a foot off the ground. The other 15% of my misses I'm laying the sod over the ball and it goes no where. Even when I practice these shots on the range, I'll hit some decent then the thin shot seems to come out of nowhere. Then I focus on staying down through the ball and hit one heavy. I do go through times where I hit these shots decent but I never have been able to get rid of these misses. I'm at a point of analysis paralysis and just need some thoughts on what to do to get these shots back on track. -

Good Afternoon, I recently interviewed 1991 Open Champion and all time putting great/guru, Ian Baker Finch. Ian provided an amazing amount of good info. A tremendous amount of valuable putting insight for golfers of all levels! Tiger is the GOAT! His thoughts on Greg Norman and LIV. What's wrong with Jordan Spieth's putting. Putting cost Adam Scott more majors. The yips cost Tom Watson the Open in 2009. Time for LIV players and Tour players to unite, let bygones be bygones. Enjoy! All done in the interest of fighting cancer!! Chris O'Gorman
