Master the Short Game: Prioritize Close Approaches

Most misses around the green occur closer rather than further away; therefore, focusing practice on shots less than 30 yards is crucial, as these shots significantly outnumber those from 30 to 100 yards. To improve wedge play, prioritize chipping and finesse shots near the green, especially for amateur players who often face more challenging situations from the rough and sand. Practicing from various lies enhances overall performance, rather than only chipping from the fairway.
