Short game help...Is there a theory behind it?
So, I wanted to learn poker. I bought Theory of Poker and found 2+2 and learned all this cool stuff about poker. Played a couple hundred thousand hands and proved to myself that I can "beat the game"(by my standards).
I've been golfing recreationaly for about 10 years, now my 10 year old daughter is learning and I'm trying to help. She has a good swing and hits full shots well. She takes part in 2 or 3 JR golf programs a year. Like most golfers, the short game is the biggest problem. I try and work with her around the practice green, but we wind up either getting frustrated, or just goofing off most of the time. I guess what I'm asking is, is there a theory behind it like there is a theory behind poker? What am I trying to do when I am chipping, or putting? (Technique wise, I know what my main goal is) Are there some good drills to groove my chipping stroke so I know I have the technique down? Any book recommendations on short game, or working with kids on understanding the game and the swing? I guess I had a few more questions than I originally thought. I'm still in the OMG a golf forum right here on 2+2 phase. Thanks, Ben |
