Day 16....

Day 16....

Let's work on our short game, shall we?  Before I jump into today's post, let me warn you right now that its pretty golf heavy, but really its about life.


So my short game is need of help, golf short game that it.  Wedges aren't my stronghold and I will be taking my cousin up on his suggestions as he is now a PGA teaching professional.  While my long game is just fine, (ask my brother about Top Golf today) the short game is where it is won and lost on the course.  From about 90 yards and in is the where the issues are popping up.  I have a drill that I'm working on that keeps my lower body more still and rely on the pendulum motion of my arms and shoulders.  On follow thru, point the club in the line of your target.  This simple change and reminder has made me a little more confident with the short clubs.

Okay, now onto the short game of life.  In this day of social media posts, pics, pins, and shares, we lose some true identity of who we really are.  We want people to feel involved with our life, but we often fail to actually connect on the human level.  The simple act of posting a status update or sending a tweet, it fulfills an obligation to letting the world what we did or what's for dinner.  I feel that we've lost the art of the short game, you know the face to face connection that started friendships, relationships, ect.  I'm making an effort to talk to more people in real life, actually being social, and learning something new about the people in my life.  Let's all work on our short game a little, shall we?  Let's see what it does....
