Q: Dear Chef, I’m short on nearly every shot within 100 yards. How can I improve my distance control? —Kyle M., Phoenix
Technique is even more critical on shots inside 100 yards since you need to generate a consistent trajectory to control distances.
A good drill I use with some of my high-level players is to take three balls and hit from a variety of yardages. Start at 20 yards, then move back five yards until you get to 50. Simply chart your distance control and see how far the ball is carrying from each location.
