Your Best Golf May Still Be Inside 100 Yards

We may not hit it as far as we once did. But we can still become better wedge players, better chippers, and better putters.

Golf is deceptively simple and endlessly complicated; it satisfies the soul and frustrates the intellect. It is at the same time rewarding and maddening - and it is without a doubt the greatest game mankind has ever invented.
- Arnold Palmer

SHORT GAME

Wedges, pitching, chipping, bunker play and distance control.

PUTTING

Setup, stroke, green reading, speed control and practice.

TRAINING AIDS

Testing short-game and putting aids to determine what's useful—and what's just another golf gadget.

GOLF FITNESS

Mobility, balance, flexibility and strength for maintaining your golf game as you age.

Tested on a Senior Golfer

Does This Thing Actually Help?

Golf is overflowing with training aids. Some provide useful feedback. Some solve very specific problems. Others end up collecting dust in the garage.

I’d test them from the perspective of an ordinary senior recreational golfer.

The Gurus: Different Roads to Better Golf

Golf instruction can be confusing.

One instructor says square stance. Another says open.

One teaches straight-back-and-through putting. Another teaches an arc.

One wants less wrist action. Another wants the clubhead to release.

Who’s right?

Practice at Home

You Don’t Need a Golf Course to Get Better

Indoor Putting Practice

Build an effective 10-foot practice area at home.

Indoor Short Game

Foam balls, nets, mats, strike boards and drills.

Winter Golf Practice

How to actually improve during the offseason instead of starting over every spring.

Taking Your Training Aids to the Golf Dome

Which putting and short-game aids work on artificial turf?

The Senior Golfer section

Keep Your Body in the Game

You don’t need the flexibility you had at 30. But maintaining mobility, balance and strength can make practicing and playing golf considerably easier.

I'm Still Trying to Get Better, Too

I’ve played golf most of my life. Like a lot of golfers, I don’t hit the ball quite as far as I once did. But I don’t believe that means my scores have to get worse.

I’m still learning. I’m still experimenting. And I’m particularly interested in one question: How good can I become from 100 yards and in?

That’s what this site is about.
