Thirteen simple, picture-led drills that build a repeatable short game around the shots that decide your score — chipping, pitching and bunker play.
or buy nowA focused, no-fluff drill book covering the three scoring areas of the short game: chipping, pitching and bunker shots. Every drill is explained in plain language and shown with step-by-step photographs, so you can see exactly what good technique looks like and copy it.
Rather than overwhelming you, it gives you a clear plan: read it through once, pick one drill you like from each of the three sections, and practise each consistently for at least 30 days to build the habit. It is built around doing, not just reading.
Work through these drills consistently and your short game stops being a guessing game. You'll chip with quieter hands and a firmer wrist, pitch to predictable distances, and step into a bunker expecting to get out. Because these are the shots you face most often around the green, even small gains here turn into real strokes saved on the card.
Most short-game problems come down to too many moving parts. The author's whole approach is the opposite: keep it simple. Quieter arms, firmer wrists, an intact triangle and a swing that always follows through further than it goes back. These few ideas show up again and again across the chipping, pitching and bunker sections, reinforced from different angles so they actually sink in.
What makes the book work is that it is built for action, not theory. The introduction is blunt about it — reading the drills and then doing nothing will change nothing. So instead of dumping thirteen drills on you at once, it asks you to pick one chipping, one pitching and one bunker drill, and practise each for at least 30 days to turn it into a habit in all three areas at the same time.
The drills themselves are genuinely simple and need almost no special equipment — a second club for the extension and triangle drills, objects placed at 10-yard intervals for distance control, even an umbrella or a length of wood as an alignment guide. Each one is illustrated with clear photographs of the setup and the motion, so you are never guessing what 'straight back and straight through' or 'keep the triangle intact' actually looks like.
Underpinning it all is one repeated truth: in chipping and pitching your follow-through should always be longer than your backswing, so the club accelerates through impact. Get that — plus firm wrists and good aim at an intermediate target — and the consistency you've been chasing around the greens finally has somewhere to live.
Pick one drill from each section, give it 30 days, and start getting up and down more often.
