Most golfers obsess over their driver... but the real score killer is the shot from 50 yards.
From this distance, every yard matters. A shot that's too high can come up short. Too much rollout and you'll miss the green completely.
A few simple adjustments can make these shots much more consistent:
Narrow your stance for better balance.
Play the ball slightly back of center.
Let your chest, arms, and club move together.
Keep the swing smooth with minimal wrist action.
Practice your 40–60 yard distances until they become automatic.
Distance control beats power every time.
Spend more time sharpening your wedge game, and you'll start saving strokes where it matters most.
