In this video, Kyle Morris shares the most effective ways to develop your own stock shot. He also discusses some of the technical swing flaws that typically hold players back. Here you’ll learn how to practice your shot and groove it for the golf course.

Organizing Your Short Game

How many times have you missed a green, driven your cart up, and just grabbed a wedge and your putter without even looking at the shot? That kind of careless approach often results in wasted strokes around the greens. Kyle Morris explains how to evaluate short-game shotsthe lie, the landing spot, the swing and, finally, the club. You’ll see how an organized greenside game plan will help you save pars and break 80.

Getting Ready for a Round

Once you’ve worked on the mechanics of the long game and built some structure into your short game, it’s time to learn to prepare for a round. In this video, Kyle Morris shows you the various pieces and the proper order of an effective warm-up session. This is no time to work on technique or to try to patch your swing. Learn to tap into your feel and rhythm, boost your confidence, and get your body and mind into the proper state to perform like an athlete.
