From experience most club golfers (and professionals mind you) are too one dimensional in their short games. See how imagination in club choice and landing spot can allow you to get closer to the hole and save countless strokes during your round of golf.
Wedge play is all about distance control and accuracy NOT about how far you actually can hit a wedge. Here is a simple tip that has been used forever to help you gain control on those shots from 100 yards and in.

If you have trouble with your chips and pitch shots you may be moving your legs too much and dipping your knees and changing your body center. Practice this to become more stable and in the right place to get better strikes.
