Our short game can be a crucial part to lowering our golf scores or making important saves if we aren't striking the ball so well with our full swings. Getting up and down from off the green or helping ensure we can get the ball in the hole with two putts or less takes skill and practice. I advise you make use of your local course practice green to help tune in your short game, but a lot of chipping or short pitching practice can be done in your own backyard and putting on a carpet can help built upon your putting abilities.
