Short GameAdvanced
Against the Collar Escape
10-20 min Solo Hybrid or Putter, Wedge, Golf Balls
Setup
Place a ball nestled into the collar with fringe grabbing the back. Choose a nearby tight pin.
Drill Instructions
Option 1: putt with a hybrid toe-down to pop it through. Option 2: use a wedge with heel up to nip the ball, minimizing grass grab. Practice both and decide which yields tighter proximity for the lie.
Goal
6/10 inside 4 feet with at least one of the methods.
Make It Easier
Choose a flatter collar and more green.
Coach Tip
When in doubt, hybrid is safer; wedge is for when you must carry a few feet.
Make It Harder
Add a small carry to a downhill pin with 3-foot circle.
Avoid
Trying to flop from a collar grab—too risky.
