10 Reasons to buy the latest issue of TG

Last updated:

Wouldn’t it be nice if you could get down in two just a few more times in a round and stop throwing away needless shots?
No more fat or thin chips, no more leaving it in the sand. No more silly, infuriating three putts. We’re not expecting you to hone a short game like a Tour pro. But even if you get up and down four times in a round instead of one, that will save you three shots. Is there a quicker way to knock three shots off your round? 

That’s why we’ve pulled together this month’s Summer Scoring Special; it’s packing with great advice from our Top 50 team of teachers to help you get down in two.
