Josh Mulcahy Update
As you are all aware we are monitoring theprogress of one of our very own juniors, JoshMulcahy.
This week he won the South Winchester Stablefordcompetition and had his handicap cut to 14!Great progress Josh.
Lesson 3
We identified that he may be under clubbing hisapproach shots into the green, which he willfrom now on pay more attention to his clubselection, making sure he chooses a club whichwill get him to the back of the green.
The stats recorded by Josh for his last 3 roundsshowed that his putting was letting him down. Inthe competition on Saturday he could have savedat least 4 shots on the putting green.
We took him on the putting green to see if wecould help improve his technique in any way.
1. As you can see below, we changed Josh's setup position to help him get his eyes over thetop of the ball, which helped him line his puttsup more accurately.
2. This also helped him to see the line hisputter was taking throughout the stroke, alsoshown below.
