How To Hit Your Approach Shots Closer, TaylorMade Golf Ball Review & Your Questions For Experts

Happy Monday,

Scheffler cruised home, Aberg impressed with a solo 2nd place in his first Masters and we have to applaud Jacob’s analysis from last week’s newsletter.

A good friend of Golf Insider, Hugo Dobson, was back caddying for Tyrell Hatton last week, we’ll do our best to grab Hugo for a chat in the coming weeks to find out what it is like to caddy at The Masters, be in the mix and play R3 with Tiger Woods.

This week we have a new format to share. We always appreciate your feedback as we try to find new ways to help you get better at golf.

Below we have a ‘cheat sheet’ or ‘one-pager’ on Approach Play – Distance Control.

These are designed to be information-dense, but quick to consume and refer to when needed. Let us know if you would like more of these for different topics – you can leave feedback at the bottom of this newsletter.

We also have a review on the TaylorMade Distance Plus Golf Balls and we’d love your questions in this week’s poll.

Happy reading.

Questions for Experts

PING have kindly invited us to their European research HQ tomorrow! We have a chance to see how they test and design equipment and we have interviews with PING’s head of performance research Jono Shepherd and Loughborough PhD researcher, Lindsey Legg researching the biomechanics of a female golfer and golfer-equipment interaction.

Please leave your questions below and we’ll ask as many as we can.
