Q: Dear Chef, I almost never get enough shots within 100 yards. How to improve distance control ability? —Kyle M., Phoenix
For shots within 100 yards, technique is even more critical because you need to produce a consistent trajectory to control distance.
A great drill I use with some of my higher level players is to catch three balls and hit them from different yardages. Start at 20 yards and move back 5 yards until you reach 50 yards.
