Golf instruction: Dialing in pitch shot yardages with backswing cues

Many professional golfers say that accuracy from 100 yards and in is the biggest reason amateurs can't lower their scores.

This week, Golfweek’s fitness guru and long driver Averee Dovsek breaks down the backswing into four separate positions. Each move and position will signify a carry yardage that golfers can think about when trying to pitch with more accuracy.

Great golfers such as Lydia Ko, Jordan Spieth and Steve Stricker have practiced this method.

Every golfer's yardage will be different and this should be practiced on the range before taking it to the course.
