In this winter instruction series elite coach and YouTube star Dan Whittaker is joined at his High Legh headquarters by Alex Perry – a 14-handicapper – and Dan Murphy – who plays off 3 – to run through a variety of drills that can be slightly adjusted depending on your ability. In this episode, Whittaker introduces the NCG boys to ‘Leap Frog’, a game from his short game tips repertoire that will improve your wedge play.
