And as a general rule of thumb, longer shots such as drives and low irons are played nearer the front foot. Whereas the shorter clubs, such as wedges and high irons, are played nearer the back foot.

The most important part of the short game is your putting. A majority of the strokes you take during a round of golf are taken with the putter in your hands. Being able to make those 3-10 footers more often will dramatically lower your scores. This is why you should continue to work on your putting even during the off season.
