CREATESPACE Symmetrical Golf: A Short Game Method for Consistent Scoring

Unlock a fresh lens on the short game

Symmetrical Golf reimagines how players approach the surface-level shots that often decide a round. Written by PGA Master Professional Jerry Tucker, the book blends anecdotes from major championships with practical, step-by-step guidance that centers on symmetry and evenness as the scaffolding for better scoring.

From greenside chips to distance wedges, the guide outlines a complete toolkit: putting, chipping, pitching, bunker play, and precise distance control. Tucker pairs clear explanations with a structured practice approach designed to translate feel into repeatable results on both range and course.

Key concepts you can explore

• Symmetry as a guiding principle to simplify the short game and align with intended paths.
• Structured feel: a system that links distance control with repeatable contact and rhythm.
• Putting clarity: understanding why a putt misses and how to adjust line, speed, and cadence.
• Wedge mastery across 30–90 yards with practical drills for consistent distance and trajectory.

The book shares testing procedures and practice routines to quantify progress, while maintaining a conversational tone that breaks down complex ideas like bounce, swing length, and angle of approach into approachable steps.

Real-world use cases and benefits

• A player seeking steadier 6–8 foot putts may experience more consistent speed and line with a structured framework for distance control.
• A golfer who struggles with greenside chips can learn how a high, soft pitch can land softly and release more predictably.
• A round demanding confident bunker play can become easier with a clear plan for various sand conditions and shot shapes.

Note: the benefits described are possibilities based on symmetry and structured drills; individual results depend on prior technique and time invested in practice.
