Here’s some takeaways you can apply to your home net practice.

Go long on short
Floyd emphasises chipping and pitching as crucial for lowering scores and says spending more time on these skills will pay off.
Perfection is the enemy…
Rather than chasing perfection, Floyd stresses consistency. Hitting good, solid shots more often leads to better scores than the occasional hero shot.
Practice with purpose
Focus your net practice on specific areas of your game that need improvement and set realistic goals for each session to track your progress.
