In the new issue of Golf Monthly, we team up with Top 50 Coach Peter Finch to give advice on the eight shots that golfers struggle with the most. We also hear from tour stars Min Woo Lee and Laurie Canter, review all the month’s new gear releases and look at the history of handicapping to see how the current system matches up.
