Approach Shots & Par-3 Management (120 Yards and In)

The Putting Chateau has two dedicated stations—one for lag putting and one for precision stroke technique.

  • At the outdoor lag-putting station, the 24-foot, tour-speed carpet develops real speed control and distance feel so you can eliminate 3-putts.
  • In the indoor putting studio, SAM PuttLab and the research Marius Filmalter and I conducted reveal the micro-patterns behind face rotation, aim, path, posture, and consistency. We teach a core-driven short-putt motion that produces a repeatable, stable stroke.

Approach Shots & Par-3 Management (120 Yards and In)

We teach approach shots using precise Mevo+ data to measure the club-head parameters that matter inside 125 yards: path, angle of attack, speed, spin, and launch behavior. With Swing Profile automated video, we refine your wedge technique and create a dependable distance-control system.

For par-3 management, we use virtual PGA Tour par-3 holes to teach smarter target selection, better decision-making, and scoring strategy without relying on video. You’ll learn when to attack, when to play safe, and how to avoid the mistakes that cost strokes on tough par-3s.

Why the Short Game Matters Most

In our golf coaching sessions with putting expert Marius Filmalter and neuroscientist Ernst Pöppel, we’ve discovered that within 90 yards, the brain engages a precise, focused system. This insight is invaluable for our golf lessons, making the short game one of the easiest areas for golfers of all levels—including juniors—to enhance their skills quickly and boost their confidence. Additionally, utilizing tools like the SAM Puttlab during private lessons in Washington DC can further refine your putting technique.

Testimonials

"Your technology is easy to follow. You translated the numbers to explain my putting technique—especially the bad habits—through your exceptional golf coaching." - Bernard Shaw, CNN Anchor Emeritus


"As a 15-year-old competitive junior golfer, I found that Pierre's private lessons were exactly what I needed. He uses the state-of-the-art SAM Puttlab technology, which is also employed on the PGA Tour, to analyze my putting stroke. His insights have helped my putting tremendously, and I believe he can assist golfers of all levels in Washington DC." - Otto Voettiner IV

"I found the data that was created, along with your instructions, to be very helpful in my golf coaching journey. I immediately went to Congressional CC and implemented your instructions for better putting technique using the SAM Puttlab." - Gregory Dole


"Jeremiah continues to excel with amazing putts and birdies in the last two tournaments. Yesterday, during our Charity Scramble in Washington DC, he hit a 6 iron that spun back down the hill to 10 ft and sunk the birdie putt on his own ball, showcasing the skills he developed through our private lessons." - Jerry Smith

Over the course of 5 golf lessons with Pierre, I transformed my putting technique from a cut stroke that often caused the yips to a much more technically sound stroke. This improvement allowed me to pick up at least 3 shots per round on the greens. Pierre offers an incredible wealth of knowledge about putting and explains why certain inefficiencies may exist in your stroke. Utilizing the SAM Puttlab, you can see exactly what your stroke looks like from all angles, highlighting areas that need improvement. The drills and practice routines he prescribes are easy to follow and truly will fix your putting for good. It was a fantastic experience, and I highly recommend seeking out Pierre for private lessons if you're looking to shave some shots off your game in Washington DC.
