Nicklaus
You have to find what works for you!
Jack Nicklaus said he practiced his long game more than his short game. He figured if he was driving the ball well, and hitting greens... he would do well. Not that he didn't practice his short game at all, he did practice it.
He came in to speak one time just after Bob Rotella had been talking about the importance of the short game... 60% of scoring within 100 yards etc.. He said something like... "I heard that, but I didn't do it that way."
I believe he figured out what worked for him pretty well.
Someone else may do better with more emphasis on their short game. Others may do better by just playing a lot of golf, with only a little practice. Figure out what works best for you.
