Cheers man, it's been a bit of a struggle this year, playing well then having 2 or 3 horror holes and scraping buffer of 0.1. Was good to finally put it together. Got lucky at times, holed out from a bunker and nailed a few long putts. Feel like it was just rewards though! Hopefully get to the target of 14 by end of the season.

Hopefully get to the target of 14 by end of the season. It happens. There is the odd medal round when a lot of putts go in and sometimes it coincides with minimal shots chucked back. Dobbing in from a bunker is an extra bonus. The important thing is to take advantage and finish off the score. You got the cut. There's nothing more soul destroying than draining a few putts but chucking them back elsewhere. Holing putts and getting a feeling that putts are there to be holed is a product of getting the distance control right. Getting the pace of the greens early on and not having to hunt for the pace. Line of putt is always secondary to distance control. If only it could be bottled and stored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victorian Posted August 20, 2019 Author Share Posted August 20, 2019 Talking of targets (I don't normally set them), I've got at least 4 medals to play in the rest of the season but maybe 1 of 2 more. Sitting on 7.3 which is where I started (only thanks to a blitzer of a back 9). So that's 0.9 to get to 6. Assuming I go up 0.1 once, that's 1.0 @ 0.2 a shot. 5 under for one or more rounds. That's a 71 to do it all in a oner (not on at this time of year for me) of maybe 74 and 73 (still a tall order). Maybe a more realistic target is just to get within striking distance for the final comp or for the start of next season. I just want to get there before the transition over to the new system. But it's ****ing hard. 🤨 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've sacrificed the driver over the last two season (it's lucky to get more than 2 outings a round) for finding fairways and worked on getting down in two from 30/40 yards often. Scoring has improved a lot and getting lots more birdie conversions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the exact opposite on the driver. I think the driver is about the easiest shot in golf to get right and consistent. I don't have distance in my armoury, don't practice at all and can have a shaky pitching / chipping game at times. I used to be solid on iron play but that's not quite as good as it was. Nothing is really good but nothing is bad. Don't make enough birdies and have to rely on making lots of pars and minimising **** ups to score. My 18 double bogeys this medal season have cost me a huge bite out of my handicap because my other scoring has been good. But that's golf for you.

Yeah, off 7 shows you can play to a good standard. It's marginal gains you are looking for though. All scratch and cat1 players will have the double bogey (or worse) moments. It happens.

Golfers have a variety of margins across a spectrum. Some very low players have next to no margin and others are distance monsters who churn out birdies but have sporadic shite as well. Much more margin. The same things apply along the scale of handicap levels. Vert low players tend not to have an obvious weak aspect in their game. They're normally very good in every department, despite what they might believe themselves. Anyone outside of Cat1 normally has a weakness somewhere, albeit minor through to profoundly destructive.

Irufushi Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Biggest tip for the majority of golfers would be use a PW around the greens , helped me a lot last few years.

Victorian Posted August 22, 2019 Author Share Posted August 22, 2019 That's a good shout tbf. I used to bump and run a 7-iron from around the green from a variety of distance and lies. Always the 7. Somewhere along the road I lost the feel for it and automatically whip out the 56 degree for most shots. I think it stems from greenside chipping out of lies when the ball is sitting down in wiry greenside rough. I always feel the need to loft it out with a steep approach. Hands a bit forward, ball off the back foot. Always conscious of the club head contacting the grass on the backswing. Ideally you need to be as relaxed as possible on the delicate chipping but if you're at all tense, the club can feel like a lead weight and your legs can feel dead.

Shot Scope had a stat a wee while ago with the correlation between handicap level and club used to chip around the greens. Needless to say, most high handicappers are chipping with a SW. I tend to go with a 9 iron. Nice balance of loft and consistency for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
