Golf is hard. Really hard. In fact, it’s hard to imagine another pastime in which you play poorly for 2 hours, have an amazing shot, chip or putt, or maybe even a good hole and kid yourself into thinking you actually had fun. And then want to do it again! Well, at least it was nice outside. At least I didn’t lose any balls today. At least I won a few holes. But that’s how golf is; one shot can change it all. Now, what if that one shot became a little more common?
Could you shave 4, 5, 6 maybe even 10 or more strokes off your golf game?
I know a lot of people would say no, and if I promised you I could help you do just that, you’d be pretty skeptical. After all, you’ve probably been playing the game long enough to know how tough that might be. In fact, aside from making range and practice green time a part-time job, there’s no way you could improve like that, right?
Not so fast. The reason your scorecard continues to suffer may not even be your fault in the first place. You've been given the wrong information for years! How about an example.
Maybe you have a lot of fear hitting out of greenside bunkers, a shot you never practice before a round. After all, who has time to practice a shot they’re no good at hitting? So you do what most amateur golfers do, and you try to pick that ball clean out of the sand. 9 times out of 10, how did that work out for you? I can imagine that ball is likely still in the bunker with you, or clear on the other side of the green. At least you won’t have to go to your bag and change clubs.
