The biggest difference between a consistent golfer and an average golfer is Course Management. You need to play to your strengths, if you cannot reach the green in two shots, then do not try to. Make sure you lay up into a position where you can attack the flag with your approach shot and have a 10 – 15 foot Putt for Par.
The same principle applies for the 'Short' Par 4’s. If the hole is 270 – 290 metres long, first think about the hole before you pull the driver out of your bag. There’s no harm in hitting an iron off the tee box and putting yourself into a position where you have a favourable distance to the green.
Course Management plays a massive role for the players on Professional Tours, therefore why should it be any different for you? It's well worth your time and effort to apply this on the course, so make a point of coming to the club, or speak to us today.
