That's why you got 14 clubs dawg. If you are a high handicapper and you are LAWNG enough . . . then invest your time in a few mission critical areas.
1. Course Management is of critical concern for you . . . go to Amazon and buy Playing Lessons by Jack Nicklaus. You can get it cheap. Pick smart targets. If you move the ball primarily in one direction . . . stop firing right at the pin. Play for your tendencies. Get the ball in play . . . PERIOD. No matter what stick it takes. Hit your 5 wood and your hybrids. Conservative strategy but cocky swing. Before you stick the tee in the ground on every hole ask yourself . . . "How can I make PAR on THIS HOLE TODAY??? and WHAT IS MY TARGET?"
2. Practice hitting your 3 wood 5 wood and Hybrid. Figure out how to get the ball in play.
3. Practice with a TARGET on EVERY SINGLE SHOT. If you just wack the ball and scrape you are eating golf doo doo. Discipline your mind and your swing . . . play to a freakin target on the range. And change it a bunch.
4. Hit the practice green . . . take ONE BALL . . . chip/pitch that ONE BALL and PUTT IT OUT. That's the way the game is played and that's the way you should practice.
Thanks for the replies. It's funny; I have a round tomorrow, and I was determined to think "smooth" the whole round. You know what they say about great minds, Ed. Also, thanks for the course management advice, Bucket. In my last round, 1 lapse in focus in my course management cost me my career best round on a course that has my number. So my plan is to try to focus on every shot, and to try to keep it in play. My 3-iron is going to get a lot of work.
