Freddie -
This is not a swing question, but more a course management / scoring question. Here's my problem, I get out of the sand and chip or pitch in one, but I don't get the ball close enough to the hole to give myself scoring chances. I think my knowledge / technique about executing the shots is reasonably fine and my problem is more between the ears. So I'd like to know your thought processes - or the processes you recommend for others - when they are facing a generic shot within say 25 yards of the green shot (i.e., not special obstructions to over come, no issues with lie, etc.). How do you decide what type of shot to hit and the club to use? What do you think about before executing the shot? Do you have a specific goal / objective in mind before taking the shot and if so, what is it? Is the decision making process part of your pre-shot routine? When do you start thinking about those things?
