While I was watching the champions tour yesterday/ (tape delay from round 1)
i kept watching how many different type of shots Freddy hit into the greens. He would hit little knock down shots, half wedges, pitch and runs, etc. they guy is so fun to watch swing the golf club. its Amazing.
So i started thinking about my own game and why i hit so many full shots into greens. If would just take a 9 iron from 100 yards and just punch it up into t middle of the green instead of grabbing a wedge and trying to hit it at the pin and spin it back into the hole, (Ya like thats going to happen:arrogant id be sooo much better off.
I also have a bad back, as im sure many of us do and I think the reason he hits a lot of those shots it to keep from having to take a full swing, plus HE CAN.
I need to take some of the ego out of my game and I think I can score much better.
Today when I go out, Im going to really try to just hit more greens with half shots, punch shots etc and just aim at the center of the green. How many of us if we had to, could hit a little punch 8 iron 100 yards right at the red flag on the range? no problem but trying to hit it with a full on SW or PW and its off the green or 10 yards right or left. I know I do.
So im going to take a lesson from Freddy and save my back and try to hit more greens.
PS: I MADE IT. :blob:
