I have fallen into this major dilemma of hitting great tee shots (12 of 14 fairways today with average drive of 242) and then totally blowing my 2nd shot and/or missing the green short. It makes me forever scrambling for Par. The reason for falling short is not the wrong club, it's in my head. So.... today I decided to take one extra club on every approach shot and be willing to miss long. The result was more GIRs and a 37 on a Par 36. What's in my head is thinking I will go long with the right club so I throttle back. Seems I did the same thing with one extra club, but also got 10-12 extra yards and hit more greens. Ya gotta love this game of golf.
