More greens in regulation! It's the single best predictor of score.
I generally like what you post but this one...unless it is one of those "tongue in cheek ones" (tone is hard online)....lol Blugold, what you doing? You're killing me smalls.
That phrase always makes me laugh. It isn't like we are out there thinking, "I was going to hit this green, but I think this time I will intentionally miss it".
We would hit the green if we could. We are trying to.
On that line, I saw a "tip" from...oh, I don't know, Golf Monthly? One of those worthless magazines that keep coming and hitting my inbox no matter how many times I unsubscribe...saying one easy way to lower scores is to target having 6 "3s" on the scorecard every round. Wow, thanks for that brilliant insight golf writer! You mean to say if I score lower than I am currently capable of that my score will be lower? Huh. Good to know. I guess instead of trying to have 18 "5s" on my card I might do better if I mix in a 4? Or a 3?
Just poking light fun...there are certain bits of golf advice that are just the go-tos..."Hit more fairways" "hit more greens in regulation" "have more lower numbers on your card" that...say...well, not much.
