Tommy hit some bombs in the fairway and then proceeded to hit wedges long, fat, short, left, pretty much everywhere but the green. Put something in the middle of the fairway about 120-130 or whatever a full wedge is and hit it. |
Yeah, he had the same problem on BB too. I play with guys that do this all the time -- they outdrive me by 30 yds. but I have a more or less full shot to the green and they chunk their approach to somewhere in another county. My short game is the best part of my game and I consistently beat those guys because they waste a lot of strokes around and on the green.
Me, I just try to make sure I keep the long ones in play and stay out of trouble until I get in the scoring range. If I do that then all is good.
