That's what I've been missing... I haven't swung a club in a week and went to play 9 this evening. Not just any 9 but the treacherous front 9 at my regular course, Triggs. Apparently my natural ballflight came back after my muscles relaxed for a week... and it was a good thing.
This game is so simple when I just start the ball up the left side and belt it. It always drifts back 4 to 5 yds. and is sitting 265-275 about 2 yds. right of dead center... waiting for the high cut approach to be stuck.
Anyway I shot a 39 with crap putting and made 6 pars. So much for distance loss as well. I hit the #1 cap 445 with a cut drive dead center and a high cut 8iron. Not sure how far I hit a cut 8iron but it's not 190.
Anyone see Hunter Mahan's approach on 18 in regulation? I was inspired by that high cut 9iron. I said to myself "I've got that shot and I need to start using it again".
