Hi all,
Ive posted on here recently that my immediate aim is to break 100 (currently lowest at 108, last round was 114) and get my 37 handicap down to something a bit more respectable (29?).
I played yesterday and even though i tried to be conservative I still had too many blow up holes and I can notice repeated mistakes coming in - ie there are two long par 5s that have a fence/road about 100 yards away from the tee. I've been taking a 3 wood off the tee to try and clear this and got over a handful of times - most of the time the fence plays with my head, i'll mis-hit it and end up messing around for 3/4 shots to get it over the fence...with still another 300 yards to go!
I'm thinking it'll be pretty boring, but a simple 7 or 8 iron off the tee to get it in the air and over the fence will give me a much better chance of getting round in a double bogey and eventually break 100.
Has anyone any other tips to try and get it done?
