Course management..

[Big85]

We all use some sort of course management whilst out playing golf. Where we want the ball to land, yardages etc but just how much more do you take into account when you play golf?

Are you that golfer that just walks up to a ball looks at the yardage pulls the club out the bag that you can hit the said yardage and bobs your uncle??

In any case I follow the advice of Tommy Armour…obviously requires a bit more than just: get yardage; choose club; hit ball.

Play the shot you’ve got the greatest chance of playing well, and
Play the shot that makes the next shot easy.

Most amateurs don't take course management serious enough. They just see the yardage and away they go. Course management begins on the tee of every hole, whether you play the same course 7 days a week. It could be different everyday. Weather,course conditions, how your swinging it that day. Its not just about yardage.
