What would help your game more?

I already submitted my vote for driving accuracy yesterday, and then prove it today.

Hit 4 out of 15 fairways! Not horrendously missed because I still hit 9 GIR, but it's much easier off the fairway than the first cut.

9 left because I've suddenly started randomly drawing the ball after saying on here a while ago that I couldn't draw the ball.
The only 2 I missed right were into some woods (the one hole where I want the draw), and a pond

Better concentration and more commitment to short game shots would easily knock 10 shots off my handicap.

Easier said than done though!

No question,it would be my putting.

Its always putting, you putt 40% of your shots.

Yes but you think for 100% of your shots

Agreed you do think for them all!

But in the clubhouse you dont think if i had hit that one closer you think if only i had holed that? i dont think i am wrong

Driving accuracy for me everything else is fairly solid but driving can be erratic. When I'm driving well I would shoot 5 or 6 under my handicap with ease.

Being able to play golf at my pace, un-interrupted.
Improving my putting by the smallest margin would be a huge benefit.
Improved Driving would be a smaller contributor overall.

Bunker play is my problem. Im scared to attack all our par threes because they are all surounded by bunkers and to be honest Im rubbish at getting out of them. Have asked for Golf lessons for christmas so maybe next year that problem will have gone away.

One thing that is not on your list is "playing more regularly". For all the lessons i've had and time at the range, it's only when i get a chance to play more than once a week that i see a vast improvement in my game.

There's so much more to golf than having a nice swing. Yeh, sure it helps, but getting it in the hole in the least number of shots is what it's all about and to do that you need to get a feel for it and a mindset and, i.m.o., that only comes through playing lots of golf.
