Up North, it’s getting wet already. Not much fun to play in a liquid atmosphere with squishy lies. Keep playing, though, and use the opportunity to improve.<\/p>\n
Shun the regulation course and find an executive layout. Make sure you go out as a single, because you are going to be hitting a lot of mulligans. What you are going to do is par every hole before you move on to the next one. <\/p>\n
First off, this method is for short game practice. You don\u2019t get do-overs for tee shots and approach shots. Practice those on the range. So, after you have gotten the ball within 100 yards of the hole, drop a ball and hit it again if (a) your pitch doesn\u2019t land and stop on the green, or (b) your chip doesn\u2019t end up within 3 feet of the hole, (c) your bunker shot doesn\u2019t get out, (d) your approach putt doesn\u2019t finish within 2 feet of the hole, of (e) your second putt doesn\u2019t go in. If you make all those corrections, you should end up scoring a par on every hole. <\/p>\n
What you accomplished: You learned how to get a par and how to hit the shots you need to hit in order to do it. Those will be the short shots and putts. Now when you take you game to the big courses starting in March, you will have the skill and confidence it takes to play well around the greens and shoot the scores you deserve. <\/p>\n
