Well, most golfers are trying their hardest just to get to your level. But that's little consolation if you're a low handicapper and you're the one trying to get better!
I think you'll find in going from a 2 to a scratch might take you as much time as it took to go from a 20 down to a 12. But that's not to say that it can't be done, because it can. If you have a focused attack, and the time to put into it, you might find yourself being surprised at how much better you can get, even at your handicap.
In this level, you'll learn some strategies and techniques behind great practice, even if you have limited time. You'll learn about some of the different grass conditions and how to handle them, and we're going to learn some of those tricky shots that you're going to need to know how to play as you get into some bigger competitions.
Now most people at this handicap level have a short game that's pretty darn good. But you know what? Pretty darn good at this handicap level is not going to get it. To be a truly expert player in this game, your short game needs to be at least good, and that's minimum requirements. What we need it to be is excellent. And that's where putting that time and effort into working on the right things is going to help you.
Let's take a moment for a close look at the statistics behind putting and it will show you how important the short game is to the very expert player. On the PGA Tour, studies have shown that the Tour player is going to make in the mid to high 90's of their percentage of 3 foot putts. That means that they are rarely missing from 3 feet. Move that same proficient golfer though out to 6 feet and the percentage goes down to 50 percent, so they're only making half of their 6 footers! Move them out 3 feet again and it gets cut in half again, down to about 25%.
Now when you watch the golfers on TV you would swear that they're making more putts than this, but you have to remember, when you're watching golf on TV, you're watching the 5 or 6 players out of 155 that are making a lot of putts that week. That's why they're on television! So it tends to give us a little bit of a skewed perspective on how good the PGA Tour players are in putting.
To put those statistics to work, let's take 2 golfers and let's make them about college level, so they're going to average about 9 greens per round. Let's say that golfer A has an excellent short game. He's going to chip the ball about 3 feet from the hole on average. Golfer B has an okay short game. He's going to chip it 6 feet from the hole on average. And let's make them hit the ball identically the same, so they're both going to hit 9 greens per round. Well, Golfer A after 18 holes, has no bogies, because he's going to make in the high 90 percentile of his 3 foot putts. Golfer B, who chips it to 6 feet, is going to make 4 or 5 bogies per round. Well, all of a sudden, after one round, Golfer A has Golfer B by 4 to 5 shots. After a 72 hole tournament, you're looking at 16 to 20 shots! This is just an absolute blowout. And they've hit the ball exactly the same.
I guarantee you when Golfer B finishes that tournament, he's going to wonder how Golfer A beat him so badly. So the bottom line here is that the short game at this handicap level is absolutely huge.
After viewing this level, you'll have all the tools you'll need to get the very most out of your scoring game... I guarantee it! As always, if you're not thrilled with this level, then send it back for a full refund. Don't miss this chance to take your game to the next level!
