Hope that everyone has a good winter in the northeast and are eager to improve their golf games. Over the winter I have the pleasure to go to the Honda Classic and the Masters on my way home. And I hope most of you had a chance to watch on television, did you notice what happens when the conditions get tough??

The tour players do not hit every green in those events, so they must have a very good short game to combat that. Ever notice how many greens you hit on a pretty day on the golf course on average most golfers hit between 5 to 10 greens. Or do you ever tell yourself that you can not it a particular shot around the green when playing?

If your answer to this is yes, please take the time to improve your putting especially 5 foot putts, learn how to hit bunker shots, learn how to chip and pitch the golf ball. On that special day when you shoot your best round, you may realize how many putts you had and how close you hit your bunker, chip and pitch shots.

You should realize how enjoyable the game of golf is and if you practice that aspect of the golf enough you should see you’re handicap go down. If nothing else it will help you when your not hitting the golf ball all that great, it keeps a round of golf going. If you need help with this or any other part of your game please call me at (609) 618~2467 or drop me a note at PGAK@PGA.COM. Happy Golfing in 2008.
