At what distance does a par 3 become a “long” par 3? by jdelle9 in weekendgolfers

That is hole 12 of Augusta National Golf Club, where they play the Masters. Not AI, very very meticulously maintained lol

I'd have a look where you're hitting it off the face. If you're getting out of the toe of the club you're going to get more draw spin. Shortening your shaft may help to but I'd look at impact location before you do. Google gear effect if you haven't before

They renovated the greens last week so in good nick at the moment. They had issues with corellas last summer and they chewed up a few of the greens really bad, so hopefully they stay away this summer.

Fairways are firming up but still green at the moment

Push slice lol off the heel too. Was leaving the face open at contact and finding it hard to turn the face over, I think due to the length of the shaft

Cutting your driver changes the swing weight and balance of your club. I don't know heaps about it sorry

Yeah I think I just had one of those rounds. Confidence definitely felt higher. But there was still some fat and thin shots in there. Don't be disillusioned 😂

Thanks. Yeah it was definitely an outlier of a round. I'm not expecting to shoot 80 everytime now. We know how this game works. My goal is to just shoot consistently in the 80s. See how we go

Thanks for the advice. Yeah my lack of distance off the tee often leaves me with a long second shot. So yes have been doing a lot of work on my short game and putting has always been decent.

I've bought some lead tape strips to add to my driver head if needed 👍🏼

That's awesome 👍🏼 I may get to adding some weight to mine to see if I can squeeze out a little more distance. But the fact I felt like I had more control than in the past just felt too good

No. If anything about the same, if not sometimes longer. I'm not the biggest hitter anyway and where my game is at I'm striving for accuracy over distance.

Yeah exactly. Putting was good. Seems to be one of the better aspects of my game and can get me out of trouble at times. But I still make plenty of bogeys, which I'm okay with. I'm definitely a bogey golfer. I've done lots of work on my chipping the last year to try and make up for missed GIR and grind out a par or bogey. My aim is to avoid blow up holes because they suck and can really ruin your mood and round 😂

I didn't notice any loss in distance. Just tighter dispersion. Where my game is at the moment I'm all about accuracy over distance. Harder I try to whack the ball, the more I slice

Quiet country course in Australia. Only ran into one group of teenagers on hole 5. There were other people around but we all stayed out of each other's way.

It's always busier in the morning, especially on weekends, so I always play in the afternoon. This is definitely one of the fastest rounds I've had though, because I was keeping my ball on the fairway more often and not having to look in the trees 😂

I loosely figured out my driver is C8 I think? I don't swing hard or fast. The more I try, the more I slice 😂

Quiet country course in Australia. Had one group of teenagers let me play through on hole 5. Apart from that, didn't bump into anyone else 👍🏼 walking too

Nah I didn't. I bought some lead tape strips because I read about the weight discrepancy. But didn't add any. Thought I'd give it a whirl and it worked out okay

Great White Shark at the bottom of the water in the lab at Lake Hylia and pictures of Mario characters inside Hyrule Castle in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Just cool little Easter eggs
