Tournament golf

Yesterday I played my second tournament of the year. Although I hit 14 greens in regulation, I ended with (my own score) a 77. Now while the immediate thought is...GOSH...practice your short game, I did not hit the spots I needed so I left myself with impossible up and downs. I tried to hit perfect golf shots.

In tournament golf (or playing for a score), it is most important to realize that the objective is to get the ball into the hole inthe fewest humber of shots as possible. This means figuring out a swing which works for the day and finding the easiest BAILOUT areas for simple up and downs. Put these combos together and you will be well prepared for your tournament!
