About this episode
Whether you realize it or not, most trouble is short of the green. While some holes might have a bunker or water behind the green, most of the trouble is short.
Why?
Because greenskeepers know that most golfers end up short and thus put the trouble accordingly.
If you're between clubs, pick the longer one in general (unless there is trouble long). Try not to pull the club that you must hit perfectly to reach the green.
After learning more course management inside the DECADE program, the numbers show that missing long is almost always better than short. This should cause more looks for birdies so you can score consistently better.
