Does Par Help or Hurt Your Course Management?

About this episode

Lou talks a lot about expectations on the course. But golf has a built-in system of expectations: when you get to a new hole, the first two bits of information you normally want are yardage and par. That par number sets some expectation of how the hole should be played. In this episode, Mark, Lou, and Greg talk about whether the concept of par helps or hurts your approach to playing a hole. They discuss strategies for focusing on what you can control right now, so that you are in the best position to shoot your best score, and maybe even make a few more pars.
