Pre Shot Routine Process

In Tactical , posted by Virginia on

Run a checklist before you make your decision:

  1. What are the possibilities that the lie and the shot give me.
  2. The lie doesn’t so much determine what shot you can play as it does what shots you can’t play.
  3. Can I hit it high or low.
  4. Do I have to carry some kind of trouble in front of me, or some kind of tier on the green.

Once you have an idea of options, pick the one that you think is the best choice for the situation, and feel comfortable with the choice you make.

Just because a situation dictates some kind of high flop shot, if you need to make a bogey to win your hole and you’re more comfortable hitting a lower-running chip you should be picking the shot that makes you comfortable.

Put the decision making process behind you, stop second guessing and feel confident about the shot you’re going to hit.
