I played yesterday at a golf course close to me, a shorter course, and shot a 41 for 9 (I only had time for nine)! It was in preparation for a high school tournament I have there tomorrow. Through 2 holes I was +3 , I had a 3 putt on one and lost my tee shot to the dreaded snap hook on two. I step up with zero hopes for the next shot and sure enough hit it 20 yards left, pin high though. My dad told me at this point, no more negatives until something positive happened. That's when I hit a beautiful flop shot that went in for birdie from about 35 yards away. Best hole of the day and led me to play better throughout the day.

I personally, hit the driving range on practice days when I don't play for about an hour, and the putt for close to an hour if I can. I've really seen significant growth in my putting recently by changing to y old putter which suits me better, oddly enough. But I'd say it should be close to 50/50 at least for me because I need constant reassurance of my strengths and weaknesses in these areas.
