StrokerAce Posted March 22, 2018 Author Share Posted March 22, 2018 I guess if you follow the principles of strokes gained you want to be as far as possible for your second shot. How wide is the “safe†area compared to their miss dispersion? Lots of possible strategies but generally the shorter club that is in a pros hands the closer to the hole they will end up. Yeah... I get the theory behind it but sometimes the risk/reward is too high. I saw Keegan Bradley and Sharma and Russell Henley all blow up on that hole when their matches were relatively close (I don't recall if they were all square or not).

cnosil Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Yeah... I get the theory behind it but sometimes the risk/reward is too high. I saw Keegan Bradley and Sharma and Russell Henley all blow up on that hole when their matches were relatively close (I don't recall if they were all square or not). And that is the evaluation we make on every shot. What are the chances that you can execute the shot and what is the general result on your miss.
