Daily Post: Studying The Course Design
Something a little different, but equally powerful for better golf in today’s post…
The golf course is not your enemy.. but its creator certainly is. The course itself is essentially a series of puzzles, created by the architect, for you to solve. So what are those puzzles? What traps have been set? And how might you overcome them?
When you become fascinated by course design, you see the game in a much more rounded and deeper context.
Instead of hating that deep bunker in front of the sixth green, you start to understand its positioning, its depth, and that respect translates into smarter play.
But moreover, because you are now trying to outwit the designer, golf becomes a game again, something to absorb your mind, get you thinking appropriately about playing the game and, more importantly, stopping interference from your mind taking you back to swing mechanics or the past/present of a round!
One way you can view a course differently is to walk/look at it from back to front, so either walk the course from the 18th Green all the way back to the 1st tee (or view this way online or in a yardage book)
This will give you a different perspective as to how the course looks, plays and where you could potentially strategise your game differently to help you score better. You might just notice those landing areas are a little wider than they look from the tee box!
