Risk Assessment and Smarter Golf
“Many amateurs overestimate their skill, underestimate the effect of hazards, and choose highly risky shots that lead to too many ‘awful shots’ and dropped shots on the scorecard. Playing smarter golf, without any swing changes, can lead to lower scores immediately.” (Mark Broadie Every Shot Counts)
Are you accurately assessing your current TALENT to RISK element of your game? Let’s be smart (and realistic) and watch the scores drop. “Boring” golf is fun when you beat your buddies!
