I've played some great courses so far.
I've had some great holes but never been able to put anything back to back.
So I'm trying to shoot par and I believe on a 18 hole course I could be 30 strokes back (on some of the harder courses). So what's wrong?
Driver - nothing spectacular but I'm starting to keep the ball on the course and sometimes I put it just 5-10 yards to the right of the fairway. Probably averaging around 180-220 yards.
Irons - My initial thought was that I was going to ignore this and get some good hybrids. That initially worked as most of my drives were short and I was always pulling my Adams 4 out of the bag but some of my drives on short par 4's have required a 9 or 8. I finally was fitted and found out that I needed a 1/2 inch longer shaft. I also came to the conclusion that I needed some consistency so I purchased a set of X20 Callaway's during their 20% sale.
PW/SW - for some reason I couldn't get under the ball but after two weeks of practice, I'm starting to hit it a little better. Long way to go here but my approach shots are horrible.
Putting - not so bad but I'm only consistent from about 5-8 yards out.
Next 30 days, I'm really going to focus on my irons and my short game. Probably going to rotate 80 balls to PW/SW and 80 balls to my irons 5-9. I'll hit maybe 5-10 balls with the driver to stay warm but I need to get my irons straight and my short game under control to get closer to the pin.
