what is up y'all hope y'all are having a great day out here at Nashville golf for
part two of the course management tips my thought process on the course shot
selections and why I chose certain clubs part one was the front nine finished at
even par this is part two gonna be the back nine number ten par three one
hundred and eighty yards
I was a little bit in between clubs right there but you don't want to be
short in that water and not a lot of green depth right there went with a
7-iron which is roughly my 190 club took a little bit off landed close to
pin-high it's been back a few feet but all in all we'll take it
all righty there's where it landed spun back to here roughly 30 feet left in
with the part here on 10 that pin location from that distance is a very
difficult one you want to make sure that you're
picking the correct club off the tee box get your number pick your target and
then swing don't sit there and focus on water short bunker long there's a lot
that can go wrong there focus in on your target and then pull the trigger
number 11 par-4 417 yards fairly straight away we're gonna be aiming at
the castle off in the distance the green kind of sits off back in there
we're in good shape right there 110 yards left to a back left hole location
I don't like swinging full at my wedges or hitting them very high unless I
absolutely have to want to flight it low swing smooth and easy so I'm going to
take an extra Club which will be my gap wedge flight it low control that
distance we ended up right here roughly 40 feet left we did miss it in the
proper place though short right there's not much green to work with back around
that hole location so if we would have gotten aggressive trying to fly it all
the way back there missed it long left leaves us a very difficult up-and-down
for par however we still have a birdie look missing it in a proper place
tap this in for the par that's a four here on 11 solid two putt right there
even par through 11 holes on number 12 par 4 410 yards little dogleg to the
right this hole sets up to my eye I'm going to
hit driver even though it is a little tighter up there I'm gonna pick a very
specific target kind of on the left side and let that butter cut fade right on
down the middle fairway
great shape right here I middle of the fairway slightly uphill 125 yards
we ended up right here not too bad pin high but it was left I did pull that
went with pitching wedge it was slightly uphill and into the wind but standing
over it I felt like it was a lot of club what ends up happening for me when I get
that thought should have backed off to start off with
however I will slow my lower half down causing my hands to release more and
release early causing that pole that's what happened there however 30 feet left
let's get it up and down
that's a par here on 12 even par through 12 holes pitching wedge back in the
fairway might have been the correct Club however I wasn't committed to the shot
maybe I should have switched clubs or maybe I should have just backed off
committed kind of reset and then started my pre shot routine again if you're out
on the course you have indecision you're standing over the ball back off go
through your pre shot routine again and pull the trigger number thirteen par-5
561 yards Green sits off back in there we're gonna be playing a cutoff at that
tree right there we've got a lot of room to the right so there's a perfect hole
for our baby cut I felt the wind kick up right there before I was about to hit so
I reset focused on tempo not getting quick in the transition when it gets
windy and I'm hitting a driver into the fan I typically get quick in the
transition causing a lot of spent causing a lot of offline tee shots so
try to focus on tempo right there and we execute it good shape right here 235
yards left up the hill into the wind probably playing to 50 should be a full
hybrid
I cut that just a little low on the face I didn't quite get the height that I was
looking for look like it just came up short kind of caught the lip of the
bunker kicked back down into the bunker let's get this up-and-down for bird as
you can see right there rolled back down that's what I looking at
and that's a tweeter here on 13 let's go and that's what we were looking for
right there missed it in the proper place going for
that green easy little bunker shot up the hill up and down birdie moves us to
1-under through 13 number 14 part three 146 yards slightly into the
wind I'm gonna hit a little three-quarter 9-iron keep it down below
the win
not a bad shot right there roughly 20 feet left let's roll the rock
I thought that one might break a bit more than it did however good speed it's
a part here on 14 number 15 par 5 544 yards bins off to the left just a little
bit our aiming points that tree right there
we had our target right there I made a good swing played the cut off of that
tree good shape to go for this green and to wanted to take a minute to say why I
pick out specific targets aim small miss small
pick a very specific target don't just hit to an area the fairway or an area of
the green your missus will be bigger that way because you actually don't know
exactly what you're aiming at pick a target pull the trigger good shape right
here 226 yards left to kind of a middle right
pin just over that bunker this is one of the few times that I'm gonna hit a shot
very full we're gonna hit a 5-iron which is asking a lot from this distance
especially with the cool temperatures but short is better than long
I thought if I hit that 5-iron as good as I could it would get there however it
ended up just short in the bunker but that was a good miss I was a calculated
miss for iron if I hit a decent it's probably gonna take a big bounce on the
green hopin that back bunker which is a much more difficult bunker shot than the
front one let's get this up-and-down walking up here it landed like right
here on the edge kicked all the way to the middle of the bunker that's what
we're faced with
that was a huge up-and-down for bird and that pin slammer right there moves us to
2-under through 15 on the number 16 par 4 what's up guys I've got some patrons
over here and some more over there they are just taking in the sights this
evening four hundred and thirty-four yards dogleg to the left green sits off
back in there and there is water on the other side of this water our aiming
point is going to be that corner of the house right there that was not good for
out a driver had one of those in the last video on number five just a block
cut spinning right that doesn't go very far however because it doesn't go very
far normally they stay in play so thankful for that let's find it and hit
it again here's where we are just missed the fairway 165 yards left to a back
middle pen
here's her we ended up definitely short hopefully 3035 feet short need to take
into account the colder temperatures it's been much warmer here in Tennessee
as of late and today the temperatures are below 50 I don't know what the
current temperature is but it was cold when I started I know it's gonna warm up
a bit but when the temperatures get below 50 ball just doesn't compress the
same doesn't fly as far and I need to take that into account
that's a par here on 16 little right but the number look to be good right there
drop down in the comments below do you have a pre-shot routine could you
write down on a piece of paper exactly what you do before every shot if you
don't I would highly encourage you to do so this will help you become much more
consistent on the golf course if you're doing the exact same thing every time
like I said a little right however that was a much better number right there
roughly 30 feet left for birdie
needed to give that one a bit more pace that was a great line and that's a part
here on 17 we are 2 under par through 17 holes birdie here on 18 would be huge
will put us into the 60s always a good day on the course when you're shooting
in the 60s number 18 par-5 597 yards pretty
straight away our aiming point is going to be that middle telephone pole do you
ever struggle lining up to the ball your targets way off in the distance and it
just doesn't translate to right here at the ball if that's the case find like a
broken tee maybe a blade of grass something that's in line with your
target about three feet out in front of the ball that way you can line up much
easier with a closer target give it a try let me know if it helps
I tried to reach back for that one probably swung at that a little too hard
wanted to give it a rip left that one out a bit right have a little tree
trouble we're gonna have to lay up here what I'm thinking is a little stinger
around the corner
well that was fun right there not sure that was quite in course
management 101 but if I hit a full good stinger right there it was gonna leave
me with a great number into this pin so it worked out had some fun let's go
knock this wedge close good shape right here 80 yards left three-quarter lob
wedge
and I think we hit down on a really good number let's go roll the rock and that
is how we went into right there roughly ten feet left great number the ducks
over there I think are cheering for that number because we haven't hit many
numbers today we did there all right that's a player here on the last hope
y'all enjoy coming along for this two-part series on course management I
hope some of these tips help you next time you get to tee it up if you have
any other questions drop down in the comments below let me know I had so much
fun out there hitting some stingers ball here on the last t-nut highlight and fly
roll in the rock finishing at 2-under par we'll take that if you enjoyed this
