if you have a great short game than your putting doesn't need to be that good as long as you can sink a 3 footer. of if you have a great iron game then your short game isnt' too vital if you are always landing on the green. but driving can be the most important, i dont' care how well you do on par 3's if you drive in the sticks everytime making your iron shots hard and making yourself need to be a good aproach shooter or an outstanding putter.

so i can't relaly rate it it is all vital. i think that is like rating the arms in the swing vs. the upper or lower body, it is all vital, and all important.

so i think you should be good at all parts but if i had to be great in one, i think it would be short game. that takes care of two things, if you have a wild iron shot than you can recover with a good chip shot and it you have bad putting your great short game should eliminate the need for good putting if you can chip/pitch so close to the hole
