Re: Par 3...lay up?

Course management is ALWAYS the way to play any hole. If you are not going to make the shot you are attempting 7 or 8 times out of 10, don't waste your time and balls trying to make it. Play the odds. I have read a lot of your posts and by laying up and playing that extra shot will keep you positive and if you get on in two, your confidence will go up. After a few times successfully playing the two shots into that green, you may be ready for the next step. in making the 160 yard shot straight through a 20 yard alley, at that time.
