Knowing where to miss and when to take less club, listening to tour players and caddies talk they discuss every angle of the miss. Doesn’t hurt to have a little Houdini in your pocket!

@mikehiggins9464 ай бұрын
Nice round Kyle. I'm 61 and have been a Golf Professional and a teaching Pro since 1986. A couple of observations and hopefully helpful hints about your game that I see. 1) Play to your strengths but more importantly avoid your weaknesses. Case in point the hole you made double on (14 or 15). That's not a driver hole for you as your natural shot shape is a draw and it's more difficult for you to move it left to right. A long iron will still get you withing wedge distance and is easier to fade. The 2nd shot from the rough wasn't well thought out. It's almost impossible to curve the ball with a high lofted iron, especially out of the rough. Chip it back to the fairway and take 6 out of the equation. 2) Learn to hit (and maybe you have by now) the bladed wedge from just off the green when you have longer grass behind the ball. Try to strike the equater of the ball with the blade of your lob wedge. You'll be surprised how easily it will cut through the grass. I think you had 3 such situations on the back 9 and you putted each time with less than optimal results. I think you made the putts you were left with but those 4-6 footers will make you age prematurely. 3) Spend the time and get dialed in on your wedge game, which is basically 75% or more of your iron shots. This is where your incredible speed can hurt you if you don't learn how to dial it down from inside 130 yards. I remember when Tiger first came out on Tour he was very inconsistent with his distance control on his wedges. It was really his only weakness. Obviously he figured it out but it took him awhile. You can too. 4) Finally Kyle, I think you have a pure putting stroke. It reminds me of Bryson and maybe you copied his putting style which is great. You're very solid on the 8 footers and in but if Im not mistaken you missed every putt on the low side and more often than not short. Do you use a line on your ball like Bryson does? I would encourage you to do that. It helps you to realize how much putts actually break when you use the line to aim on mid to long putts because you always get the proper feedback right away. I started doing it late in my playing career and it helped tremendously. I took a lesson from James Sieckman, a noted short game teacher in Omaha whom I've known since Jr. High and he helped me a ton. Don't know if you've heard of him but he's excellent with anything inside 125 yards and especially chipping and putting. I hope you take this review of your game in the spirit in which it is intended. I think you have a rare talent for creating speed and you golf swing is very solid too. No overswinging out of balance flailing, just ridiculous speed from a textbook setup and fundamentally sound swing. What you're trying to do has never been done before, that being competing at the highest level of WLDC and simultaneously working towards competing at the highest level of tournament golf. I admire your talent and you seem like a cool dude as well, which is also very important. I wonder if youve heard from Greg Norman or anyone at LIV? I could definitely see you out there doing your thing. Best of luck to you and if you ever need a caddy I'd be honored.

Aside from your incredible distance, one can tell you are a really good person. You can ascertain what is best for your career with your beyond phenomenal abilities, as long drive obviously has to be your focus, as you do that better than anybody else on the planet. As I had written before, I have no doubt you could be a great tour player. All that you need to do is spend 4 or 5 mornings or evenings for 2-3 hours. Probably an hour hitting wedge shots from 150, 120, 100, 80, and 60 yards, then do about 45 minutes of chipping with starting with a 5-7 iron, and gradually practicing your flop shots with a 64 degree. Then a good 30-60 minutes of putting, gradually moving back in distance to 80 to 100 feet. You can get a touch from that range. I believe if you did that for 6 months, you would be doing well on the tour, if that is what you desire. But....maybe the best use of your time is for long drive.....as you know that and do that better than anybody else. Lots of good wishes for you.
