Deal With Errors

One of the toughest things to do in a round is to not compound errors. Having the ability to take each shot as a separate entity is one of the most important things a golfer can do during any round. In order to do this, practice must be spent on various shots to assure preparedness for a miscue. Using a golf alignment mat, a golf putting green, a golf chipping mat, and even some limited flight balls, this all can be done from the backyard.

“I made absolutely nothing,” … “I just have to say terrible day on the greens. And I had it at the wrong time”-Tiger Woods

As many of you may have seen this past Sunday, Tiger Woods lost at the PGA Championship at Hazeltine to relative unknown Y.E. Yang. Tiger stated the biggest problem was his putting and lack of one putts was what doomed him as his ball striking was relatively good on Sunday. By practicing and putting in time everywhere, this likely can be prevented, but sometimes you just have to deal with these errors, as it can happen to even the best in the world.

As the old saying goes, “practice makes perfect.” Most golfers do not practice as much as they should, and because of that, they do not get the results they want on the course during a round. By taking a golf mat in the backyard, and by using a golf putting green, limited flight balls, and even a golf alignment mat, any type of practice you may need can be done in the backyard.

“Golf is not, on the whole, a game for realists. By its exactitudes of measurements, it invites the attention of perfectionists.”-Heywood Hale Broun

By trying to perfect your game in the backyard, not only will results become better, but it also will be easy and convenient to practice. Putting competitions with friends can be had on an outdoor putting green, and other games can be created to practice with the golf hitting mats.
