Make sure to grab Wicked Smart Golf in a hardcover on Amazon! Today's five-minute Friday is stop trying to hole putts and focus on building confidence from "making putts" even if they don't go in. As Dr. Parent said in episode 320, "You want your confidence based on whether you make them or not. Make, and making them means you like the way you got them started. So focus on that and let that be your confidence builder and say, man, I'm putting great. They're just not going in. Maybe I'm not reading. Maybe I need to read a little more break in or if I'm missing them low, or maybe I'm overcompensating and reading too much. I'm going to adjust, but I'm not going to change my stroke or my routine because I'm making every putt."

Whether you realize it or not, most trouble is short of the green. While some holes might have a bunker or water behind the green, most of the trouble is short. Why? Because greenskeepers know that most golfers end up short and thus put the trouble accordingly. If you're between clubs, pick the longer one in general (unless there is trouble long). Try not to pull the club that you must hit perfectly to reach the green. After learning more course management inside the DECADE program, the numbers show that missing long is almost always better than short. This should cause more looks for birdies so you can score consistently better. WICKED SMART GOLF Recommended Products Decade Golf - The #1 Course Management System (use code WICKEDSMART to save 20%).
