    I always play more aggressive regardless of the competition, but not necessarily scoring. After watching this video, I decided to start playing it safe and manage the course better. So this is my goal for the rest of the year. Keep up the great content!

    I enjoy it more when I go for it and hit really good shots, so I tend to be more aggressive. I also only play for fun, so a safer mindset would probably be best for anything where your score truly matters, haha.

  • @Kawboy65
    @Kawboy65 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    When I was younger, my "aggressive" mindset was to always hit every club as hard and as far as I could and leave myself with the shortest possible in to the green. Now my goal is to leave myself 100 yards in (on longer holes) and be deadly accurate from that distance. I also frequently choose to swing softer now, preferring to hit a choked up 9 iron vs a hard PW for example.
