1. A 10 index.
2. Tee the ball higher.
3. Short game really DOES matter.
4. Play every round till the end, don't give up.
5. Convert more often than not (the up and downs)
6. 3 putts are evil

..for now

Just to clarify the comment I made above (#4), I'm not asking what your goals for 2006 are. We have a separate thread for that (right here).

If you read the article you'll see it has nothing to do with goals. Mostly just general issues in golf...

More competative golf is on my mind - The seniors and the ladies look to be a lot of fun to watch this year. One of the great things about these tours is they seem to always have a lot of the tops guys (or gals) playing each week. Not looking forward to the Nationwide, as we will get to see the good players from there in the PGA this year.

Speaking of the PGA, it will probably the year of the Tiger, again, but I am looking forward to how spots 2 thru 5 turn out. Tiger - Ernie - Goose - Vijay - Phil is my guess.

One thing I disagree with most of the commentators on is this being the year of the new guy. Sure Holmes and Oberholser racked up their first wins but once the season is in true full swing I think the Veterans will dominate. I hope I am somewhat wrong though, as it is always nice seeing new(ish) faces.

1. See how Tiger fares in '06
-hopefully very well

2. Seems like Lehman's getting his game together. Its been a while since we've had a playing captain in the Ryder Cup.

3. Camilo Villegas
-I love this kid. I hope he keeps his card. First win?

4. See if Ernie's got his groove back.
