simple. hit the ball softer. No, really, you can control distance by controlling trajectory. If you have a hard time controlling distance with the 56 degree, try hitting a soft 52. It will go lower and because the bounce is less, it is easier to hit it soft without the club bouncing off the turf and hitting the ball thin. Try new thing and keep it simple.

My swing thoughts:

- Negative thinking hurts more than negative swinging.
- I let my swing balance me.
- Full extension back and through to the target. - I swing under not around my body. - My club must not twist in my swing. - Keep a soft left knee

I saw that TGC The Fix episode with Faldo too. But not only did he talk about 9 o'clock, 10 o'clock, etc. But I thought his best advice was to take your sand, hit some full shots. Then switch to your pitch and work on hitting it the same distance as your full sand. Then do the same with your 9, then your 8. That seems an awesome way to work on the feel for partial shots, and something I'm gonna start incorporating at the range!

    • Keyword there was "yesterday" lol. At least it's going to be competitive now.
    • Well, they are. 😳 😄 
    • Ehh, it was kinda bad yesterday. Especially from the European side.  Min Woo Lee, Adam Scott, Sungjae, and Bezuidenhout combined for 4 birdies yesterday... Theegala wasn't good from the US side either.
    • Yah, a little over the top barking behind SS's back and walking away before he putted out (that is straight up poor form IMO), etc. Seems to be trying to punch above his weight class. But then on the same note it's hard to stay awake for a couple of hours of telecast outside of this no? The golf is not bad but there's no soul and that's not the player's fault.  I read something about him 'blaming the Canadian crowd' for their Day 1 plight but that also seems to be a bit of a writer's distortion of what he said as to me it seems he is simply asking the crowds to get a bit more involved. That's fair. Ya' know, the positive, loud energy these type of events need and feed off of. My two cents.  
    • Until the International team does something… I don't know about "waste of time" and the surrounding area benefits economically, the players might enjoy it… etc. But it's not super interesting.
