When my swing is working the way it should, I can nail a drive 300+ and pretty straight - also, my iron ball striking is pretty solid - I can place a 2-iron about 240 yds with no more than 30 yds variation for a tight fairway.

My short game has improved dramatically since I started practicing almost every day hitting my lob wedge in open fields near my house and office during my spare time.

Probably from 100-160 yards out, I'm really accurate into the green. I'm a decent driver but my short game and putting lacks alot. I know I could score a heck of alot better if I was halfway good at either.

For my handicap I'd have to say from 150yd and in... not long with the driver and my putter can be flaky. Love to be inside 90 yards and/or chipping from anywhere!

My shortgame is key, My sand game and chipping is so good the average to the hole is like 5 feet. But anything over 5 feet im screwed lol. Once I work on putting I will be great.

My happy zone is, to be overly specific, the 110-140 yard range.

From the tee, I'm starting to become rather fond of my 5 iron. At my current level of inexperience, I'm actually feeling confident that I'll tag the green if it's in the 180-200 range.

So, I guess irons in general.

Considering my handicap, it's definitely my driving. I average about 70% driving accuracy with my driver, and the ones that I miss are typically playable.

This is not exactly like you guys, but I absolutely eat up par 3's. Maybe its that its so easy to make good contact with the irons and everything. I love threes also because i love having those pressure putts - always sink 'em.

I think my real stong suit, the more I think it's club selection. I may not always pull it off, but I never blame the club or play the, "Darn, I should have gone with ____ instead" card. Like when I 4-putt from 30 feet away, I never look at my putter in disgust and wonder what would have happened if I'd gone with a lob wedge.

My short game is strongest. A couple years ago I started focusin on keeping a steady head after reading a Golf Diget article by Hank Haney. I then bought a product on ebay called the Steady-Head which is pretty cool and actually works. I took 3-4 strokes off my game in less than one year by workin on the short game and keeping a steady head.

I am pretty good at tending the flag and driving the cart!

And I'm an ok putter and pretty good chipper. Everything else needs a lot of work.

I'm solid all around. Every once in a blue moon i'll fade/draw more than i wanted to but i don't en up too bad. I like hitting into trouble when i practice though so i can practice getting out, cause you never know what can happen in a tournament. So, maybe escaping from trouble when i need to can be the best part of my game since i practice so much. but my approach is great. i average about 13 feet from the pin on my approach shots.
