I'm not sure at the moment, as a lot of parts for my game are in transition. In general, I'll say "consistency". I have shots that I can hit well, but my problem is having the fluke shot out of nowhere in which I forget everything I've learned. It'll pop up in pitches, chips, driving, just about everything. Which aspect of my game is affected the worst is basically dictated by the day I play. Lately I've had a lot of trouble reading greens. I hope winter conditions and poor green quality are to blame for at least part of it, because I was getting the hang of it last fall but then this last month I haven't read greens worth beans. I know part of it is poor green quality causing skips and bumps and odd speeds, but I hope that a lot of it is that.

Chipping and pitching, definitely.  My full swings and putts make me look like a golfer who should score at least 10 under what I actually score.  The difference is what happens when I miss the green in regulation.  That 3rd shot on par 4's, or 2nd shot on par 3's, is usually very ugly.  Missing the green in regulation usually translates to a double bogey at least.  Up-and-downs are almost non-existent.

Now that is a true statement.  I will keep that one to reuse.

I think my short irons, unfortunately.  I recently changed my swing to correct a right to left problem with my driver and it has somehow affected my short iron play.  But I'll get is worked out.
