Hey, I have been gone from here a while but i still have been playing a lot. It has always occurred to me that the easiest strategy for a good score is to throw for par. That is Lay it up and play it safe until you get an easy par save putt. Just because i have realized that doesn't mean that is how i play. I go for the ace every shot if it is doable. When i analyze a hole for my throw if the basket is in a place where i know that if i match my best shot i can hit it then i go for it. This has caused my score to not reflect what i believe my ability is. I can now consistently hit between 4 and 8 over on most familiar courses. This includes multiple bogeys and multiple birdies every round. I know that all i need is consistency to be hitting under par. My question is should i play it safer or should i keep challenging myself to hit the shots i know i am capable of? Hole 4 back 18 of la mirada is a perfect example, I can ace that i haven't yet but i have gotten many birdies. I have gotten in trouble way more often i hit trees hit the hill have a bad release angle, but i know i can hit it. Should i keep going for it or just lay it up? Btw i still haven't aced anything over 275 which is the point where i will actually count it as a true ace.
