Finding The Fairway
Golf Digest Middle East|July/August 2018

Finding The Fairway

When you’re hitting an approach shot, the yardage to the green immediately points you to a particular club. From 150 yards, you might think, That’s my 6-iron. From 180, Gimme the 5-wood. You base those selections on the thousands of shots you’ve hit with those clubs. Better yet, think in terms of averages. Maybe you’ve crushed a few 7-irons 150—or even did it routinely 20 years ago—but the way you hit it now on average is the info you should use.
