I am very off and on with the ability to get a ding or near ding. I am wandering what method of tracking works best for all you dingers out there.
Do you concentrate your eyes on the ding line or do your eyes follow the meter as it moves towards the ding line?Do you use a counting method? What works? I know it will be a different strokes for different folks kind of answer but maybe I will see an idea that helps me.
I feel if I could improve my ding/near ding percentage I could drop several strokes from my average.
If you want to improve your game , you first have to improve in these areas .
Driving Acc.77.09%
G.I.R.69.19%
Distance to pin 16 ft.
One Putt % 30.49
Hitting the ding is not a guarantee , of shooting lower scores . Thats just a myth , to make you chase your tail . You have to learn ball placement , and good course management . It also takes good shot selection . Work on your short game , and get your pin distance down . That is a must , to improve your scoring .
Too hit the ding , you focus in front of the line , let the meter come to you .Much like playing baseball , you lead the meter . Personally , I only play the ding , on either head or tail wind shots . Other wise , I play off the ding , allowing for wind . From tee to green , its how I play . I even putt off the ding , allowing for break .
So the best way too improve your scoring , is by doing 1 thing . Practice , practice , and more practice . Work on those areas which I pointed out , and you will improve your game . Good luck , and hope this helps . :-)
