Play Smarter, Score Lower: Course Strategy and Management Clinic

Course strategy and management is the art of making smart decisions on the golf course that lead to better outcomes and lower scores — without changing your swing.

“Golf is 20 percent talent and 80 percent management.” – Ben Hogan

Poor decisions such as risky club selection, overly aggressive shot choices, ignoring wind and hazards, or failing to play to your strengths can easily cost several strokes per round. In fact, “blow-up” holes account for nearly 80 percent of the scoring difference between an 80 and 90 golfer.
