As humans, we don’t do everything perfect every single time. Be it driving a car or shooting pool, we make mistakes. The golf swing/shot is no different. We would like to think we hit every 6-iron the same every day of the week but that is just not true. When selecting a club to hit, evaluate the safe and danger zones of the shot and try to play towards the safe side. This will help eliminate the big number on the scorecard and hopefully lower your score for the 18 holes.
A golfer can recover from a bogey, it is the doubles and triples that cause us trouble.
