Course Management: Smart Choices
Play to your strengths, avoid your worst outcomes, and pick targets that keep doubles off the card.
Core Idea
Aim for the best next shot. Choose lines and clubs that avoid penalties and leave playable approaches.
High-Percentage Choices
- Bail side: Favor the side with recovery space.
- Club down: Remove long hazard risk if gains are minimal.
- Center targets: Middle green beats short-side dead.
Track it in ClearCut
- Tee: Record fairway side and distance to see patterns.
- Approach: Miss direction and proximity reveal smart targets.
- Hazards: Toggle bunker/penalty to identify blow-up holes.
TL;DR
Choose targets that avoid your worst miss and set up a playable next shot.
