Make your own luck
Distances that make the difference

Last week, we spoke about the importance of knowing your best and average yardage for every club in your bag. And when it comes to par 3s, there are three more yardages to consider if you want to make your own luck and hit more greens.

Once you’ve noted the danger (bunkers and water), the wind direction and strength, and the elevation to the green, note the following three distances from the tee box:

Distance to the front of the green.

Distance to the pin.

Distance to the back of the green.

A recipe for luck

Know all your yardages. Observe course conditions. Practice like you play. Develop a repeatable swing. Check all those boxes and you’re effectively making your own luck!

A happier, luckier playing experience

If there’s any area of your game that you’re struggling with, we’re here to help. The best way to improve your experience is with an assessment, a lesson or playing a few holes together, or all of the above.
