So I can torpedo this thread late in the year and praise/mock you.  Clive: my short game, specifically my putting, chipping, and pitching (in that order). |

Between GIR's and putting. I'd like to get to double digits for GIR's and avg. 30 putts per round.
Last year 34 putts and ~7 GIR.

I still have a problem slicing the ball with my driver so I'm going to work on that. I've read many articles on how to cure the slice, but have never taken a golf lesson from a pro. That may be in order.
My short game with my irons is pretty good right now. My putting is ok, but I'll continue to practice putting as there is still room for improvement.

Ups and downs. Too many two puts after chipping within 5 ft. I could, probably, drop 2 to 3 strokes per round.

I'm gonna play more. This year sukked for a lot of reasons, and golf took a big back seat. I went to the range several times, and hit "some twilight" by my self, and played a few holes "for fun".
Next year, I will actually play more true rounds, and play a lot.
My Game: I just need consistency. And I think that will come with playing more. No 3 week layoffs, without even touching a club.

Got to be to play more golf -- after playing only 3-4 times last year I've got to get out this year. Once there, I have two goals more fairways and more GIR.

More golf. Less work.
I made the commitment to my golf instructor that I would cut down the ho'ing and spend the money on lessons.
