"Playing Through"

Today I want to talk a little about "playing through".....

A lot of people get uncomfortable and start to really play poorly when they are being "pushed" by the group behind them. Always keep in mind that your pace of play is just that....your pace of play. Some of us play slower than others, the key is to know when to let someone pass your group.

A good rule to follow is.....if the group behind you has been waiting on their shots for two holes, and the group in front of you is more than half a hole ahead of you, you should let them pass.

I have been in both fast and slow groups, and the uncomfortable feeling of having a group right "on your tail" can really ruin your game. If you let them pass, you'll golf better, they'll golf better, and everyone will enjoy their day.

See you on the course.
