"High side - low side", "above - below"

Posted by MB

Question:

When putting, is there a term top of the hole or bottom of the hole? If so, please explain.

Jerry Gauthier
Athelstane, Wisconsin

Answer:

Hi Jerry,

Since the putting surface is rarely perfectly level, the words or phrases commonly used to describe what you are talking about are "high side" and "low side", or "above" and "below" the hole. Though I haven't heard "top" or "bottom" used very frequently in this context they are also reasonable. Thanks for visiting PGAProfessional.com and best of luck with your game. MB

Cinderella Stories

Wow, Graeme McDowell and Louis Oosthuizen as Open Champions. Actually, if you think about it, there have been quite a few Cinderella stories over the last few years.

Keeping Score

Posted by MB
One of my students told me they had not started keeping score yet, because the boxes on the card were not big enough. smile So I went ahead and turned it into a cartoon in my entertainment section.

That is actually a great place to be. If you are at that level don't even think about scoring for a while, just keep focusing on your lesson concepts, awareness, execution and feedback.
