    Default OZgolfer Tips that you use

    I'm wondering if there are any tips or things from other OZgolfers that you use out on the course.

    I've got two that come to mind.
    Number one is something I remember reading from golfer69 about not taking a line outside the cup for putts. Sometimes it takes me a couple of holes to go back to implementing this (like today), but it works very well on greens that aren't really breaking.

    Number two, and this is fairly recent for me, is from watching Gazgolf make short putts. He sort of follows through over the top of the hole. I found, despite being a relatively confident putter, that I was getting a little nervy over short, bloody easy putts even though I probably wasn't really missing them much. So I've started trying to emulate Gaz (after discussing it a little with Rusty), and it's going great for those putts. The distance that I do this seems to be creeping out too (moreso on the practice green of course).

    Am I the only one taking tips from "hack" OZgolfers?

    I have never got a tip from an Ozgolfer, they all come to me for them.

    dc68 tipped me off that golfer69 is a wanker. I reckon he might have been right!

    I also won an NTP in a corporate day at RQ, so you need to emulate that.
