Quote:I've incorporated the "bump and run" quite a bit around the green. I'm a decent chipper with the sand wedge - but I've learned to use the PW or 9I to bump and run when the green is uphill a bit or just not very fast. It's saving me strokes. Mostly because I haven't mastered a flop shot yet.

(most of my woes are from the tee or second shot as I have an outside-in swing with the longer clubs that's I've yet to correct)


Luke Donald has some cool video clinics on short game that I found somewhat helpful.







Haven't played Eagle Harbor yet. Look forward to checking it out sometime down the road. There are deals to be had about the area down there on some amazing courses. During the summer you can find some really great deals at World Golf Village. I'd imagine their prices rise around late September though.

I'll be in Jax in two weeks and I'm looking forward to getting a round in somewhere as the season is nearly over up here.

Love playing bump and run around the green. It's become almost a long put for me. Then again, as erratic ad my long irons and hybrids can be, I'd better be pretty good around the green. I like a 7-iron or, most often, an 8-iron. As a matter of fact the grip on my 8 wears out faster than any club because I use it so much.


Maybe we could try to put together a MB 'tournament' when you are down?
