Look at it this way: Good shots are worthless if you don’t know how to play the game. There are some great shot-makers on the PGA Tour that hardly ever win. A good example would be Sergio Garcia.

Look at golf’s big winners, the greatest players weren’t just good shot-makers, they knew how to play the game. They knew how to control their emotions, when to take risks (when not to ), they knew gamesmanship and they knew how to use strategy.

To play better golf: 1) Practice. 2) Learn to play the actual ”game.” It is a game isn’t it?
