I think it's very overrated. One of my regular playing partners obsesses over working the ball, yet it's one of the biggest downfalls of his 17 handicap.

Hit the ball straight and you're bound to get into single digits. I know I don't bother working the ball.

Agree completely. Countless times I have seen golfers (my uncle is a perfect example) trying to hit that fade or draw and disaster ensues. For us average golfers (5-25 handicap), I think more CONSISTENT success, results, lower scores - whatever you want to call it would occur by playing a straight shot or your natural shot (baby fade, etc).
