I am trying to come over to the control camp....
I could probably hit 75% fairways if I dialed down to a 80%/240yd swing.
Problem is, I have always had trouble with approach shots and that extra 2 clubs difference means a lot to me...Stats from OOB seem to indicate that I can get up and down better from 150 (rough or fairway) than 175 (fairway). While this might be deceptive, it seems to hold true for me for the most part.

But that was the theory up until a month ago...
i am actually starting to hit my approach shots better and I am seeing better control on the longer approach shots. thus I would rather be in the faierway as some of the newer courses I am trying to play are a little tighter than my normal ones...

Also looking at OOB stats, it seems I need to get my blowup holes under control if I want to score better. Those 2-3 double bogeys are killing me (usually as a result of a REALLY errant drive)...Turn 2 of those into bogeys and 1 into a Par and I am shooting in the upper 70's...
