Most Greens Punish Short (So Stop Doing It!)
Pillar 2 • Short is Wrong; Right is Long
The Hard Truth about Front Trouble Bias
Courses are built to punish short misses: bunkers, water, false fronts. You know this. Yet you still underclub.
That’s not unlucky. That’s you being stubborn and not avoiding front trouble bias.
Do This Now
• Before every approach ask: what happens if I’m short?
• If short is bad, take more club and aim safe.
• Your goal is center green, not Instagram pins.

Quick Drill
• One-round challenge: aim at the fat part of every green. Change your course strategy by making sure you avoid front trouble bias like bunkers, avoid front water hazards, aim middle of the green, and track your GIR and doubles. Bet those numbers improve substantially when you do.
