Smart Aiming: Shifting the Miss Cone
Pros often aim their miss cone strategically, sometimes in seemingly counterintuitive directions. For example, aiming towards the trees on the right rather than directly down the fairway can potentially shift the worst 30% of misses away from hazards like water. This tactic allows golfers to make smart decisions that may appear risky at first glance but ultimately place their worst misses in safer locations, significantly improving their overall game performance.
