00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.880
This golf course game is Missamall. Missamall is a Dave Pels game, it's
2
00:00:05.880 --> 00:00:09.160
definitely one of my favorites for working on your short game and as the
3
00:00:09.160 --> 00:00:14.680
game sounds you're gonna try to intentionally miss every green. The rule
4
00:00:14.680 --> 00:00:18.360
that I added is basically from 50 yards and in you can't hit the green so if
5
00:00:18.360 --> 00:00:18.520
you
6
00:00:18.520 --> 00:00:24.120
accidentally hit the green from outside of 50 yards you're gonna put it off to
7
00:00:24.120 --> 00:00:28.240
wherever you want to. So the basic version is you just have to miss every
8
00:00:28.240 --> 00:00:32.560
green until you get inside 50 yards and then you can do whatever you want. So
9
00:00:32.560 --> 00:00:32.680
it
10
00:00:32.680 --> 00:00:36.720
really challenges you to work on your wedge play, forces you to try to get up
11
00:00:36.720 --> 00:00:40.720
and down every single time if you want to shoot any level of decent score. If
12
00:00:40.720 --> 00:00:44.640
you're a scratch golfer breaking 80 playing Missamall is definitely an
13
00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:50.200
accomplishment. Now the advanced version of Missamall is for each nine you've
14
00:00:50.200 --> 00:00:54.000
got to miss three three holes where you're in the fairway, three holes in the
15
00:00:54.000 --> 00:00:57.600
rough, three holes in the bunker and I can tell you that if you add that
16
00:00:57.600 --> 00:01:02.400
component it becomes a ball striking game just as much as it becomes a wedge
17
00:01:02.400 --> 00:01:07.210
game because if you're on the last hole and you have to hit it in a bunker I
18
00:01:07.210 --> 00:01:07.840
can
19
00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:12.240
tell you that most bunkers are gonna be much smaller than the the greens or the
20
00:01:12.240 --> 00:01:17.280
targets you'd be hitting on the greens so it challenges you to really focus on
21
00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:20.200
your ball striking as well because if you miss that bunker then you have to
22
00:01:20.200 --> 00:01:25.010
waste a whole shot hitting it maybe 10 feet to get it in the bunker. So Missam
23
00:01:25.010 --> 00:01:25.080
all
24
00:01:25.080 --> 00:01:29.440
was of course I used to play at least a couple times a month to really give
25
00:01:29.440 --> 00:01:34.200
myself a lot of practice with the wedges. I highly recommend it a couple weeks
26
00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:37.080
before a tournament to really start honing in on your short game and see
27
00:01:37.080 --> 00:01:41.520
where it's at and I really recommend it for challenging you to start thinking
28
00:01:41.520 --> 00:01:45.760
about where you would like to miss when you're hitting your approach shots into
29
00:01:45.760 --> 00:01:48.120
the greens.
