Common Par-3 Mistakes (Video)

The Meandmygolf guys did a short video on the most common mistakes made by all players (including pros) on par-3s.



Here, for your reference, is a list of the mistakes players most often make on par-3s.

1. Poor club selection
2. Flag hunting
3. Misunderstanding hazards
4. Underestimating elevation and wind
5. Wrong tee height
6. Ignoring your shot pattern

Note that all but tee height are strategy problems.

The last half of the video explains how to take these things into account. It's worth watching simply because correcting strategy problems is the easiest -- and fastest -- way to lower your score.
