Guys i need some help regarding two holes, which play back to back and are almost single handedly stagnating my handicap.
Both involve very tight OB fences on the right and play into a sizable wind or worse most every time. Both have fairway bunkers on the left and plenty of wooden obstacles further left. Even if i haven't leaked left all day i almost always do on one or both of these holes, sometimes twice on the second one. Quite often if on a good score i aim at the fairway bunks and try to hit a solid fade. Sometimes it works and even if in the bunkers i am not THAT worried. However i can get ahead of the ball i think and the ball starts center or worse and fades right out of damn play.
Are there any practices i might be able to try? The first has a big overhanging branch from the right 50 yards out making it impracticle to go the draw or hook route and the second has a downhill tree lined right side as well, so draws starting on the right side are are out.
