In many cases for the average golfer, a gamble occurs when there is an option to either go for the green, or hit back out onto the fairway and play safe. At other times, you may be confronted with the choice of going over trees or hitting a safe shot to the middle of the fairway.
How you play these shots depends on how well you are playing on any given day, especially if you are in the middle of a close match. It’s fun to gamble but it’s no fun to lose or finish with a much higher score. This is one call we have to make individually.
