Straight Shot

This is how the conversatiom goes:
"It is a very short Par 4, if you can drive 220, 230 yards, you can reach the green in one...."
"...then it is meant for you, that is the right distance and you said you can drive straight now..."
"Do you know how accurate you need to be to do that? The green is surrounded by hazards..."
"Didn't you say you can drive straight?"
"Straight in the range of +/- 25 yards on either side."
"haha, what a large margin of error for the word 'straight'..."

If straight shot is executed and external factor such as wind or air temperature is not affecting the outcome, then I believe the issue of failing to reach green in one is not in golfing anymore.

How many kind of straight shots can one execute? I wonder...

If you are the pro who play golf like drinking water, you can :). How many times we have such thoughts and actions and we still fail? many times until I lost count ... to the end, we are not up to the level yet :). Keep on practising!

The point is +/- 25 yds left and right shots are not called straight shots, it is called push or pull shots.
