Default Taking it to the next level

I'm a scratch golfer who's pretty strong in all areas...I get a free lesson today, what should I think about working on trying to take my game to the next level?

I think you should learn how to play consistent over 4 days and enter a qualifier and go pro...and when interviewed thank 2+2 for all the help

You have to have a weak point, if you don't think you do you have to look closer. Saying your game is all around solid is vague, because it probably is compared to a 10 handicap, but you have to know your weaknesses.

I would take an overall lesson and ask the pro where your weak spots are.

Well, not really because I'm very very very consistent. My SD for rounds played is probably +/-2 strokes for my cap on a course. I honestly think my weak point is not knowing how to THINK about the game like a pro would, but I don't think I could learn that from this teacher...

So, I was wondering if anyone knew a particular skill that might elevate my game, given that there aren't any glaring holes in my game.

Have a playing lesson with a pro.

Why you should not hit driver here, why you should aim left of this pin etc...

As has already been said, you have glaring holes in your game even if YOU can't see them. I could give you two a side and win more often than not and I admittedly have several GLARING holes in my game.

Everybody has glaring holes, even tour players.

Do you have a pre shot routine? Do you ALWAYS follow it?
