Question:
I agree!!! This is like a chapter right out of one of Bob Rotella’s books. Rule #1: HAVE FUN. Scott
Response:
Sometimes we spend so much time and effort in trying to improve our performance that we forget why we play the game to begin with. I’m as guilty as the next guy when it comes to over analyzing my golf swing. It seems when I relax and enjoy being on the golf course and with my friends, I play my best golf. For me a bad day of golf is better than a good day at work. The world won’t come to an end if I miss a putt or hit it out of bounds I know that I’m never going to make the PGA Tour. Have fun, enjoy your time on the course. Celebrate your good shots and don’t be so hard on yourself when you miss one. "Golf is a good walk spoiled" Mark Twain – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Last night I dug out a lesson video from July, 1992. It was my first serious series of lessons… the genesis of what became a seven year quest to become a golfer. This tape could have been recorded last week. I was doing all the same things wrong then as I’m doing now (must not have been as wrong, however… my handicap was 10 less than it is today). Bottom line is that I’m not getting it. I feel like a golfer trapped in a non-golfer’s body, and I haven’t found any clinics in Denmark that can help me out. Fish gotta swim, birds gotta fly. I’m resigned to the fact that with a club in my hand I’m a fish out of water. You can’t say I didn’t perservere or give it a good effort, but there comes a time when you have to admit that enough’s enough… and now is the time. Thanks for the help and encouragement received from all BW (Jeff Buege)
