PBFU= Post Birdie "F" Up. I'll let you use your imagination for what the "F" stands for. A PBFU, for those who don't know, is when you birdie a hole, and on the next hole, you shoot a bogey or worse.

I had a horrible PBFU on Wednesday. I got on the green in 3 (par 5) and made a 16 foot put for birdie. Then the very next hole, shot a double bogey.

Who else tends to screw up right after a nice birdie? And what are some ways to get my mind off of thinking about screwing up?

forget you made the birdie...... i do the same thing if i make a great shot or do somthing amazing "in my eyes" i tend to let my focus go away and think about $hit...... keep focusing on your whole game dont get exited for one hole and then blow up on the next..... dont think ok i got 1 im good...... think ok i got 1 im gonna make another one now keep positive and keep focusing on your game

Ya I tend to think about that birdie and how it cancelled out an earlier bogey.

Then I start thinking about my score and what I need to do to keep it low.

I gotta start playing shot by shot.

absolutely play shot by shot. and just advance to what you're going to do next. that goes the same for bad shots, stay in the current.

I always heard it as "FUAB".

Same thing. They both suck.

I used to do this a lot. I stilll do it some. My problem was letting my emotions get high after a birdie and not staying focused on the next shot. Now I try focus on keeping my emotions in check. I refuse to be happy after a birdie. The look on my face is like I just tapped in for bogie. If I can do this throughout the round and stay focused on the next shot, then I MIGHT be able to celebrate after I pull my ball from the 18th hole.

      Day 35, June 8. Before leaving for work this morning (yes, I'm posting this quite late relative to the practice), I spent 15 minutes practicing at home, into a net.  This time, it was primarily 9-iron (full swings), with some UW (full and half) and a few 6-iron.

      Day 73: just some mirror work today. Working on feels for being open and getting the front shoulder down.

      I'm liking this. Finally getting down hands in front of my trail leg pocket consistently at A6 with much better clubhead position (relatively not as tipped out). I can really pressure the shaft through impact with good face control  from this position and stay in balance. Won my first one v one march 5&4 against a 4 hcp who routinely drives it 35-40 yards past me in the men's club match play . Frustrated him with some solid iron play and air tight putting.
