For those of you who take the LIRR to play Bethpage, on a lark, I tried walking from the station to the clubhouse today. It's not a bad walk - about 20-25 minutes - and it was pretty toasty out there today. I'd lighten my bag 2 or 3 pounds next time, but it's something I'll be trying more often.

For a perspective on the price, if you walk, and you already have an unlimited Metrocard, the cost to get to Bethpage is the same as it is to take the van to the range at Randall's Island.

Around what time did you get there? Which day of the week?

I tried it on a weekday, but it doesn't matter when you get there, the walk takes the same amount of time.

I really don't need to save money that badly, but it's another option that's available.

Most people are probably thinking, uh-huh, I'll take the cab, thank you.

How'd you do? What did you shoot? What was the condition of the course? I'm looking to play bethpage in a few weeks- to test my self against tough conditions. I've been getting a lot of birdies on my usual course... Cant wait to triple bogey bethpage!

Yeah, a lot of pressure. Rise above it. Harness in the good energy, block out the bad. Harness energy, block bad.
Feel the flow, Happy. It's circular. It's Like a carousel. You get on the horse. It goes up, down and around. Circular. Circle. With the music,the flow. All good things.I...

      Discipline

      By MentalityJohn · Posted

      Great post and I agree with almost all of it. The discipline piece is real — most golfers want the result without the reps. One thing I'd add: there's a version of discipline that happens away from the range too. The 20 handicapper who texts the next day with a full-speed video — that's not just a practice discipline problem. That's an identity problem. He still sees himself as a 20 handicap who's trying something new. He hasn't made the internal shift to being the golfer who practices with intention. I work on the mental side of the game and what I've found is that the golfers who actually stick with the slow, boring, disciplined practice are the ones who've done some internal work on who they believe they are as a golfer. The ones who quit after two range sessions never changed the story they tell themselves. They're still running the old software. Discipline isn't just "will you do the reps." It's "do you believe you're the type of golfer who does the reps." That belief piece is what separates the ones who text you the next day with a full-speed swing from the ones who actually put in the work.
