Fear of scoring

[Brakkus]

I just wanted to share my personal demons with you all.I recently read The Inner Game Of Golf by Tim Gallwey and I have read about NLP training for your mind.
My point is I am not one to blame poor technical execution for my misses.I think most bad shots come from poor mental focus.My scores on a golf course come from fear.It leads to hesitant swings particulary on wedge shots or chipping.Funnily enough this is not the case with putting which I really enjoy.
From the tee I am usually quite fearless,iron shots the same,but the possibility of an approach sometimes affects me too,not in all cases.Also I believe that breaking 100 has started to become a barrier almost even though I don't make a big deal of it or count my score while playing I just know that a string of doubles on my card is adding numbers so it's there in my mind.
I suppose writing this is purging and a healing because the worst thing is to carry on hanging onto the belief that practice and play will cure these ills,but I truly believe this is down to mental patterns established from before so it's down to me to face it and beat it.
I shot 103,102,103,102 in my last 4 rounds so I know where the confidence goes.
I am now in the process of programming myself differently mentally and if I'm honest a proper pre-shot routine,I had one before but it was all show and only generally thought about.Other mistakes I have made include rushing shots not taking time to think about proper club selection based on lie or position in the course.
I thought I was doing these things well but being honest I was doing them in a general sense.Also I allow tension to build and expect too much from myself.I have lots of self belief but this translates into control from my mind,and I need to be free to play relaxed.

Anyone have similar feelings and how did you go about tackling this?After all players average handicaps have not dropped despite advancements in technology.It must be in the mind.

Same here, when I attack the ball I make better shots. When I am hesitant I chunk the ball.
