Does anyone else play with an imaginary caddy in their head? I have been doing this lately and I find it really helps to have this objective voice in your head helping you through the round. It really helps me think through shots and slow down my decision making (this doesn’t delay my play though as I tend to figure out shots while other people hit). One real upside to the imaginary caddy is when I hit a bad shot instead of me getting mad at myself, my internal caddy encourages me. After all if your caddy called you a dumba$$ after a bad shot they would be out of work.

I am glad i left out the part about having conversations with the caddy in my head - I have never taken him him for a beer at the 19th hole though.

If my imaginary caddy gives me bad advice, I take out my imaginary Glock and shoot him in the kneecaps.

You gotta be firm with these guys or they never learn.

I used to do this, but then, after hitting a great approach shot one day, I turned to a friend I was playing with and said, "Stevie, would you please get me my putter?" He told me I wasn't as good as I evidently thought I was.

      Struggling With Fat Shots and Dont Know Why

      By GolfLug ·

      Imma throw a dart in the dark as no one can tell what is happening once every fourth iron shot per your OP. This might sound counterintuitive but if ball position is too far back in the stance folks are known to throw down clubhead steeply. Could be happening. And yes, @billchaois not wrong; clubhead tends to bottom out wherever your pressure is. So slide forward (not sway), then hit.

      Day 24: Missed my weekly round due to a last minute little league makeup game this morning. Managed to get in some backswing rehearsals while grilling sausages for dinner, and then putted around the office/laundry room after dinner.

      but I don't understand how that's possible you still want your head to stay back you don't want the upper body coming forward and plus I've tried feeling that and it made my fat shots worse and I then tend to pull and sky all my shots especially with driver because I get in front of it dont need force plates to see i finish on my left side
