Yesterday was 108, today 110. I had a birdie on the hardest hole of our course. New goal is 105. Still had a bunch of penalty strokes if I get that under control I could be sub 100.

Congrats!  Sounds a little like my weekend, though I'm a bit behind you with a 118 on Saturday.  Had a 108 Sunday, but it was off the Senior tees just for ease of play with my Father.

I have made up my mind, I will not try to make up for a bad shot with another bad shot. I am going to play smart next time out and try to break 105.

Ray Floyd says that the first rule of being in trouble is making sure you are not in trouble on the next shot.  You are at a point where reading Ray's book, Elements of Scoring, might pay off.  The book isn't about the swing, it is about course strategy and scoring well even when you aren't playing your best.

But then again, what the hell do I know?

      Bailey Shoemaker's Pre-Shot Routine at ANWA

      By bkuehn1952 · Posted

      We had a member of our senior club who developed a mental block on pulling the trigger. I played with him to see what the membership was talking about. I timed him a few times when he would get over the ball. 45 seconds. He knew he had a mental block and would chide himself, “Just hit it!” Once on the green he was okay and chipping was a bit better. It was painful to watch him struggle. Our “bandaid” was to put him in the last tournament  tee time with two understanding players. We should have suggested to him to take a break from our tournaments. I agree with the idea that when a player realizes they have a problem, the answer is to go fix it and not return until they are able to play at an acceptable pace.

      Day 56 (4 May 26) - Worked on some ball-then-ground drills - going from P3 thru impact - with a slowed tempo, working to keep all parts in sync.
