temperment

This is a tip I was given by a sports psychologist. He said that once you hit a bad shot take 2 swings (fast swings) to rid the feeling and the anger from that shot. After the 2 swings then take another 2 swings that feel good and are close to your prefect swing. Then place the club back in the bag.

This means that when you put the club back in the bag you do not have a bad feeling or memory about that club. I use this all the time and find this works.

That's all well and good so long as you're not holding anybody up by doing that 5, 10, 20 times per round.

If I really hit a bad shot I like to just drop the club at the end of my follow-through, kind of like I've seen Tiger do with his driver a few times, though he actually kind of throws his half the time. I just let it drop right down where my ball used to be.
