Try to have a good time no matter if you are playing good or not.If the course is beating you up find the positive things in life to focus on, adapt to the course,stick to your game and DO not focus on the negatives. CONFIDENCE IS THE KEY....!
I feel really good about my last 4 rounds of golf, despite missing like 20 putts from inside 25 feet through 4 rounds, 2 at Massillon -5 and - 4, and 2 at canton -5 and -5. Both days the first rounds I started out hott then fizzled out, then the 2nd round I started out slow then caught fire late in the round, this is a good sign for me because I dont really start playing my best golf till the middle of august. May the course be with you always...
Wow I couldn't beleive it, after one round of the hoc 2008, I was in 2nd place in the open division after a good first round. Now I'm on the lead card 3 shots behind one of the best golfers in ohio, we start the 2nd round on hole one at massillon these are my scores for the first half of the 2nd round: 3,2,3,3,3,3,2,2,2,3,3,2.... five down, I think I might have even taken the lead at this point.
Then I step onto the 14th tee thinking wow it would be nice to get like 3 or 4 more birdies by the end of the round, then I tee off trying to park the monsterous hole 14, about 40 feet out of my hand I say "OH NOOO" then smash into a tree and it lands directly behind the thickest tree on the course, I take my 5 and say out loud "if I had to take a 5 i dont mind that hole...
Well now to hole 15, which I almost skip aced in the first round, I take another 5, then i say thats ok still more birdies left to get out of the last 9 holes.... so the last half of the course goes 5,5,4,4,4,3,3,3,3,3,3 and i finish at 2 over.....
From 1st place to 8th place really in five holes. I have always had problems with consistancy from round . I guess thats why they call me DYNOMITE DAN DAVIS.
I played the first 37 holes like a 1020 rated pro, then I played the last 35 holes like a 940 advanced player. Some day I will finish off a tournament and actually play my game.
Well at least I dont choke under pressure during leagues, I will never give up and I will figure out how to hold it together when it really matters
