Played 18 holes today and really struggled on the greens....hit everything else ok but the putter was a huge problem....granted they had just verti cut the greens and they were hard and REALLY FAST..but still...I had 4 three putts and 1 4 putt!
Its really bothering me because I used to consider myself a very good putter...I really wonder if I am using the right type of putter.
My putting has been very good but based on how well I was rolling the Odyssey ProType #7 at Golfsmith recently I think my putting could get even better once I have one in the bag.
Well I just read through this thread as I've missed a lot this past week and a bit and congrats on all the great prep by everyone. In some ways I think this 2 week break will be very good for my golf game. The rest (from golf) will do my body good, and it has really given my shoulder a chance to heal up a little bit which will only help from now on.
I was also starting to take golf and my scores a little too seriously, and this break has really gotten my golf game back into perspective. I think being more relaxed out there and enjoying the game more will be good for me, I'm going to work as hard if not harder on my game then ever when I get home, but when I play a round of golf, that will just be for me, and just for fun.
It's always a good read to see the ups and downs of everyone as you prepare for this great event. It really is a cyclical cycle and I for one can tell you that you will have ups and downs. Sometimes it's just good to take a break for a few days and you'll come back with a fresh perspective. I've found that when you do go back out there, a lot of times the things you've have been working have clicked into place...it's quite refreshing. So, keep at it and don't get frustrated.
I actually had to do that myself. The thing I left myself with was some video of some pretty awful swings. I analyzed and just replayed to see what the issue was. I went out yesterday with some good tips to work on and I struck the ball beautifully.
So, don't get frustrated, take a break from hitting clubs and gain some fresh perspective.
Nice to read all of the hard work everyone is putting in from your game to repping your sponsors. Keep it up!
Very solid TBT. That round could have gone way south with that start. Good on you for beating it mentally.Got out this afternoon to play and things didn't start out very, started out with 2 doubles in the first 3 holes...I really had to stop and think about what I said about not getting down on myself...bounced back and parred the last 3 holes for a 45, then shot 39 on the back.
I really credit everything with stopping clearing my mind and slowing own. I made a conscious effort to only swing about 85% and suddenly everying was going right at the hole. It was funny I didn't even know what I shot in the back and was actually surprised when I added it up.
Cant wait to hit the course again this weekend

It's easier to get on a bad roll than off of it. Really takes a strong mind to break it. I bet it was very eye-opening for you! remember that momentThanks Biggsy...I really just had to clear my head and slow down...started double, bogey, double, par, triple...that's when I backed off and started swinging smooth...8 over for first 5 holes and only 4 over for text 13 holes...and actually barely missed a couple of putts that could have made it even lower.........it was really an eye opening experience.
I like it tyno. I reckon I've been prep'ing in similar fashion. It's funny how the more time I'm getting under my belt with the Black 3wood, the more I'm liking it. I'm starting to really crank it up as well. I still haven't hit it off the deck, as that's what the Mashie FW's are for, LOL.
That Black 3wood is just so stinking forgiving. I'm seeing very minimal lateral movement so I need to stop aiming a little right and expecting my cut to come into play.
