As we all know, the mental side in this game is important, and a lot of the issues we have are related to the human mind.
What I've noticed often is that if I play well in the beginning, I start to think about the end result and I often play a bad back 9. If I play so-so golf on the front and I "know" the PB or par round is lost, I play pretty well, since there's no pressure to perform.
I've played several times the back nine to par when the front has been like 40-45 shots. Yesterday I played the front nine -1, and I let the idea of a good final score enter my mind. I ended up playing the back nine +6.
Any tips on how to stop thinking about the final score, or any tips on how to not it let impact my performance if I think about the final score?
