Pressure is on. You are playing a round with some extra meaning/pressure to you (THP event, competition. playing with the boss). Your game is not there and you feel like your are flailing. Thinking one shot or hole at a time is not bringing you back. Do you have a special shot or new approach that you employ, or do you keep trying to play your standard game, hoping things improve?
I have been in these situtaitons (e.g., THP event) and didn't have a go-to alternative. I just kept grinding and hoped my game would come back around. In one case I recall a swig from a partner's flask. Unsurprisingly, that didn't help although I was a little more calm. In retrospect, trying something different with my game probably would have helped. 6 iron off the tee. Hit half or 3/4 punch shots. Start putting from 100 yards away. Something.
What do you do? Has it worked for you?
