I was thinking a little about my game. I'm a bogey golfer and generally consider bogeys to be "ok." I don't give them much thought. 3rd shot on par 4s I'm usually around the greens. Pitch on and 2 putt. I may be on but a good distance away, 3 jack and walk off ok.
I've gotten used to this, and really don't give these holes a second thought. I focus on the holes I had a double or worse on, try and find the cause, and that becomes what I try and practice before my next round.
My problem may be complacency. If I learn to focus on every shot and try and play for par more often that may help decrease my scores, but with the rest of reality (work, baby, assisting extended family) and golf being more than anything an escape for me right now, I convince myself that this approach would just take too much energy.
Is this something the rest of you have to wrestle with in order to improve?
