After the round I played yesterday, all of them. :act-up:
Mostly none...I'm getting better at accepting there will be some variance in my game and things aren't going to be perfect. But some days I can fight a particular miss - sometimes right, sometimes left. If either of those is in my repertoire that day it will get in my head and I'll fear it.Ok, let me amend this a bit. I see everyone picking a specific shot that may arise a few times in the round. I am refering to what fear is holding back from playing better than you do. For example when you are on the tee, What shot are you afraid will show its head when you swing the driver. Its this shot that keeps you from swinging free, its this shot that makes you try to steer the ball off the tee. It may be these shots that are keeping your handicap higher than it should be.

The block or push off the tee. I tend to play a draw, and can account for that, but when I get quick and block it right when I'm already set up right, I get in trouble.Ok, let me amend this a bit.

Short shots over a hazard. It can be as simple as a pitch over a trap or a short par 3 over water. I have no idea why they bother me so much either, but I absolutely tense up and it affects my game. I'm getting better about the short shots over bunkers with some practice, but there's nothing more terrifying in golf for me than standing over the ball on a par 3 over water.
Longer shots over water do not bother me at all. We have a 200 yard Par 3 over a pond on my home course and it does not bother me at all, but a 120 yard shot over water and I'm done. Just one of those odd mental things for me. Lack of confidence, I guess.
Any pitch shot between 35 and 65 yards unless it's from a bunker or I have a fluffy lie. If you find me facing that shot on the course I've made a terrible mistake. It's only happened once or twice this year in 19 rounds.
