Golf slide -

Tough season for you. I’m sorry, stylin. Once I left the tournament circuit, I started to love the game again. A bad game no longer meant hours on the range afterwards fixing a real or imagined problem. I don’t practice any more (no time anyway) and my handicap has gone up from 6-8 to 10-12, but it’s a joy again to be out there. I focus only on gratitude - for the health to be able to walk and play 18 holes, the means to afford to play the game, the occasional brilliant shot, and the companionship the game offers, even when I’m only walking with God. My personal experience is that conscious and profound gratitude has been good for my game. I hope you can find the mindset that brings the joy back for you too.

Are you one of those people that just goes and plays and never practices? I’m not knocking it, some of the best pressure players I know are like that. Bubba Watson is like that. As your non-sanctioned remote gold star golf coach, I suggest you practice putting - a lot. If you can still hit the long irons or a solid 4 or 5 wood, no need to move to the senior tees. Do people even use long irons anymore now that they have those “utility” clubs?
