After a bad start really got going. At the end of the round had a score +3 after going to +6 at one point.
Mentally kept strong and didn't let misfortune and lack of concentration get on top of my and make things worse.
Getting a good start to the round!
Mental and round preparation
That thing I read about "if you are eating your brain doesn't think you are in danger so doesn't trigger the fight-or-flight response" is working so I now chew gum during the game. Annoying as biting the inside of my lip is I'll put up with that!
For this format it's a 3 person team and have to nominate the order of play who has the 'Yellow' ball. The person nominated as the yellow ball scores double for that hole. the nomination continues in the same order for the round. Off 85% handicap.
Another good day playing, relaxed, enjoying the company, scored well.
Maintaining the mental approach and pre-shot routine. A few times didn't pick the right club and didn't get the result wanted, managed to rescue the hole.
Just keep doing what are doing, it's working.. Remember this and maintain the confidence that this approach works.
Everything, mental approach was good, even after a couple of poor shots, didn't let it get into my head just reset and tried again.
Picked the right club, the right line and took time to hit the shot.
Maintaining the mental approach and pre-shot routine. Had a couple of instances where lost the focus.
Just keep doing what are doing, it's working.. Remember this and maintain the confidence that this approach works.
Just about everything went well, my own scoring I ended up level (36 points) with 2 non-scoring holes.. so without the mistakes could have been 4 under!!!
The mental approach I've adopted is really working, picking the small target on the horizon and focusing on that before the shot. Chewing gum while playing is also working, I read that if the brain thinks you are eating, then it remains calmer, this does seem to work, except I keep biting inside of my lip!
Choosing the right shot and club, I failed on this a couple of times and scored tripples!
Keep progressing with the mental game and don't be afraid of a bit of risk with the shot being chosen.
