I'm going to try this. I had 5 3 putts on the front nine of my last round which led to 3 triples and 2 doubles. I settled down on the back nine and recorded no 3 putts. I could have dropped at least 5 strokes if I hadn't had those 3 putts. Thanks for the advice. Have a good one. Great post. I’m going to try this.

I am not sure if it's the intimidation? The beer cart girl? or what? So much of the game is mental and one must keep the head clear.

At one time, I would grab my sand wedge from inside twenty yards without thinking about it. I have learned to play the shot that will give me the best chance of scoring. Chip with a 7 or even a 5 iron. I've been known to putt from 30 yards off the green if it would give me a better chance. I have learned the hard way over the years that this concept is true.
