I remember during the heavy rains in the Atlanta area a couple of months back you declared that it was the first time in a year (I think you said year) that you hadn't hit balls. I have made it my goal to get to scratch this year. I am no stranger to shooting sub par and am comfortable doing so. When I read your post and putting it alongside a book I read about a guy from right here in N Ireland going from not being able to break 100 to shooting a below par round in one calendar year (Its called Dream On and is an insprirational read), I realised that at best hitting a couple of hundred balls per week (on a week when I was practicing hard!) I was only scraping the surface of what I was capable of. I wonder whether you would mind outlaying your normal practice session. For the other top players and pros on here, especially YODA if he doesn't mind, what do you and your players do if after ten minutes on the range, everything seems perfect? I have had it happen where after 10 or 20 balls I am 100% happy. Should I throw the balls out on the range - not likely, I bloody well paid for them! What should I do? That turned into a longer post than I originally planned! Look forward to hearing the responses. __________________ The student senses his teacher’s steadfast belief and quiet resolve: “This is doable. It is doable by you. The pathway is there.
