Re: Why does the swing fall apart?

Tom Watson was on the Golf Channels "Lessons from the Pros" and he put it this way. "Find something else to blame it on." He said he was playing a practice with Phil Mickelson I believe. Anyway, Phil completely shanked a shot into the trees and then turned around and said "My club hit a rock this big(3 inch) behind my ball. When Tom looked at the area Phils ball had been, there was no rock. He said Phil was blaming a bad shot on something else to take the blame in his head off of himself. According to Tom, a lot of players do that. It takes care of your subconcious beating up on you the rest of the round. Try it, it might work. Like Watson said, "A good golfer never blames himself."
