Re: calling vp27519 ....

Having read this article, I can relate to the part of it where he talks about the self concious wanting to help, where you say I'm not going to go left into the rough and then promptly do so, because you are concious of it. At least 4 times on Saturday I had given myself putts of less than 10ft and was dreading taking them, knowing I would miss. And, of course, subsequently doing just that.

For me, my fear of putting is a self fulfilling prophecy on far too many holes.

I wonder if mental imagery can alter this.

There seems to be a theory out there where if you can picture yourself doing something with confidence, then if and when you actually do come to do this thing, you have a positive image to draw on.

I wonder......

Thoughts anyone...???
