Can't be too bad though as I finished no. 1. So the quarters are this Friday.

An interesting point about the butterflies in my tummy - a mate of mine (a very good golfer) said that this was good, ie, I was ready and alert. An interesting and soothing sort of a way at looking at it.
Hi Nicole,

IMHO nervousness does not help your game, positive thoughts and getting things in perspective does.

I read this book recently and would strongly recommend it for creating a good mental attitude to the way you practice and play.
