Third one right mate,

Never decide what your doing until you get there, same never curse a bad shot, how many times have you done that then get there with a great lie and line and find the green easy............................if you loose your composure after a shot chances are the next one has had it.

Back to the bunker, play what ever shot you want but make that decision when you get there and see to lie etc, also stand outside the bunker and have a few practice swings to convince yourself of the plan, then when in the bunker have a few rehearsals too, then flick the switch and go.

How many tour player do you see messing about of what appears to be a simple chip, you must get yourself ready to play, bear in mind we all mess up and it not the end of the world, certainly not in your case take the luck and plough on.

Hope this helps

Ian.

Also I have never achieved a round in under 3.5 hours...........although some of the speed merchants at my club can't wait to get back in the clubhouse.........but that for another thread.
