Good thread and I'm a bit like you Slats.

I have trouble staying focused. I tend to agree with Ian's comments. Gary has good points in relation to relaxation. I'll give it a go.

Slats, I'm working hard between shots not to think about my game at hand. I'll walk around, talk to my partners, look at the flora and fauna and so on. It's when I walk to my ball that I take note of the wind, lie, location of flag and so on. Then I'm into my pre shot routine and pull the trigger.

If I stick to my game plan and not worry about the score, I've found at the end of the round I scored well.

p.s Ian, I can't sip my water - I buy more at the turn. Bit like my beer.
