Your Demeanour on the Golf course

Posted by: user83555 [FORUM MODERATOR] | Tue 27th Oct 2009 22:51 | Last Reply

The last time I attempted to blog this 'subject' I got bombed out and maybe just as well since it was after a return from my local l (no different now as it happens ) but lets now keep it short . My best rounds have been because I had this "Demeanour starting off , not to be confused with "mindset" which could be a preconcieved state "Demeanour" is moreso a state of 'being in the zone' for whatever reason certainly not pre-concieved ! ..... and when that happens I play my best golf and all the rest are also rans !

Anybody agree or do you have some other comments to make on this subject ?

Colin, I don't turn up at the course thinking I'm going to have a good round, or even wake up and think to myself, today's the day to play.

My first hole is my deciding factor, if I play it well and I am swinging smoothly then I will think today's the day.  If I feel stiff or the ball goes all over the place then it's not.

Russell M

do you therefore find that your 'initial good performance' sets you up nicely for the rest of your round - I think I am exactly like you , yes it's my day and you feed of that bigtime !

mind you in saying that I've murdered the course over the front nine and the wheels come off over the returning nine !

Colin, so true....

If I par the first hole and do it quite easy then I'm thinking it's my day.

On the other hand if I take a triple then I'm thinking I might as well walk in now, never do, but that's what I'm thinking!
