Shankster Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Today I went out to redeem myself after playing like garbage with the Bro Dudes the other day…. The first 6 holes I played a complete game, best golf I have ever played from tee to green. Very tidy, and professional like. It was the most fun I’ve had in a long time on the course. I tried using the V1x today. The control around the green was amazing, but full shots had way too much spin. 1: Center cut drive, 5 iron to the fringe, chip and 2 putt par. (Should have been a bird). 2: 3 iron to center fairway, 54 to 15 feet, 2 putt par. 3: 9 iron, 2 putt par. 4: 2 hybrid to left rough, 48° to 12’, 2 putt par. 5: 3 iron to center fairway, 9 iron, 2 putt par. 6: 8 iron, 2 putt par. 7: ….. bogey (into wind) 8: Bogey (wind) 9: Bogey (wind) Back 9 was more of the bogey golf. Some pars, and a record drive on 15. I need to channel those first few holes and stay with it. The bogey’s started coming when I changed my strategy, and a chunked chip on 7. edingc, Micah T, sirchunksalot and 2 others 5 Quote Driver: Callway Rogue St Triple Diamond 9* 2 HY: Mizuno STZ 230 16* (set to 13.75) 2 Iron: Taylormade UDI 17* Irons: 2019 Titleist T100S 3-PW Wedges: Vokey SM6 54* and SM9 48* / Taylormade MG3 TW 56* Putter: PING Anser Ball: Pro V1 Bag: Jones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RollingGreens Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Great execution out of the box. No doubles are huge. Plus it seems like you played penalty free golf.

What was the change in your strategy? Seems like you hit 5 greens in a row, and nearly got on a par 5 in 2. Fairways, greens, and 2 putts is a great strategy but not all that realistic. Your going to hit bad shots and miss targets and scores will waver, but how did you deviate from the plan?

There was an interesting "Sweet Spot" podcast with Kent Osborne who is a mental coach. He talked about 2 main personality types (player vs performer) and how some people should focus on routine/target/process and plan shot by shot. While others are better off focusing on a target score, beating an opponent etc. What was the strategy change?
