Jim Shaw Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 18 minutes ago, chisag said: ... Tiger said when he wasn't nervous/anxious on the first tee he would stop competing. Over simplified it just means you still care. I remember my first time auditioning for a major motion picture and I was so nervous I am not sure I remembered to breathe. I never experienced anything like that playing QB at any level. But the more I auditioned the better I got at managing my nerves. They never go away of course because it can mean so much but they stopped derailing my chances of being cast (shooting an 80 between a 68 and 67) after about the 5th time. ... So now I enjoy the "rush" and think the Eagles said it so well in Desperado "Your losing all the highs and lows ain't it funny how the feeling goes away". Give me anxiety over comfortable every time. thanks for that @chisag...

Eagles quote " I don't know why Fortune smiles on some and let's the rest go free". Play the Game. Isn't that the truth, trying to figure out "why fortune smiles on some" I think goes back to genetics, some athletes are born with the ability to thrive under those anxious times, in my opinion these are the elite. No secret sauce just that athlete. I sat at the Provincial hall of fame dinner this past December and the male inductees were well deserving of the award however not even close to the resume of the National hall of famer in the crowd. So what made him the best, what was his superpower? I have asked many great players that went head to head with him and the answer mostly was "he was a fierce competitor" "and a real gentleman" Something like Jack Nicklaus I suppose. sirchunksalot, Rob Person, Javs and 2 others 5 Quote committed to performance excellence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post berkeleybob Posted January 6 Popular Post Share Posted January 6 Morn all! A huge storm came through out here this past week. Northern half of the country got covered in snow while the southern half was hit with a flooding rain. Temps below 20°F and will likely stay that way into next week. I hope we don’t experience any power outages as a result, but if so, at least we’ve got solar panels on the roof— uh, oh … On the bright side, I just signed up at the local indoor golf driving range.

Popular Post ParFore74x Posted January 6 Popular Post Share Posted January 6 Happy Saturday morning spies! Slept in for three hours this morning, that felt great. Light dusting of that white stuff on the ground outside, not so great. Might just be a little tease of what MIGHT arrive next week. I’m crossing my fingers that the potential snow misses us next week because, quite frankly, I just don’t want to move it off the driveway. Anyways, scheduled to meet my father in law for lunch today at HuHot. Have not eaten there for several years so I’m not really sure what I’ll even get. Almost like going to a new restaurant again.

Popular Post Kenny B Posted January 6 Popular Post Share Posted January 6 Good Morning everyone...... and I do mean Goooood Morning!!! I much appreciate all the well-wishes from all of you and it was nice to spend last night in my own bed. Finally, a night with dreams; don't get those with alarms and hospital staff waking you up every hour. I have never had any heart issues, except taking a med for hypertension. Doc visits for the past several years said my heart sounded fine. The heart doc at the hospital said I had 3 arteries nearly 100% blocked. He opened one up with two stents and I have to go back in 2 weeks for the other two, but they will be done as outpatient procedure. I have been trying to get my wife to see a heart doc for a year (her family has heart issues; mine don't) and she finally made an appointment back in October for Jan 30. Well, she got to meet him early yesterday!! Same doc!! She spent yesterday between my room and the waiting room where her girlfriend was waiting for her husband to get out of open heart surgery. Love that woman!! Today will be nearly 50º but windy and we have a 9:40 tee time. I can't play until after the second procedure but the doc said I could walk the course. It will be nice to get outside. Thank you all again and especially @cksurfdude for texting me about the 2024 MGS Outing... my wife and I are going!!

GolfSpy_APH you have the prefect Saturday project! It taxes your mind just enough to keep your cognitive resources fully engaged for several hours, and in my opinion is just plain fun. My project for the day is to build and fit a basket between the front seat and the rear facing seat of my Evolution golf cart .

I went over to play Bandon Dunes one January day a few years ago. A bitter wind howling off of the Pacific and spitting a little rain greeted us as we drove into the parking lot, we teed off anyway after putting rain gear on. By the third hole a full on Pacific Northwest winter storm rolled onto the course. Horizontal rain and at times big fat wet snowflakes but we soldiered on and worked our way through all 18 holes. I cannot say much about the course other than the greens seemed huge and most of the time had rivers of water running somewhere through them. I have never been so happy to walk off an 18th green in my life as I was that day. Took me two days to get warmed up. We had to take half hour shifts driving the 4 hours back to the Bend area in central Oregon. Everyone was so worn out from the thrashing the weather gave us no one deemed it safe to drive much longer than that. Oh yeah the topper on a truly miserable day was Santiam Pass, our route through the Cascades, and a windy mountain two lane highway was covered with 6 inches of fresh snow and getting deeper all the time. I never went back....
