Anyone have any suggestions for controlling nerves in the following scenarios:
1. You bogie or worse and you're upset. Next hole you hit a tree, how do you get control and regroup? Typically when I bogie, I bogie or double bogie the next hole too and then the whole round falls apart. you go from even par to a plus three. Then you start over reaching to try and get birdies. When you should lay up, you go for the monster drive and hit the tree or long putt and you roll down the hill.
2. Big backup on a hole and your driving in front of 20-30 people. Sometimes I grip to hard and release late. How do you calm yourself?
3. How do you avoid psyching yourself out of that 15-20' that you know you could make with your eyes closed, but this one is for the round?
