jag är helt med på vad du säger filip. men tänk dig att juniorerna då blir att ha sina föräldrar som caddy. de ska vara med och agera i klubbval hur de ska spela m.m. jag tycker det är helt rätt att juniorerna inte ska få ha caddy pga. att de ska få fatta sina egna beslut och få spela sin egen golf.

This area of the game is something that until I cahnged held me back immensely as a golfer. After I realized that my best shots were only deemed to be acceptable versus a mis-hit 7-iron to 20ft of the pin being completely unacceptable in my mind I realized there was no sense in the theory. Many golfers get into a habit of this at a young age because think it may be a sign of weakness (or not cool) to be ok with a bad shot and to be a man you should shout and curse and snap your club in disgust when you don’t hit the exact shot you tried to. To a degree you must hold your own standards of what is acceptable for your abilities and what is not, but its the realization of that which requires some one to take the chip off their shoulder and swallow their pride. The exercises we did in practice to help me freed my mind up from the stress and pressure that you can put on yourself with every shot: This has to be struck out the middle of the club face, with 2 yards of draw, starting on the tree limb in the distance and finish inside 10ft of the pin for it to be successful you can’t play golf that way and its certainly not enjoyable that way. I like your point on the athleticism of a golfers mind and once it is accessed and the player can begin to trust their athletic mind to react accordingly, rather than having 10 swing thoughts something great may happen. I think even Tiger could benefit from this article. He’s arguably the greatest player the game has seen, however his body language and attitude is terrible on the course and in media interviews which has made him an annoyance. As a result he has lost a great deal of his fan base. He’s famous for his fist pumps and big celebrations although people forget how miserable he is in between these moments of triumph when he hits it to within a foot of the pin and doesn’t bat an eye. He’s inspired millions of people into playing the game and having the highest aspirations of themselves; although in my mind, he has taught this next generation of players to be unsatisfied and ungentlemanly on the course with extreme contrasts in emotion from excited to anger which is an extreme waste of energy. There are a few very obvious reasons why Luke Donald is number 1 in the world and why Tiger is not anymore Keep up the good work Coach!
