All about confidence - I will make this putt. Had a bunch of one-putts for u/d but only one birdie. My swing thought might have carried over a bit too: all day, for full swings, chips, and putts, I was thinking 'tempo', being smooth and relaxed. I could get used to this.

However, I just can't shake the idea that it's best to have very low expectations: "I will miss this putt, it's too difficult". Then you are never disappointed!
Bingo---confidence and high expectations = fewer putts/round

make em all--visual them on the way and going down--works for me.
