Dont worry about losing the swing. You will lose it But it will come back too. Had a spur of the moment round today with a young kid I know who is pretty decent. Talked him into putting a little (very little lol) $$ on the round. Wasnt worried about making the $ or losing it, just wanted added pressure. Had a good round going thru the first 8 holes (was on my way to a 41 even with two penalty strokes) til I lost it on number 9. took a 9!! a 9 on a par 5. arrgghhh! Started worrying and it took its toll. All mental mistakes. Either I was worried I would slice off the box and then did, and if I didn't slice then thought I had it made and lost focus. Shot crap on the back nine.
On the positive side, I think (hope? pray? ) I see the error of my ways and just need to keep the positive attitude in tomorrows round.

I CAN get in the groove, I have been in the groove and WILL do it again, just need to BELIEVE and stay in the groove. Like you, when you have confidence in the chips and putts they are good. just have to get rid of any doubt.

maybe hypnotism?
