1. How are you supposed to remain confident, play without hesitancy, when your swing that day sends the ball in every direction except backwards.
It's such a vicious cycle too. After the first 2 or 3 holes of bad shots, fear sets in. And it's because of that fear I can't swing as freely, which causes balls to become even more erratic. I tell myself,"swing freely, confidently," but deep inside, I can still feel that fear.
It's completely opposite for the short game. I feel so much better around the greens when all I need to focus on is my target. Helped me save a number of bogeys today. What do you guys do when your swing isn't the best it can be that day?
2. What is tempo, and rhythm. I know there are fast tempo's and slow tempo's. I've read about how els's tempo is slow, tom watson's was fast. But I don't really get it. I don't even think I know what good tempo and rhythm should feel like compared to bad tempo.
