"Practice hard at your strengths, just practice harder at your weaknesses." Either that or "Hit the f##king ball!"

My personal favorite is:

Je sais que je vais gagner,
Tu sais que je vais gagner,
Je sais que tu sais que je vais ganger.

This sounds eerily familiar, almost as if it was in my sig for awhile:D



Sidewinder, it actually is translated from "focused aggressive tempo".

Not like word for word, thats how my french teacher translated it into an actual sentence. I figured it out to be something like that, but i asked my teacher and she gave me that.

For iron play, my motto is: "Hit the wall...........pick the ball". I try to keep everything simple............and hitting the wall with my left side does that. Some guys are diggers, and some guys are pickers (like myself):)

A). My main motto when things aren't going to well on the course is 'just play golf' this helps me to keep it simple.

B). When I've dropped 6 shots in the 1st 4 holes in my Saturday comp My motto is 'theirs always next week'.

C). When my ball goes in the lake it's 'drown you little f*cker'!!!

VT, are you guys using an internet translator? The reason why i said to sidewinder is because thats exactly what im guessing he did. Tempo does not have a single word changed to in french, if you did it word for word, focus and tempo would have to be in latin, focaliser isnt the correct meaning of the word in this sense.

Not like it really matters, just a fun stupid thing to argue about:). My teacher put it like this to put it into an actual sentence (in real french, no quebec franglais stuff).
