Make The Basic Shot-making Decision Early, Clearly

First And Fore-most, You Must Have Confidence. Your Second Mental Problem Is Concentration. Think The Shot Through In Advance Before You Address The Ball. Draw A Mental Image Of Where You Want It To Go And Then Eliminate Everything Else From Your Mind, Except How You Are Going To Get The Ball Into That Preferred Spot.

Never Let Up. The More You Can Win By, The More Doubts You Put In The Other Players' Minds The Next Time Out.

I'd Say That Golf Is About 75% Mental. If Your State Of Mind Gets Out Of Kilter, You're Worse Off Than A Tomcat Floating On A Log.

Most People Who Play Golf Have One Big Trouble: They Think Too Much. To Get Any Real Mileage Out Of This Game You've Got To Sit On Your Imagination.

There Is An Old Saying: If A Man Comes Home With Sand In His Cuffs And Cockleburs In His Pants, Don't Ask Him What He Shot.
