    Loved it. Just played yesterday after watching this and a few other videos. Shot 84 - usually high 90s. One hole was under construction so I gave myself a bogie based on average play. Left 3 birdies within 6? feet with misses of a couple inches. Like you've said , I went to my comfort zone and for me hit irons only. Driver/woods give me 2x, 3x bogies so ditched em. My 4 iron is as comfortable as my 9 but woods always ruin me. Going irons only, removing hazards with layups was exactly what you said, getting up and down which I didn't. I really feel so empowered now. I chunked two chips, 3 putt twice and only one 2x bogie ...with the birdies I left I know breaking 80 is happening this year. Thanks for reiterating leaving your ego, it was so hard to go irons only and off the first tee I was already being razzed for 'not having the balls' to hit a driver but I LOVED going toe to toe score wise and always being in the fairway. It made golf FUN! and I never got mad at myself, and said the bad chips happen and moved on.

    Man, I needed this. It's nice to be reminded that it happens to everyone. Been practising a ton, but went from striping the ball and having the most confidence I've ever had, to suddenly 'skanking' like I've never played. Happened out of nowhere. In fact, I birdie the first hole -- using all the tips I've learned from @GolfSidekick :) -- and then just BAM! 2nd hole on onward was a disaster. Will get it back sooner than later though with this confidence booster!

      Just had a trip out to Cali for a couple rounds in Palm Springs and to play Torrey. Shot 80 at Indian canyons and 90 at Torrey with a +6 on the front. Wind got crazy on the back and went +12. I just try to find one swing I can consistently rely on that I can know where my misses are, aim accordingly and most importantly commit to your line and swing. I think it’s the same principle I have to relearn every year. Swing your swing and commit. Cheers and good luck out there 👍

    I looked up Red Tiger and found two versions on Amazon Red Tiger store for $94 and $99 US. Better than my Caddy Tek from Costco at $120 that I thought was a pretty good deal. I am on the bus line of struggles lately so this video will help. Plus, I think 'beating a broken record' is pretty good for most of us to get the point across on how to get out of a terrible mindset and salvage a round going badly and also gain some knowledge through the struggles.
