I BETTER HAVE LOTS OF DOUGH ON ME JUST IN CASE.

Pressure is when you play for five dollars a hole with only two in your pocket.

Practice your short game this week Jim....oh, and don't forget to bring cash.

Try a 48 hour crash course at putt putt.

CONFIDENCE comes from home.
You must dominate the woman before you can dominate the green, im assuming you will always suck

 

[BigOrange+]

You need to scare your putter a little. Drag it behind the golf cart for three or four holes and threaten to hide it in the attic in the dark with the rats and i guarantee it will start performing.

[Big5Sniper]

It's the Putter. It's always the Putter.

Time for a new toy. You are guaranteed to putt well the first week with a new stick.

BTJ:

I know a fellow PGA pro in your area that specializes in short game for the mentally challenged. He could be exactly what you need.

Bad news is that he is a Nigerian with a Mexican wife.

Let me know if you want his contact info.

LAST YEAR I SHOT 76 AND 79 WICH MADE ME FEEL GOOD

Unfortunately for Beaner, the 76 was on the front 9 and the 79 was on the back 9.

 

[woodog22]

practice distance control before you putt, look at the hole and swing back and forth, also use a line on your ball if you're not, when you get over your putt adjust your putter line slightly based on your top down view of the break

Get this book off Amazon. Then use a Magic Marker and change the word People to Putter

Everywhere in the book you see the word People, mark it out and write the word Putter.

Then read the entire book start to finish prior to each round of golfing

Not to derail this Important Topic, but when I was searching for "How To Have Confidence" I came across this link.

Not sure if she was legal age when the photo was taken, but she's legal now in case anyone wants to check out something Outstanding from Chatanooga
