How to qualify for a big golf tournament?
I am trying to qualify for a huge golf tournament over the weekend, or at least it is big too me. I have practiced and my game is good but i just need help controlling the mental aspect. If i have a bad hole, how to put it behind me etc. Any help would be appreciated!!
its just something that you get over over time. two years ago i can remember slamming clubs after a bad hole and just last year my driver finally broke from the abuse. this year though ive learned to just let it go and not worry about a bad hole. one because theres still a lot of golf to be played in the round and you can make up for the bad hole and, two because theres really nothing on the line unless youre maybe trying out for something. there is no money in youth golf. just enjoy the game
self-confidence is what you need.

The key is playing one shot at a time. When that shot is over forget about it and move to the next. Focus on the present shot at hand. Do not count strokes or keep track of how you are doing. Focus on the shot at hand. Mind you this is easier said than done.

The only shot to think of is the one you are about to hit. What club to use ? What distance to carry ? Best approach to the green ? Now hit the ball.

Same procedure for every shot and every putt. Have fun !
