Why do you care what my goals are? I may not be able to accomplish them by years end but I have seen improvement in my game and I know that I’m close to making much larger improvements.

Self teaching yourself to reshape your swing is stupid. Chances are higher you’re going to frick it up and develop a big hole in your swing. You should probably go see a swing coach. But wait! You’re a 16 handicap you don’t need a coach because you’re such a superior golfer than I am!

I think we should all set lofty goals. And work toward them.

I sort of like the goal of “play each shot independently.”

If we make that 5 footer for bogey, it saves a shot just like a 12 foot birdie putt.
Getting up and down for double saves a shot.

It is always nice to make a 12 foot birdie or a nice two putt par from 30 feet, but we need to focus on executing even when the reward might be a bogey or even a double.

I sometimes lose the shot by shot focus and instead of “saving” bogey, I don’t plan and execute and can end up with an unnecessary double.

Today, my long game was abysmal. I played 9. I hit 1 fairway and no greens, but my short game salvaged a 42. It could have been 50 the way I was swinging. I did a good job of trying on every shot. Chipped in once. Pitched to a foot once. Not my best round ever, but I was pleased with not giving up.
