Used to play for (not much) money with a group of mates years ago. Winner of the 18 gets money, but we’d also do a prize for best score over the “final five”, holes 14-18. We did it so you’d still have something to play for even if you’d had a stinker, but it was also a really good way to maintain focus. I still challenge myself on a Final Five score, even if I’m in my own. Find it very helpful.

Brilliant use of systems over goals. Last month I broke 80 for the first time. I double bogeyed 3 of the last 4 holes to finish 79. Been on a golf hiatus since, partly to savor the 79 and partly due to our heat. Will be adopting a rule rule set such as this one soon.

Matt, used this today. I was even par going into 15-17 the trouble holes on my course. Thought about this Video and hit away from water on 15. On par 3 16 took the club I had confidence in and played away from water and short of green. Missed green but in great spot to get up/down. Just missed birdie putt from off green.

The most important thing in lowering your handicap is eliminating any score worse than a bogey. A huge part of that is simply course management and learning how to position your tee shots to the largest zone that gives you a margin of error and then your approach shots to a place where you NEVER short side yourself. Then it's all short game. 80% of your practice should be short game.

I love how you have been brushing up on Scott Adams - reframing your brain, and systems over goals. This summer, I was recovering from a back injury and found that swinging the club much more softly led to my shots going right down the middle. It is something I hope I can retain as a regain strength. I found that repeated 150s right down the middle let me break 100 fairly easily, as I had zero sand, water or Outabounds shots!

As far as maintaining focus throughout the round, part of my 'system' is to break the 18 holes into 3 six hole games. People think about the front and back 9, but that's too many and just a function of the way courses are designed. People who are really struggling could even think about breaking the course into 6 games of three holes each.

I can completely verify putting a line on the ball for putting works. I'm doing it this season and my putting average has dropped 3putts per round. Btw, you once told me that if I was shooting 85-87 most of the time I was probably a 10 handicap; registered this season for official handicap and it's 11 so that was a good guess.
