Which is great.

They might miss the ball.

They might hit it all over the place, but man, they're unconscious.

An intermediate performer who has been taking lessons and practicing, is defined as being consciously competent.

So now they're conscious of what they're doing and they're thinking about their golf swing and they're developing competence.

So they're becoming consciously competent, okay? Which is okay on the driving range.

An advanced performer is unconsciously competent, okay? So believe me, if you go back and look at my earlier books, I mean, I've been very honest with people.

Right.

no and so you better be able

to find a way to build confidence even when you're not winning it's interesting you mentioned you had talked to Podrick.

I remember the first time Podrick told me he was going to win a major was after he missed the cut by a shot at Augusta at the Masters.

And he did his interviews.

I was going to meet him on the putting green.

And he walks over and he says, I didn't know how he was going to feel.

And he walks over with a big grin and says, I now know I'm going to win majors.

And so

This is about a minute.

I, I think, you know, play the game.

And the game, I mean, even for the best players in the world, every day it's different.

It's like, you know, everyone thinks they feel the same, it is the same every day, and they don't.

That's for sure.

They just are really good at accepting the game.

You know, I al- I always tell everybody, it's a game of mistakes, and if you love the game of golf, then you love the fact that it's a game of mistakes.

So, I, sometimes it's really hard for us to, to, to just ac- to do that acceptance.
