My Worst Golf in Years - and the One Swing Thought That Fixed It

Well, who did not have a solid game was me on Saturday.

It was by far my worst round, and it was, it was a mini tournament that we played in, where we had, uh, 12 friends, although I didn't really know that many people.

Um, and I got paired with also a person that I didn't know, and I was the second lowest handicap in the tournament, and the best player was only off by, like, .3 points.

So I really expected to show up, and the way that they set up the teams was the two best players were on opposite sides.

So needless to say, our team lost, and I had a big part in playing that.

But yeah, let's...

We'll, we'll definitely, like, go in a little bit to talk about the prep.

I, like I said, I have a lot of excuses why the tournament didn't go my way, but luckily Roy also played on the opposing team in that same tee time.

Yes.

And so I'm also very curious to hear, uh, what Roy thought.

Should we, should we actually start there? Roy, what was wrong with my round? Um-

Yes.

I, I, I have a few things that I think went wrong.

Um, but I'm gonna ask you a question first before we get into it.

Let's do it.

Do you think that you changed the way that you warmed up for that tournament?

Absolutely, I did.

Um- It actually goes back an entire week before that tournament.

And so there was a little bit of pressure, I think, knowing that I was the second lowest handicap for me to show up.

And so I actually went to the range like twice.

But I was also very conscious of the fact that I didn't want to watch any new swing tips on YouTube or Instagram, so I actually stayed off social media.

Uh, and, and whenever something came up, I didn't watch it.

But yes, my prep was a little bit different.

There was actually one video that someone sent to me, which...

But it had to do more with kind of your routine before each shot.
