As you can see I am behind schedule.

They are mostly scoring goals I know and maybe that creates too much expectation. Interested to learn what others think

I like this! Go get 'em big fella . . . Big Hairy Audacious Goals . . .

Bucket's . . .

1. Have fun.
2. Don't think too much.
3. Commit to every shot and then swing taking solid contact as a given.
4. Short putting is about FACE FACE FACE . . . control the dang FACE.
5. Got this 'un from my stromie HennyBogan . . . On tough shots say "This shot already has you beat anyhow . . . so JUST BEAT ON IT LIKE IT STOLD SOMETHING."
6. Don't go to the golf course thinking I have to do "this" inorder for the round to be considered a success.
7. Don't give up on no rounds.
8. Figure out a go-to tee shot when you are blowing chunks.
9. Play more golf.
10. Have fun.
