well, maybe it's you are not used to your new irons?

I haven start using it... i am still using the old set.
R7 5-S, 3H 18degree, cobra amp driver r shaft. My problem for my iron i keep let go my right hand forget to roll over.. as a result my ball always go to the right direction. As for Driver and wood, my swing always come down from top, lead to dug in front and slice... i am trying to make it a habit for right arm to use more strengh...too bad, i am left handed... right hand seem not working as smooth as left hand... lol

that is golf bro. dont think about your scores too much. u will play with less pressure if you dont think of your scores.

Well u are not the 1st one i know who do this...btw u normally go which range??? for me it's normally OCC, like the auto loader for driver. Also the ground flr transview sales, Alex, very good player as well.

This is what I like about the forum - when I started shanking badly, many jumped in with words of advice. And here, the bros did it again. Cheers and may all of you be blessed with a birdie or two this week.

Very true.

Play with this mentality:

1) "I can get this in 3"
2) "I am going to play xx for this 9"
3) "If I can play another xx for this 9, I am going to break 100"

And you can be assured that:

1) You will get there in 4
2) You won't play xx score for this 9
3) You won't break 100 that day

No doubt competition and self-criticism is good to motivate oneself towards excellence (as what we had been taught and taught since young), criticism and low scores rarely worked hand-in-hand on the course. We all think we can take pressure at work and at home. But with golf, the pressure is yourself (which may be greater than the sum of all pressures added together) and this may impact upon your performance.

Like what my instructor had said - Self praise yourself for a good shot, laugh off at the bad shots and count it all shot-by-shot instead of point-by-point. And you will find your scores tumbling.

Just finish a game at marina. Sweet, got 4 par. But 2 double par...the rest are double bogey or bogey... total 107 for the whole game. Hit some bro advice, 1 hit at a time, keep it simple... manage to bring the score down a bit

Bro enwee, Lol... do your friend face the same problem like me?? I normally play range at marina, seletar or green fairway. Mainly depend on the timing where i am working at. Most of the time i join my friends play at green fairway driving range after work.

Well I not so sure, because when I know him in the old TP range. He was playing either high single d or low 10s hcp score. He does drive very consistently straight and far. Btw on PGA, if I'm not wrong Mike Weir is the reverse of you, because when he was in ice hockey he played left side of the court.

Seletar? Their balls quite ex I heard also last time i went there, no place to buy balls.

Seletar very hard buy ball??? No leh just go to the pro shop (open till 8pm)and buy new card can already. 6cent for each ball. Mon after 6.30pm you are allow to hit from the grass infront of the driving range. One drawback is they don have the distance board. They use the flag to indicate. Got putting green also. Bunker for you to hit from there to green too..best is got water cooler.. ppl like me always drink a lot of water is a plus pts. Save money to buy isotonic. Drink too much, my score sure become like the brand or my ball got into water...

Oh open until 8 only? No wonder, I went there last wk around 830 saw everything closed so only used the putting green only since last sun need to putt well in horrible hills. Still forget something, last wk hh was setting up for iskandar Johor open the roughs are absolutely horrible nevertheless good experience.
