Most players fixate on how much bad luck they have on the golf course. They might look back on their round and they say, oh, well, I should have made that putt, or I should have made that shot, or if I hadn't done that thing. But what they don't often do is think about how many times they got good luck, they had good breaks on their shot, shots came out better than they expected. Reality is we're going to get good luck and bad luck on the golf course. But if you want to take your game to the next level, you need to figure out what is your just kind of mediocre shots. If you can have mastery over your mediocre middle shots. That's going to have the biggest impact on your ability to score consistently day to day.
