Putt Freely
Posted on January 31, 2012 by Grant in Golf Fundamentals, Putting, The Mental Game.I want to have an easy-going attitude when I putt, and a calm, calculated reaction even if the putt doesn’t go in.

Playing the Mental Game
Posted on December 16, 2011 by Grant in Golf Fundamentals, The Mental Game.How do you approach a round of golf? Does your attitude after the round is over depend on on how you scored?
