Hello everyone. I live in Ms. obviously, and like most of you on here, live to play golf. When I can control my nerves and driver, I shoot in the mid 80's. Unfortunately when I play in a tournament, I don't do a very good job of controlling either and my scores blow up. I guess that's why I'm making this post at 2:00am, I have my 3rd tournament this morning and can't sleep. Anyway, anyone on here from Ms, drop me a line and we will play a round or 2.

Well, I survived my tournament, and so did all my clubs. It was a little iffy there for a while for the putter though. I controlled my nerves 10 times better this time. Not sure if it was Rotella's book, Golf is not a Game of Perfect, or the fact it was my 3rd tournament, most likely a combination of the 2. To bad I still didn't control my driver, but I did do better with it this time. One of these I'm going to realize I just can't putt with my Scotty and take it back out of the bag and put the McGregor, Fat Lady Swings back in. Maybe then my scores will come down. But I look good missing my putts with that Studio Designs 2.5,

I get so hyped up for tournaments that I feel like there's no gravity. I also feel like my stomach is tying in knots so tight that they're strong enough keep the titanic from sinking...

But the more tourneys I play the more relaxed I get. The last tournament of last year I didn't have any nerves or butterflies on the 1st tee, for the first time ever.

You'll get better and better the more you play in tournaments.

Glad your tourney went well! I don't live near ya, but hello from TEXAS! Good luck getting back into the game.

Thank you Tony and Melissa. I have another one not this weekend but the next. Hopefully I'll do even better in it.
