As a higher handicapper than most on here, you guys may not run into this as much as I do, but here it goes...
Being here in the Mid-Atlantic, it has been very wet, and most of the courses I have played the rough has been a SOB to get out of. Played a course on Monday and had two balls trickle through the fairway and one we couldn't find, and the other when we did, I wished we hadn't! Basically, it's just hand to hand combat. The problem for me is, after battling out of that for a while, it just seems to really destroy any tempo I have for the rest of the round, and I know I am swinging harder that I need to, and I tend to start chunking shots. Seems it is harder to stop this than it should be!
Do you guys ever experience this, and if so, any ideas on how to fight it?
