This rollercoaster continues...

[SPmoser87]

Sometimes, I hit it so good for so long, and then wake up one day and it's gone (or at least feels like it). I had the best ballstriking months of my golfing career from Nov 11 through early March this year. That wonderful display has been followed up with an awful two-way miss (really hate right to further right), too many mediocre rounds, and too much pressure on my putter. I figure I have two options:

1: Try and dig it out and practice more, take a lesson or something.
2: Hang it up for a couple weeks, go fishing, and hope that peace of mind carries back onto the course.

Opinions?

Do 1 and 2 at the same time, and throw in deep tissue massage and an Onsen bath.

Evaluate your diet.

Are you saying coffee and ramen isn't a good dietary combo? It's all I can afford, lol. A deep tissue massage wouldn't suck though.

I just need to spend more time on course and less in the proshop.

Atta way!

Play your ass off!

I guess it all depends on how confident you are on the ability to fix yourself. If you know your swing well and know what's causing your 2 way miss than I'd go catch a big Largemouth and then hit the range. If you don't I wouldn't beat balls like crazy cuz that will just make things worse, probably best to take a lesson.

Either way, good luck. 8/10 guys I know share the same rollercoaster ride. Some days it feels like a great summer night with a gorgeous looking girl by your side and sometimes it feels like a hot humid morning jammed in right next to a big guy that has pizza vomit all over him.

Usually for me when I start feeling tired and sloppy it almost always is a problem with balance. I start lunging and moving all over the place. I just really need to feel like the pivot slows down and the hands and arms catch up right in front of me. For what its worth anyway.

I know my swing fairly well. Just in one of those ruts I guess. I haven't had a lesson in about a year and taking one probably wouldn't hurt. The other part, about the big guy with pizza vomit... I hope bad golf didn't lead to that for you

I hear you. That would be a good thing to check. Thanks.

I'm talking rollercoaster rides here just so you know. I think I know where your mind went however and NO my game isn't that bad yet. (not that there's anything wrong with that - Jerry Seinfeld)

Thanks for clarifying. Still funny either way.

It is always going to be a roller coaster ride. Thing is we have to make the lows less low and the highs less high​.

I remember Nicklaus saying that as soon as he got excited during a round his game was gone.

Golf is the best E Ticket ride in sports.

This is the comment that got this thread slightly off track... haha.
