    Mind games

    Maybe I should consider to rename myself to „Blubb !“ … ? :unsure: ;)

    Mind games

    Well, let me put it this way: Right now, it’s definitely easier to count the (really) good shots! The bad ones are the norm, and some are just so-so. And no, I don’t “lose my cool” (well, only very rarely… 🙄), but it frustrates me that I can’t see any progress. But I’m having a hard time...

    Unfortunately, that (# 12783) wouldn't surprise me in the least…! :rolleyes:

    Moral dilema

    Well, here in Germany, the so-called “principle of official investigation” applies, which means: If the police become aware of a possible (!) crime, they *must* investigate it due to a legal obligation and, if necessary, take further action. But I’ll admit: Often nothing happens at all, or it...

    Moral dilema

    I don‘t know what the DVLA is, but here in Germany I would just informe the Police and they will take over better and faster than you ever would be able to ! 🤷‍♀️

    I just aim for a score to see any developement. Right now, it seems to be stagnating at a very low level. 😔

    Mind games

    Could have been me … ! 😔 Yes, I know it’s “just” a game. And I’m not playing against my partners on the course, but with them. The person I’m really playing against is myself: In theory, I know exactly how to execute every shot perfectly - and when I can’t put that into practice, I tear...

    Mind games

    Right now, I’m finding it really hard to enjoy the (few) good shots I make. With the rest, I struggle to stay positive and keep my composure. 😔 What goes through your mind when you really mess up a shot? How do you keep it from getting to you? How do you keep those kinds of shots from ruining...

    Golf Random Irritations

    Knowing this, I try to behave appropriately, not to swear and to just keep my mouth shut. :censored: But I'm afraid my facial expression betrays me anyway. 😤 🤷‍♂️ I'm working on it - both my facial expression and (above all !) my attitude ... ! :rolleyes: There is a saying in German: “Golf...

    Golf Random Irritations

    I don't expect every stroke to be perfect, but I would like it to be ! 🤷‍♂️ In theory, I know *exactly* how the “perfect stroke” works, and when it fails (again), I know *exactly* what I did wrong (again), and yet I still can't get it right ! 😞 It's frustrating ! 😤

    Golf Random Irritations

    Thank you ! (y) That's exactly what I needed to be told right now and still need to learn - but I'm working on it ! 😞 At least I don't stop playing, but count my strokes strictly according to the rules. But in fact, the (mostly) bad strokes bring my mood down much more than the (few) good ones...

    I played today and..(Rolling) -originally created by JohnnyDee

    Okay, I know it's been more than 30 years, but does that mean I have to play that badly now? :eek: I only started playing golf again last year, so my handicap is only 54, but I just don't see any progress. :cry: The last round on Wednesday was particularly frustrating: for every decent shot...
