If anyone remembers, about a year and a half ago, I suggested a golfing mental philosophy based on my approach to the game to play to my strengths, which I amended to help someone break 100.

OK to my question, is anyone from this forum still playing a golfing mental philosophy or approach they have picked up on here? If you did start following one but don't now, why did you stop?

I am curious to know as I suggested an approach to how to think about the game and I know others have discussed things. Even if its a small mental nugget someone mentioned on here.

This is not of course about swing and mechanics or schools of that ilk!
 
Hit it, find it, hit it again works best for me!

Aim to score the smallest number on any hole, then forget that hole/score and move on to the next hole.

I actually used your method, having played with a few old boys when I started out who always told me to "take my medicine" when in trouble. Can honestly say I still keep it in mind now, but whilst I consistently break 100. I find myself having to sometimes snap out of it, especially on oar 5's if looking to break 90 which I've still done only a handful of times.

My mental approach is often refreshed or adjusted after reading something on here. I was off here for a long time and ploughed my own furrow for a while. I'm not sure any mental approach will fix my swing..and my results... so for the time being, I have gone back to lessons/practice.
