When I was younger I used to stand on a fairway, (or semi or jungle) look at the flag or a target and know it was a 7 iron or whatever.
I was usually pretty dam accurate with my distance control and clubbing.
Fast forward a good number of years of reliance on a GPS or a laser and suddenly I'm lost if I forget my device(s) or run out of charge/battery. Not only have I lost that ability I once had it's clear that I'm now not taking the same amount of care or taking in my surroundings like I did before the GPS revolution. Previously I'd know I was a 5 iron from a certain tree or from the back of a bunker etc. Im absolutely lost now. It really is clear that I'm not even paying attention to that, I just whip out the laser or a quick glance at the GPS and hit.
Who else has experienced this? Just me?
