Important philosphical question

Postby rwoodworkr on Mon Oct 04, 2021 2:30 pm

Before I visit my sports psychologist I'll ask the crowd:

When I misread a putt, then mishit it and it goes in, should I be happy that it went in, or upset that I misread it and mishit it?

That's deep, Rick! :lol:
If you mishit a drive and it hits a tree but then bounces back in the fairway , are you happy? It's all about results. :lol:
No matter where you go, there you are!

I actually go both ways. After the mishit, I throw the mouse against the wall. Then after the ball drops in the hole, I'm happy, because I get a new mouse. :D

I like MasterMontgomery's response. Something else I tend to do, is to convince myself that I missed the snap on purpose because I realized during the swing that I had probably aimed a bit too far to the left or right :D Sometimes it is actually true, doesnt hurt to apply it a few times extra here and there :wink:

Heh, yes, I do the same thing. I've also found that twisting my body and yelling "TURN!" at the top of my lungs has a huge influence on the ball.

NO! You should immediately turn yourself in and ask for a straightjacket.

Now that this has been settled :) .. which makes you feel worse, misread+snap miss or good read+missnap miss? Asking for a friend.
