Mental Mondays: Aim High

February 13, 2012

When faced with a long carry over a hazard, stop focusing on the ground, and instead pick a target line using a point well above the fairway such as a distant tree, or the top of the visible flagstick. This takes the hazard out of your line of vision, forcing you to think of something other than the water (or brush). Thinking about the hazard—even thinking you’ve got to get over it—makes it much more likely that you’ll lose a ball.
