I am having trouble with confidence on the course. I hit it good in practice, but when i get on the course i feel like i cannot do so and don't trust my game. Are there any good ways to combat this?

Re: Confidence?
My guess is that when you practice, you are just hitting ball after ball. Approach your practice like you would a round of golf. Grab a scorecard from you home course and play a round of 18 on the range. You know where all the trouble areas are, so pivk a target and then visualize the trees, water, etc. Hit your drive and then your appraoch shot Use the didtance markers on the range to estimate how for your drive went so you know approx how far you need your second shot to go. Once you get used to practicing like this, you will do much better on the course. THe reason is that you are standing in one spot, hitting the same club repeatedly without actually visualizing your shot or having a goal you wish to accomoplish.
Just stepping up and whacking away at a bucket of balls won't improve your game, it will only strengthen your muscles. -

See.
Feel.
Do.
visualize the shot, where you want it to land, where you want it to bend, trajectory, etc.
feel this shot in your practice swing.
pull the trigger.Comment
