Students often say, “Well, I saw that out of bounds right and hit my ball dead left, and I was scared of the lake on the left and pushed my drive dead right.” I’ll answer by saying, “When you drive down the highway at 65-70 mph, do you look at the guardrail or do you look at the road? Make a mistake on the road and you die, make a mistake on the golf course, you may at worst lose a shot or a ball.” Keep your emotions in perspective and play golf without fear.
