Like Pete, I played a lot as a junior although never made it to single figures. I found that two issues came into play : physical fatigue around the 14th, and just plain concentration. Simply concentrating on what you were to do for every shot (external factors aside - lie, distance to pin, wind, etc) was beyond me.
I absolutely love battering the ball with a three iron off the tee.
Concentration is probably the thing that destroys my game more than anything. I was playing in the club B championship a few weeks back and for the first few holes my mind was everywhere but my shots. Found myself standing over the ball and my mind was wandering thinking about really stupid stuff. 4 down after 4 with two sixes and a fucking eight and never recovered :facepalm:
Went up the next night and was level par after 7 holes....twat of a game[emoji1]
