Got any golf in lately?

Spent an excellent couple of days watching the Scottish Open at Royal Aberdeen over the weekend.

Love watching the pro's struggle just because they've got to hit a couple of long shots into a bit of wind.

I've decided on the back of watching them that I've been standing too far away from the ball at address and it is causing me to take a wild flail at the ball. Need to get closer to it to stay more compact and controlled through the shot.

How about we add some giant fans to footie stadiums?

Oh man I bet it was a thrill to attend the Open!

It's funny how watching the pros gives you insights into one's own game. It's not a matter of athletic ability, just degrees of skill which is far more fixable and frustrating at the same time :D

I avoid getting too frustrated about swing issues because I've come to accept I can't play to a professional level in terms of technical ability.

What really irritates me is when I make a mental error, because I see no reason why I can't think my way around a course properly, even if I can't execute the shots every time.

Went out and shot 69 this afternoon when trying to implement some swing changes. I'd love to say that score was because the changes were a roaring success, but the good score was mostly down to me barely missing a putt from inside 12ft all day.

Meh. Conte cancelled my meeting with him and the team this time last year to help the team come in last place in the 2013 World Football Challenge. Screw him. :D
