How come you,ve "totally lost your game"?.
Almost exactly all of the symptoms you described. Tensed up, pot a couple of decent balls then miss a sitter, felt that I was not getting a shot or any luck, negative thoughts when down on the shot. It has been the only prolonged patch I have ever had and I am finally coming through it.
What you said about being positive on the shot is weird. How come if you get down on the shot and think it will go in it generally does, but if you feel negative then no matter how hard you look for the angle you won't find it.
It is a bloody hard game but that's why I like it.
Intrestin that your sufferin from the same symptoms.
Just like everythin,it,s always easier said than done,but we really do have to be more confident when goin for shots and try to not get so down when an oponnent gets good slices of fortune.
We`re going through a "when it rains,it pours" phase,but our pottin boots will come alive again + we will eventually start to get a kinder run o the balls again + all that heavy,horrible rain will get gathered in a tornado and it,ll be blown at our oponnents and the
will shine for us again.
It certainly can be a bl**dy hard game and it really can get frustratin at times,it,s a bit like my missus,but i also love the game and i love my missus too.
