There is an old saying: if a man comes home with sand in his cuffs and cockleburs in his pants, don't ask him what he shot.

These greens are so fast I have to hold my putter over the ball and hit it with the shadow.

There are no short hitters on the tour anymore - just long and unbelievably long.

I give the ball some sweet talk. I tell it that this isn't going to hurt a bit. I'm a friend and all I'm going to do is give it a nice little ride.

A bad putter is like a bad apple in a barrel. First, it turns your chipping game sour. Then it begins to eat into your irons and finally it just cleans the head off your driver.

Nobody asked how you looked, just what you shot.

First and fore-most, you must have confidence. Your second mental problem is concentration. Think the shot through in advance before you address the ball. Draw a mental image of where you want it to go and then eliminate everything else from your mind, except how you are going to get the ball into that preferred spot.
