If you’re a recreational golfer and want to improve your score, here’s an idea you might want to try.  When you arrive at the course you’re going to play, have a pad and pen with you and write down all the things that may be going through your mind (before you tee off) regarding chores you may have coming up. Like “Don’t forget to bring milk home for the baby,” or “Be sure to drop off the deposit at the bank” or “Remember to make that important phone call when you return to work.” Once you’ve written on paper all the things that are going through your mind, and you no longer have to worry about remembering them, just leave the list on your car seat and head for the course, knowing the list will be there when you finish. You’ll find that you’ll be unencumbered with “baggage” and will definitely be more focused on the job at hand: Shooting an excellent score . Good luck, and let me know how this works for you.
