How Did The Squirrel Cross The Road?
A golfer can learn a lot from a squirrel (besides storing food and teasing dogs). Most squirrels crossing the road have one goal-to dart across without getting flattened. A successful squirrel will commit to crossing the street and scurry across the road with effortless speed. Timing the dash, of course is essential and committing to “full throttle squirrel booty mode” is helpful.
Some squirrels hesitate. They get in the middle of the road and get all wishy-washy about which way to run. Sound familiar? Have you ever stood over a golf shot, (consider yourself already in the middle of the road) and wondered: Is this the right club? There’s water on the right, Should I aim more left?
Having a clear, concise direction is the key to success. Decide on the shot (hint: your first instinct is almost always correct). Then commit to full throttle golfer booty and swing. Being all “willy-nilly” over a golf shot is the surest way of getting squashed.
