You get to relax between each shot,
you cannot focus for the whole two
and a half to three and a half hours
that it takes to go round a golf course.

It is impossible to focus for any
great length of time.
You have to learn when and
how to switch your focusing
powers on and off

Use visualisation to help you relax
At the beginning of your game
imagine you have an egg timer
full of concentration / focusing
powers but it only lasts for 90
minutes.
Imagine the focus in that timer trickling away
as you prepare and take your shot.

Each shot uses up a little bit more of the
focusing powers.
To save those powers you imagine that you turn the timer on its
side immediately after each shot and that is when you take the
time to relax.

The trick is to have enough
focusing powers to last
the whole game so use
them sparingly and wisely
