This episode highlights that a long, cold offseason is not a curse, but actually a blessing. I'm embarking on major swing changes that would be impossible during the on-course season.

I'll go through key highlights (and lowlights) of the final rounds of my flight in the Club Championships (I finished in 3rd of 14). I'll start by talking about the senior that won the championship flight against other plus handicaps! I'll talk about what I thought went well mentally, and a key negative mental thought that caused a blowup hole and a somber mood for the remainder of the day.Music credit: Time Slips By - Go By Ocean_Ryan McCaffreyhttps://www.youtube.com/@Seniortoscratch-------https://www.instagram.com/senior_to_scratch/#-------https://twitter.com/seniortoscratch
