You can’t be a cynic (Cameron has a troll)

Let’s do some straight talking. You may or may not be a fan of me, www.GolfGooRoo.com or my Automatic Golf theories. And if you’re not a fan or not interested that is fine with me. I promise I won’t hold a grudge. But, if you’re struggling with your game. If you’re frustrated, confused, fed up…

Breaking free from golf score

I think I’m so focused on results…that I never truly enjoy the game. What if I played just one game without worrying about score? I’ll still take it, but I won’t become defined by it. What if I just play for fun? Just for one game and see how it goes? Don’t care what the…

Technical golfer issue

technical golfer

I’ve lost track of the amount of times I’ve heard a technical golfer something like this: I like the idea of Automatic Golf but I’m a technical golfer.

A golfer’s mindset

Here’s a quote from Adrian Otaegui. Never heard of him? Neither had I but this young Spaniard birdied 5 holes in a row on route to a second round 62 in the latest offering on the European Tour. Here’s what he had to say: “I was focused and didn’t know that I had made five…

Can you really play golf free from fear?

Grayden correctly points out that if you don’t care then it’s possible. But (there’s always a but). It’s my experience not many can play without caring. I can only think of one golfer who is able to do it consistently. He plays for fun and doesn’t care what scores he shoots. His scores are inconsistent…
