2014 Texas State Am to US Junior
I don't have my state am trip report ready yet, but figured I'd give you guys something to look forward too. I'd say my horse is looking good for the US Junior today....unless the one kid can shoot 61 this afternoon.

I'm about 3/4 of the way through the "How to Prepare For a Big Event" video on the Decade app. It inspired some different ideas, so I'm going to work through them here.
I've always considered myself above average or better mentally. I like the concept of Dr. Larson's mental scorecard, but I've very rarely dipped under 95% for any substantial period of time. I don't waste shots by getting in my own way. If I recognize a negative thought, it's pretty easy to toss it aside and get back to the task at hand. So it's a metric that has rarely been a call to action.
After watching this video, I realize how much better I could be mentally, even if my "mental scorecard metric" stayed exactly the same:
- I'm not a good green reader, even at maximum focus
- Outside of yoga, I haven't gotten into meditation
- I have not kept a golf journal
Each of those things is a skill that can be developed and worked into a routine. I'm grateful to have found Tour Read Golf via Scott because I didn't have a way to get feedback on my reads outside of dedicated time with my swing coach on the greens. The other two are much easier/simpler to invest time in. Happy to have things on the mental side that I can devote time to.

As I was reading this my first comment was going to be to look into Tour Read! The challenge with meditation is that it will feel completely pointless for a LONG time. You just need to stick with it and then when you're in real life be looking for times that your mental chatter is turning negative and the fall back on what your learning in your meditation sessions to hopefully completely drop the negative and recurring thoughts, or at a minimum, be able to attempt to laugh at them and not let them consume you.
Great work and I guarantee you that putting the effort in here like you are will produce results!
