In reality, if you shoot a low score, didn't you play well? I like to shoot low scores. As low as my ability allows. If I hit the ball well all day and card a crappy score, that doesn't make me happy. Leaves me with a case of the "should haves". I should have made that putt, or that putt, or that putt.

I doubt if many people come off the course having shot a personal best and think that they've played badly. What happens in my case I think is I have days when I come out and I feel like I have two left hands on the club. Just don't know what I'm doing with myself, but I hit the ball straight. It just feels bad. Then there are also days where I come out and it just feels right. Everything clicks and it's like it's easy. When that first one coincides with a good putting day, you can shoot a very low score, but feel like you didn't play that great. If the second comes along with a poor putting day, you can shoot a higher score, despite feeling like you had it on a string. Every now and again you get the second one and a good putting day coming together. Those are very, very good days to be on the golf course. Sadly, they don't happen all that often.
