Golf is very much a mental game, and having the mental ability to adjust on the fly is what sets good golfers apart from average golfers. I learned many years ago to just take what the course offers speed wise on a given day. I hate slow play as much as anyone, but I'm not a huge fan of singles trying to play speed golf either. As a single, you simply have to expect slow periods on the course.

I really have started learning just how much mental the game is. I never bought into it till recently. But now I really do. I wasn't really trying to play speed golf. I just play quick. I def wasn't hitting into anyone I actually waited on 18 till the group was off the green when I was still on the tee box. Hope you don't think I was that guy up someones butt all day. I don't do that. I really think I need to get more mentally tough out there. Today was just another round that proved it.
