Has this happened to any of you?

Plated on Monday and had a really good round, shot 7 under my hcp. So, I go out yesterday, feeling all torqued about playing lights out again, and I play just terrible, wild drives, fat fairways, chunked chips and 3 putts, seems like everytime I play well, I follow up with a disaster.

I call that schitzo golf and it is my stock in trade. A few years ago, I shot 79 on a hard course, followed with a 99 on an easy course on consecutive days.

Keep in mind that with the USGA handicap system, you should only shoot your handicap about 25% of the time. That is just an anomaly in the way the handicap is figured. Shooting 7 under your handicap is a one in a thousand miracle, so your swing probably wasn't that wild statistically.

Still, I feel your pain.
