OK, please allow me to paint a portrait for you: It's Saturday morning. The course is insanely crowded. Your foursome is finally up after having waited a half hour for groups ahead of you. Behind your group (on the cart path leading up to the first tee) are 6 carts waiting impatiently to tee off. It's your turn to drive the golf ball. You walk up to the tee box and think to yourself that there are a total of 15 eyes upon you.

What goes through your mind? Are you confident or do you allow yourself to think the worst (ie worm burner, duck hook, bannana ball etc.) How's your stomach? Butterflies? Worse?

OK. Here's the question: With so many impatient people waiting and watching does it affect your normal routine, mindset, or execution? This is usually one of golf's greatest fears, so don't be afraid to be honest about your emotions.
