I made the simulator harder than the golf course | Road to Pro Day 10

Day 10: I gave myself 30 days to go from shooting 95 to passing my PGA playing exam.

Day 9 got me to 85 by chasing fairways. To go lower I need the next shot: actually landing it on the green. But you cannot book 18 holes in the summer, and five hours for a handful of approach shots is not practice.

So I took it to the Trackman and made the simulator harder than the course. Every club in the bag, shortest first, four different shots in a row with each one before I was allowed to move on. I hit so many balls I could call the result without looking up.

Then the real test: a last minute evening nine. The shots were not perfect, but they were committed, and I learned to play my misses onto the green anyway. Back in the sim at 11:30pm it finally landed. When you are too tired to think, golf becomes effortless.

20 to go. Does your game get better or worse when you stop thinking?
