Someday I’ll stroke my last putt on the last hole I’ll ever play. Until then, I intend to be conscious of my good fortune every time I tee it up. As a mental practice for a club-level golfer, nothing’s more fundamental than simply being grateful for being there.

I love playing golf, and I make it a point to keep quiet if I don’t have something positive to say. But this decision makes no sense to me. In my 17 years playing golf, I’ve never heard one guy finish a round and complain about how far he was hitting it off the tee. If

Golf is arguably the world’s hardest sport. So next time you make a bad swing /get a bad break, don’t respond as if you should be the one player on earth exempt from the reality of the game. Your mother thinks you’re special, but the game will treat you like everyone else.

To love golf is to say ‘yes’ to the striped drive down the middle and the nasty slice OB; to an approach shot to gimme and a shank with a wedge in your hand; to a 40ft bomb for birdie and a missed 2footer par putt. All of it is a gift from the gods; all of it. Play accordingly.

there’s grinding to turn a double into a bogey, or a bogey into a par, (which can be one of the most immersive and enjoyable aspects of golf) and there’s grinding with joyless effort because nothing is, or ever will be, quite good enough. Embrace the former. Reject the latter.

Every golfer should follow Kent, in my humble opinion!! I have taken so much from his daily tweets about the mental side of the game and, Im playin some of the best golf of my life! Make golf fun, not a chore. It should be an escape from reality for 4 hrs, shouldn't be like work!

Every golfer would take an improvement in accuracy, distance, or consistency. But if you truly want to enhance your experience on the golf course, start feeling grateful for being there, and grateful for all the people and things that must come together for you to enjoy a round.

My view (as a recreational golfer) of golf’s holy trinity — Gratitude for being there — Immediate acceptance of a miss hit — The spontaneous enjoyment of a solid strike.

Golf is a gift. Accept with gratitude … Appreciate it by being a great guy to play with … Enjoy it like a child at play.

Note to self - When you lose a match, or someone else wins a tournament you’re in, congratulate the winner AND refrain from making excuses, “I didn’t play well”, “I didn’t make any putts”, etc. Stop whining and put your energy into figuring out how you could’ve played better.

when i tee it up, i believe I’m faced with a fundamental choice … to play with expectation, or, to play with appreciation. Truth is, i grab onto the first option all too often, but when i choose the latter and stay in that vibe for 18 holes … playing is a pleasure.
