If I&amp;#39;m over a shot, thinking I can get this on the green, I usually miss hit it. My problem is over thinking the shot.&lt;/p&gt;

Wish it was longer, but excellent point. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Don&amp;#39;t think &amp;quot;I am probably going to hit it in the water&amp;quot;, think/visualize &amp;quot;Where do I want the ball to land&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Don&amp;#39;t think &amp;quot;If I hit it fat, it&amp;#39;s in the trap&amp;quot; think &amp;quot;This is going to be crisp, just short of the pin, two hops&amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Look at your target, plan your shot, and ignore all the bad possibilities in between. Too many guys I play with have the wrong thoughts before the shot. Heck, we all make bad shots, but positive thinking definitely can eliminate a bunch of them.&lt;/p&gt;
