Correct one fault at a time. Concentrate on the one fault you want to overcome. |
Forget your opponents; always play against par. |
Golf is played with the arms. |
If a lot of people gripped a knife and fork the way they do a golf club, they'd starve to death. |
Make the basic shot-making decision early, clearly and firmly, and then ritualize all the necessary acts of preparation. |

Practice puts brains in your muscles. |

The only reason I ever played golf in the first place was so I could afford to hunt and fish. |
