The Next Stroke
When you miss a shot, never think of what you did wrong. Come up to the next shot thinking of what you must do right. (Tommy Armour, late professional golfer)
When we make a mistake, it’s wise, of course, to consider what happened, and what we could have done better. When referring to an errant golf shot that ends up in the bunker, you really don’t have time to do that; you can waste precious time that needs to be used to plan the recovery stroke. It’s always best to be thinking ahead with a positive attitude, not dwelling on the past.
Look straight ahead, and fix your eyes on what lies before you (Proverbs 4:25).
