At some point, you can’t keep blaming the swing when you’re the one managing the course.
Leadership picked the clubs, picked the target and called the shots.
Ball goes in the water?
Execution problem. Naturally.
We’ve got 14 clubs in the bag, 30 swing thoughts and enough self created hazards to make Pete Dye jealous.
Now Ram wants feedback.
Here it is: stop changing clubs in the backswing. Stop adding another swing thought after every bad hole. And maybe stop blaming the people hitting the shots for a game plan they didn’t create.
PEPNA feels like buying another set of clubs when nobody can agree where the pin is.
Simplify the game. Pick a target. Clear the obstacles. Let the operators swing.
You can blame execution for a bad hole. Maybe even a bad round.
But if you keep shooting 98, eventually you have to stop blaming the caddie.
Maybe it’s time to let somebody else read the putt.
