“Anyone who has been around the game for a while knows golf is cruel, that golf is punishing, that golf is
hard, that the rules are unforgiving. Golf is a game in which you have to play your mistakes. Given all that, my father could never understand why golfers were so hesitant to forgive themselves on the golf course.
You see players make a lousy shot, then they literally hit themselves on the head. Is this sane behavior? I don’t think so. ‘Learn to forgive yourself,’ Dad used to say. You might as well, because
nobody else will. And if you don’t forgive yourself after a bad shot, your chances on the next one are quickly diminished.” – Davis Love III
