Guest Editorial: Marcus Idiart - Crater Golf alumnus:  

I'm not sure what it is, but something mentally switches every time you accomplish a goal in golf. I feel like every time I made a goal that I really had to work toward, (once) I finally reached it, it became natural. Something in your mental game just switches. I was thinking about one of my goals, which was to break par in a round of 18. Once I got to the point in my game where . . .I felt like I could break par, I made the goal to do it. It was a goal not way, way too far out there, but one that really made me stretch to accomplish. I kept this goal in my mind every single time I was out at the course. . . . I would get to practice 4 hours early and hit balls on the range, chip, putt, go out and play holes. I would do everything I could, constantly with the thought in my mind of finally breaking par. It took awhile and a lot of training, but man was it nice to finally do. But like I said, once I finally accomplished that goal, something switched and it became more natural. (After) months of working (toward) this goal . . .  finally I did (break par) and it became natural right away. Four of my next 10 rounds I broke par, including in a tournament at EP.  Shortly after I shot in the 60s a couple of times (it) felt more comfortable shooting under par. (And then state happened) But my point is having a goal that really makes you work hard is huge for your game. Every day you go out there with the thought of breaking that goal. You plan your practice around áreas of your game that need to improve in order to hit your goal. And a little secret for the team, whether your goal is to break 100, 90, 80, par or anything else, the key is... SHORT GAME!!!!!! You should have a lot of different plans and goals but always have a goal to break a certain score, always. Just don't be like me and get mad when you don't do it right away because it will take time. Everyone should make a goal that they have to really plan and work hard too accomplish. I guarantee once you finally hit that goal it will become more natural and you will be setting a new goal to work toward.
