Yeah I get it, I have had the same problem when you seem to chilly dip your ball down the course and it seems that your ball isn't going anywhere but into the ponds, trees, rough and water.
Someone asked me if I golfed to relax and I told him hell no, beating your clubs on the ground and saying naughty words isn't relaxing. In my opinion there is nothing relaxing about golf. Just look at the guys in the USA open they dont' seem to be enjoying their selves all that much as they miss puts and spend money. There is always that one shot or hole that brings me back to the course. I haven't been as motivated about it this year, once the course turns green from brown then I get it.
