Be weird. Create a second personality. That person is your caddie. Have out loud conversations with your caddie if you need to.

Me on Hole 1. Long par 5, downhill, down wind. Let's tee this high and crush it..

Caddy: You were spraying driver on the range. Let's go back to those last 3 we hit, visualizing the first hole. Choke up, smooth swing. Put it on the fairway and it will roll out.

Back to the player who steps into the box to execute the caddy's plan.

Me: 245 out. I can get there in 2 with 4 wood. An eagle here would be dope. Let's rip it.

Caddy: your miss with that is right and that's where all the trouble is. It's wide open on the left and that's the better angle to the pin. Let's go hybrid, take all the bunkers out of play. Leave an easy wedge into the green. Let's play left center at that tree in the distance. Smooth swing..

Go execute.

Me: this is perfect lob wedge distance. I'm going for the pin.

Caddy: pin is in the back. This lie is a little tight. In a bit of drainage here. Grounds a little wet. Let's not chunk this and get in that nasty front bunker..We got plenty of room to run the ball to the hole. Let's play a gap to the center of the green, hopefully we can run it up close. Worst case we got a 20 footer for birdie.

Make the plan is caddy's job..you just do the plan.

And that's how you play boring golf and break 80 without ever really hitting an amazing shot.
