Bad workman syndrome is not lost in the game of golf. People do, however, need to take responsibility for their poor shots as they should in any game. There are times when equipment needs an upgrade but the chances are that a bad shot comes from a bad swing or a bad player. Don't be the guy who blames everything else, move on and hit the next shot as well as possible. Everyone has done it but everyone who has done it knows that they are only fooling themselves if they outright blame their equipment for skulling a drive into the rough or not even getting a tee shot past the ladies tee-box in front. This is much of the issue with customizable clubs like the TaylorMade woods. People now believe that they are not at fault when they hit a poor shot. Changing your driver or the way it sets up cannot make up for a less than adequate swing. Time and effort must be put in to play golf at a high standard.
