Conditioning has really played a role in my game this summer. I have noticed that the heat and slow play on the local courses have taken their toll. Not so much a lowering of my physical abilities, but I can't maintain my mental concentration once I begin to tire. I have also noticed that if I play every other day, I tend to play better. Back to back days usually spell a bad day on the 2nd.
