thinking will kill your golf game
nothing will kill your golf game more than thought
golf is more spiritual than mental...by far

And thus, the far more intellectual sport.
More thought goes into the planning of a round, hole by hole, alone, than will go through your head playing any of the sports I mentioned.
I"m just being honest about it, as I've played at a competitive level in all 5 sports, Golf was the most nerve wracking, most up and down emotionally, and most intellectual for me. Football, Soccer, Baseball, Basketball, all became second nature to me, I rarely had to think by comparison.
In Golf, 98% of your time is spent thinking.
