I grew up playing golf. First job was at a golf course. Eventually became a golf instructor. Played tournaments in California. Worked like a lunatic on everything. Used to spend two hours a day practicing bunker shots. The head pro at the course I played would walk by me every day watching me practice bunker shots and ask me if I was learning anything. He was 75 years old and didn't play anymore  

One day after a year of watching me practice out of a bunker he stopped again and asked if I was learning anything. I thought I was a ****ing wizard out of a sand trap by then. 

He walked into the bunker and said, "Don't practice the shot out of here. Practice the shot that put you here" and he walked away. 

Don't wonder about going for two. Don't end up needing it.
