RecruitPKB: Prepare for Tournaments Better

Many times I hear girls and parents say “But I played great during my practice round and shot __ ” but then didn't play well during the tournament, or “I play well when I play at home” and think that compares to rounds at away courses and during competition. Bottomline, is that those are not and never will be the same as tournament golf.
