Creative Commons License photo credit: GoOregonDemocrats     Gamesmanship is  an important  part of golf.   Its not “dirty pool” as some people claim.   If it were, PGA Professionals would not  utilize it but they do!   Try the following if you find yourself falling back in a match:

1)   Make sure your opponent putts every putt, even if its a foot away.   By doing so, it establishes the fact that YOU are now in control of his shots.   2)   If your opponent is a fast player, play a little slower.   If he is a slow player, play faster.   The fact that someone is waiting for him will tend to make him nervous.   3)   If  his par attempt rolls a few feet past the hole and your ready to try for a birdie, don't immediately give him the putt.
