No one can keep their focus for the entire 4 or 5 hours. They key is the 30 seconds or so before you hit. Get into your routine and that's where you start focusing. Enjoy the walk in between shots. Let your mind wander, shoot the sh*t with your buddies, whatever. But when it's time to hit, turn the focus back on.
As an example, if I am waiting to hit second shot onto the green, I am not even pulling a club out of the bag until it's time to get into routine. Only when the green is cleared (or clearing) will I pull the club and get ready to go.
