Every 2 months I get an RDO from work, which means it’s time to hit the golf course and play some golf! So far I’ve been playing 9 holes and because I just started out my current goal is to break 60 over 9 holes, with the eventual goal being to break 100 for 18 holes.
Over the last few weeks, I haven’t practiced much so I struggled with the first 5 – 6 holes off the tee and only played how I would like to for the last 3 holes.
My best was the 8th hole which was 165 Metre par 3, I made it onto the green in 2 shots and then had a 10 metre putt for par. The putt got me about 1.5 metres from the hole and so I was able to get a bogey which I was happy with. I also bogeyed the 9th hole to finish off well.
I decided that day to only bring 5 clubs with me the 7 – PW and the putter, to avoid the temptation to hit every tee with a driver, because I had so many issues with the driver last time. It also makes the decision of club selection a lot more straight forward.
I’m still excited to go out and practice and continue to work on improving my game and reaching my goals.
