Paul S Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Alright everyone, even though the arctic air is still lingering, it's time to set goals for the season. Let's hear what you're looking to accomplish this year! I'll start. This year my goal is to dial in my wedge game from 125 yds and in. I've gotten to a great place with a lot of my game between the end of last season and over the winter. When I got a few rounds in a couple weeks ago in Florida, only one aspect of my game really glaringly needed attention. My wedge game is weak, and it particularly sad that I'd rather be 160 yds out than 100. I want to get to the range and hammer out reliable distances with different swings with the wedges, because few things are as disappointing as missing a green from inside 120.

GolfSpy WD Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Golfspy MBP is going to be helping with my short game! It's where I lose by far the most shots. The half shots could use some work, but I'm specifically talking about 30 yards in and getting near the hole. I'll be spending most of my time practicing at local pitch and putts. @GolfSpy_WD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hckymeyer Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 My goal is to play more rounds than I did last year, or at the least not play less rounds.

PlaidJacket Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 My #1 Goal is to hit more greens. Period. My game is pretty solid... that is until I pull out a short iron to the green. I've really got to get with it. I'm losing probably 5-6-7 shots a round by missed greens.

SMRT Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 My goal is to shoot a round of 80. I shot 90 last year so I think 80 is possible. I have done a lot of work during this off season so I am confident that I will be able to do it. It might be the last round of this coming season but it will happen!

Mr_Theoo Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 My ultimate goal of the year would be to break 80. The stepping stone goals to that will be breaking 100 and 90. Last year I dropped 22 strokes from my best score the previous season so while I doubt I'll see that much of an improvement I think this season will be very good from all the work I've put in this winter.

Last year I dropped 22 strokes from my best score the previous season so while I doubt I'll see that much of an improvement I think this season will be very good from all the work I've put in this winter. Break 80. That's my goal as well. Got close at the end of last season with an 81, and the Florida rounds showed real promise. To get there though, it's all going to depend on if I can get the wedge game going. Good luck!

Jondagcl Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 My goal is to become a solid 9 hdcp. I've flirted with 10 only to have a piece of my game come undone. I'd like to work on getting my longer approach shots to be more solid. I've got a new 3 wood and 2 hybrids coming in which are a piece of the puzzle (my current 3 wood is either on fire or raises the question if I've ever held a golf club before) Great thread, thanks for starting it by the way.

whiskey golf Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 1. Break 80 for most rounds, at least half. 2. Get a sub 40 scoring average (9 holes) for high school season I've been playing a lot better lately with an improved mindset which has been getting me very close to goal #1. I also need to update my handicap, I have about 5 rounds not entered yet because I need to renew my membership. These goals will be tough to beat but it can be done, I have to really focus during my rounds and minimize damage whenever I can. The past few rounds have looked promising and I've been consistent. The only thing that prevents me from achieving these goals are usually one bad hole due to an errant driver or a couple of three putts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACcustomX Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Break 80 and keep it there. Concentrate more on my putting and up and downs from just off the green. Really work on my "touch". Also, if and when I do have "The Blow Up Hole", leave it on that hole, don't bring it to the next hole!

GolfSpy Barbajo Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Great thread Paul! Several goals: increase fairways hit - was at 55% last year, would like to get that into the 60 or 65% ranges. Also increase GIR's to at least 50%, which should follow. Keeping stats on The Grint shows that hitting the fairway gives me a 66% GIR. Missing cuts that down to 34%. Would like my handicap to get down into single digits...

I am planning to come out of mini tour retirement and play a couple of events on the Sunbelt Seniors Tour. I am now old enough I can play super seniors division and my wife has encouraged me to try it again. I am going to attempt to play a couple of events in the Carolinas. I have a little help on expenses and I am working on securing some more. The bag is set and I have been working hard with the weather permitting and I am loosing weight on my diet feeling good and swinging good. I am also working on the Vintage Persimmon and Steel Outing that we are going to do here and should have the dates confirmed later this week.

wbealsd Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Good for you, Stu! Golf will keep you young, just look at our peers who don't play As for my personal goal this year, I want to maintain the fitness regime I've started this winter using free weights and improve my mental game. Play smart, but focus on the shot at hand and then move on to the next. If I do that, I should stay in the 80's and occasionally break it.

dru_ Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 My goals are actually quite simple: 1. Play as often as I reasonably can 2. Don't turn down opportunities to play when they present themselves 3. Continue to trim strokes from the game by playing better/smarter 4. Enjoy the game, regardless of how I am playing Keeping that in mind. I plan to take the youngest out whenever she wants to go, as she has been my biggest roadblock to playing more. When friends want to play, I need am going to work harder to find ways to make it work rather than take the easy way out of not having a sitter. Coming with playing more is more practice and a consistent routine, but also setting the ego aside and taking the sure shot over the one I *can* make, but have a lower chance of making. I got as low as a 12 last season, this season I am working towards a 10. I have 15 more lbs to shed, and those are coming off with fitness and diet. Strengthening the core continues to be a focus to take pressure off my damaged shoulder, so all things considered, I feel pretty good about this season. The last few weeks have certainly seen several of the things I have been working on through the winter coming together.

IA Golfer Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 More GIR. Going to make an effort to track this and try to improve. Any advice is welcome. I think starting to focus on easy to hit or center of green targets vs. pins etc. Simplify... get in fairway. Get on green. I cut my handicap almost in half last year to a 10.5 but want to whittle down some more strokes and I found a very interesting score predictor with weighted factors that affect score. Weighted importance of GIR is shocking relative to other factors that seem to draw big attention... at least to me. I guess focusing more on one part of the process rather than whole score.

Kor.A.Door Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 my goals for the season is to get the hcp under 5, i am really close, it start with being more consistent around the greens when scrambling, i lose 2-3 shots per round when i miss the green, so being more consistent about making par instead of bogey will get me to the lower hcp.

BIG STU Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Thanks dru and Lefty. I will need it Thanks Lefty we don't use caddies carts are mandantory on that tour but I will need moral support. My wife wanted me to play the one at Hilton Head in 3 weeks but I put that off because I feel I don't have the time to properly prepare for it and I don't want to rush it because I have not played in pro competition in 5 years now. I am going to try to do the one in Calabash NC at the end of July. Calabash is only 40 miles from me and I have not played that course either so it will give me plenty of time to map out that course so to speak. I put off HH because the course they have selected I have never played and it is 90 miles from here and this time of the year it will be hard to get on it several times to plot out. I like to play a new course 3 or 4 times before I play comp on it. My friend who is quite a player and teaching pro himself ( even though he does not mess with my swing) is going to go up there with me to plot out the course he does have great course management skills. My late friend that I was in the golf shop business with summed up my golf game well one time. " You hit the ball good you putt excellent but your course management absolutely sucks" I had that printed up nicely by a print shop and framed hanging in my shop now. My friend who is going with me said yesterday was a little less sutile he told me yesterday " I will be ok if I get my head out of my arse and think" So heck come on down I need all the moral support I can get I might need to borrow someones brain Driver ---- Callaway Big Bertha Alpha Speeder 565 R flex- 5W TM V-Steel Fubuki 60r--- 7W TM V-Steel UST Pro Force Gold 65R----- 9 W TM V Steel TM MAS stiff---- Irons 2015 TM TP CB Steel Fiber 95 R--- GW Callaway Mack Daddy 2 52* shaft unknown junk pile refugee.

I am feeling great and I absolutely am not starving myself or having hunger flashes and have energy out the roof IT always makes me wonder at the concept of people associate 'diet' with 'starving'. I find that it is not about eating 'less', it is about eating 'better' and pushing away a plate when you are full. That said, I have evolved back into a bit of a fitness nut over the last couple of years. Last saturday for example. I overbooked myself. Ran a 5k Jog for a Cause event at 7:30am, showered, played my regular Stableford group for 18 holes at 9:40A, met the daughter for a late lunch and bike ride at 3:00PM, and then did some housework rebuilding a pool pump when we got back. When I looked at my food log that I keep on my phone. I had consumed about 4500 calories for the day, but when balanced against a 26 minute 5k run, a 4 hour 18 hole 6.5 mile walking round of golf, and a 25 mile @ 14 mph bike ride, I was probably still about net -1200 calories consumed - calories burned for the day.

I have been even going into 18 twice, and I have ended up four over once, (I hit my driver out of bounds, and then I hit it in the other fairway) The second time I 3 putted 18, and I lipped out a 7 footer to shoot par on the last hole.

silver & black Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Play smarter. Putt better. Leave the ego in the parking lot and hit fairways instead of trying to hit as far as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
