2017 Golf Resolutions or Goals?

[BIG STU]

1.  Tee it up with some of you rascals.

2.  Maybe add a new driver to the bag.

3.  Shoot more rounds in the 70's than I did in 2016.

I could stand to lose about 35 lbs. I think it would help my game.

But my big goal is to get fitted. I don't think I can get in the right direction till I do.

I've been on a good trend with my iron play, working toward a more compact swing that is much more controlled. As long as the snow doesn't ruin the whole winter, I just want to continue with that focus.

 

That alone, along with a little bit of mental focus, should turn some of my low 80's into mid 70's.

My 1 goal is to stick with the swing change I made this past August; my swing is money and golf is finally fun again, after my shoulder injury last year.

Every year I set a goal to play more and it rarely happens. As a Club Pro the days are very long and the golf course is still a work place so sticking around an additional 4-5 hours is not that attractive. However I love the game and need to find a way to play more than the 10 games a year I currently get.

 

Irons: Callaway XR 4-Pw, Aw. Right hand. 1 degree upright. 3/4" over length. Project X 5.5 steel. Tour Velvet +1/32" oversized grips.

For sure!

 

 

Man...how'd I get left out of this meeting? lol

 

 

Sorry!!! We had exchanged numbers last year and I never got a chance to link up. More the merrier!!

 

Don't know what side of town you're on but all about meeting up for a round.

 

 

Currently Dublin. Work in Westerville. Probably moving to the Westerville/New Albany/Gahanna/Blacklick/Pataskala area next year. haha

 

Don't forget me you bastards!!

Goal is to shoot 70s more than 80s

Play golf when I can without taking advantage of my awesome wife. First kid coming any day now, so time and money will be tight next year.

Congrats. Have a 7 month old at home. Killed last years golf season but worth every second!

I didn't! We still have to go play bent tree again when it's not raining

[Fivesome]

Take my 3 little boys to the range more.  They love hitting balls and putting, but I never seem to have enough time to take them when they want to go.

Welcome from the Pacific Northwest!!  Our Pro sets aside one day a week to play in the Men's League gangsome.  He enjoys getting out with the guys, and we enjoy him out there!!

[PaulJKelly]

I do the same but all it takes is a staff to be sick, computer crash, equipment breakdown or

I can't say I'm making any golf goals this go around. I just want to continue playing as much as I want and stay injury free. Do plan on continuing with my instructor/coach this year. It's been an enjoyable and helpful experience.

For sure! I think I'll try driver on #6 next time!

[fozcycle]

As I am retiring on Jan 4th, I plan on playing more golf this year, for sure.  Currently i have been playing on Sat & Sun with an occasional Tuesday thrown in.   I am planning on making Tuesday a regular game as I have friends that play at another club every week(Babe Zaharias GC).  It's a short course but allows for shot making skills to be practiced.  So that will get me 3 times a week.....

[cnosil]

Goals will be same this year as they were last year. Shoot a round in the 60s. My PB is 70 with about a dozen 71/72s. Get to scratch which will require me to practice more and work on short game. Work on iron play to better control ball flight to hit more greens.

Congratulations Foz I still have a long way to go before retirement and social security running out when I do. Enjoy it because you've definitely earned it

I might have to slide through Cordele and bring a couple of them cannon ball melons for a good ole fashion thumping contest  

[Kor.A.Door]

Work on being more consistent with my iron shots, right now I can't even hit the broadside of a football field from 30 yards with any club. I am usually hitting 12/14 fairways but for the life of me cannot hit a green, maybe 4/18, the other thing I need to focus on is making more putts. I just don't make any, unless it is for double then I can make anything from anywhere, just need to figure out how to do that when it is for birdie or par.

Golf Trips to me are like an all you can eat buffet, my eyes get bigger than my stomach and I can rarely eat all that I bite off.    meanng I want to take more golf trips than I have time for.

 

But if the above round was to take place in the Myrtle Beach area, I'd do my best to try and make it.

[Golfspy_CG2]

A few of my goals that I can say off the top of my head.

 

Get to realistically a 13 index, 10 in a perfect world.

 

Practice at least 3 days a week, playing at least twice a week.

 

Take at least 3 golf trips

 

Meet and Play with some MGS'ers (other than the local guys I already know..ha)

 

Regain length with the driver

[djahubes]

Shot 77 today with 3 birdies on front. Loving the EVNROLL ER5. Can't wait to get a hold of the sentio and see how it feels.

I'm hoping to finally get down into the single digits next season. With losing the weight I have I expect to be able to generate significantly more speed, so I'm hoping that translates to the course.

Losing weight definitely should help the scores because you'll be a little fresher during the tail end of a round. At least for me it did.

 

I'm getting myself back in the gym and will be starting my diet after the new year as well but so far I'm seeing good results for my game. Got up to 126 mph ball speed with a 7i during my last lesson so I'm gonna say it's helping lol

[Miboy62]

Last year my goals were to play the same clubs all year.

Gamed the Mizuno's all year, and my scores were going down all year.

 

Did not stick to my goal when it come to wedges / putter.

This year hell or high water I am going to stay with the wedges/putter like it was my

2nd wife.

 

Ball, I started with the B330S, then the B330RX, then the ProV1

Going to start with the ProV1

Awesome news man! Good luck with the life changes man. That's way bigger for both of us than any changes on the course! I'm just looking forward to it being a positive side effect! Haha.
