Hopewell Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I guess as most of you here have the bug, is this not more akin to an AA meet..? The obsession is real! My name is Jon and I've been golfing for about 4 years now. Sadly, this year I am making an effort to improve bar taking a bad guess at my handicap and playing with my buddies. I have committed to regular coaching and have set goals to reach by the end of the season. Frustration set in having serious shanks in the middle of last season, but also seriously inconsistent scores. I typically play 9-12 holes a few times a week in the summer, but last year seemed to score everything from 2 shots over to somewhat 20 shots over. As with other hobbies, I am now that guy which seems to be endlessly trying to learn about the industry, the physics of the game as well as my own mental game. Let's see how 2018 pans out..

Hopewell Posted March 27, 2018 Author Share Posted March 27, 2018 Seems I've struck a chord with a few people and found people with a similar problem.. "Hi Kevin.." First proper round this year over the weekend saw me at 87 (+17), showing great promise for the year. I went out in +5 and came back in +12, doh! Over the moon and definitely had my hit for the week.
