... One step at a time. If your handicap is a 23.6 your goal is to hit one or a couple of solid shots during the round. Then build on that and try to hit 3 or 4 solid shots a round. How far you hit them is pretty irrelevant at this development stage of your journey to becoming a better player. The rest will come and you can start to be more accurate with yardages, trajectories and scoring. And really enjoy and relish those good shots, even if it is only one in an entire round. Concentrating on the positive and ignoring the negative is very important when improving. 👍  I see far too many disappointed in their bad shots when they are supposed to hit bad shots. If you can keep that really good 7i shot you hit in your head, you know can repeat it. 

I can always count on your wisdom mister wizard! Thanks a bunch!

Hard to believe this started nearly a year ago! 

It's crazy to think about, it honestly doesn't feel like it was that long ago. It was an amazing opportunity and one I'll be forever grateful for. We had some wonderful competitors and I'm thankful for the friendships I made because of this. 

The clubs are still performing great, I have all but one still in the bag. The hybrids I could still wax poetic about and the Forged Tec X irons have performed extremely well for someone of my skill level.

Craziness - feels like yesterday @sirchunksalot! Still pinching myself that I was able to participate as the resident “newbie” here, and really enjoyed testing alongside a great group of members!

Oh, and fully agree on the King Tec - don’t even get me started on my 7W 😍

I had an absolute blast following along with this. Always one of the best events on the forum!

... I have never had more fun on a golf forum than this event. So glad to have been a part of it and the other competitors made it so enjoyable. Just a great group of guys that took the "trash talkin'" in stride as it was all meant in fun. Especially @CFreddie who took the brunt of it. I would add those that followed and contributed were also a huge part of the fun and kept things interesting.

Wait, there was trash talking??? 🤪

But seriously, couldn't have said it better myself - I will always appreciate the opportunity and the group that was selected here!

I'll echo what others have said, this was such a fun thread! I'm glad I was able to tag along and enjoy the ride. Admittedly, I do miss the @chisag and @CFreddie banter 😂
