2020 Goals

[Jacko_G]

Enjoy life.

Lost a couple of friends this year WAY to young in life.

 

[Hobbit]

Wake up every day.

 

[RangeMonkey]

1. Join a club
2. Get a handicap
3. Increase distances with all of my clubs to something beyond the capability of the average 8 year old!

 

[fundy]

Be fit enough to play golf for most of the year! (yeah i know i know, balsa and all that)

Forum goal to put on ignore rather than argue with the pointless ones (already off and running on this one)

You saved me typing . They’re my goals too!

 

[Jigger]

Shoot 78 regularily off the white tees and have a handicap around 14....?

Probably going to have to be happy with just 1 of those in reality.

Aim for the 78s and the 14 should be beaten easily.

 

[HarrogateHacker]

Mine would be,
1. Stay healthy enough to play lots of golf 50+ full rounds with midweek 9 holes in summer on top. (Spent much of the summer injured after a car crash)
2. Lose 5 shots from Hcap, having just started back properly and being off 19 this should be possible (with practice)
3. Get foreign golf trip in Spain or Portugal
4. Play atleast 5 clubs off my ‘must play’ list
5. Play into double figures at my new club where I joined as a country member
6. Win something, don’t care what, just something

Goals for 2020

Play more top 100 courses with the forum and with the lads from Woodhall.

Enjoy playing and spending time with mates playing this game we love and finishing on the 18th green still laughing is the top priority.

Not give a toss what I score. If the handicap goes up even more it’s not going to bother me one bit.

 

[IanM]

The NBS days are great this year. James has done a good job

He has...That's what I am referring too....... I used to laugh at the over 50s puffing a bit in the afternoon rounds!

Cant wait to be back at Blackwell.

Additional thought, will be passing 400 courses played this year

 

[davemc1]

Every year so far I’ve lowered the hc, so this has to be the goal. Slight spanner in the works is im no longer a member of a club ?‍

Society hc is 12, so realistically the goal has to be to lower that. 9.4 has a nice ring to it...

 

[larmen]

Similar to mine but I am aiming to play 9 holes in 50.

I play 9 holes in 44 -51 and haven’t broken 120 yet. ;-(
I want to go sub 100 this year.

Having joined a club late last year I saw how much better players than me are that shot mid 80s to 90s, I leave that for once I consistently beat 100.

 

[Liverbirdie]

Have a nice little Saturday away and 2 rounds,all being well, celebrating my 50th this year with some reprobates on here.

Get back down to 5 would be nice, either that or go back up to 7, and win all sorts.

Keep on enjoying it as much as I do.

Play some golf next year with Bluewolf, Stuey, Odvan and a few more of the NW crew, as we have let our meet ups slip a bit.

Good luck
at this level it really is all about course management, you really don't have to hit the ball very well at all! Just hit the shots you know you can pull off and aim for a bogey score each hole. Plan each hole from the green back to the tee and keep the trebles off the card, then the doubles... you'll get it. You don't have to be perfect, just make better decisions!

 

[Curls]

The honest answer is I don’t know yet. I’m torn between playing more competitive golf at my current place or joining a far superior club in every other way, but playing fewer comps and likely no club scratch matches (which are my favourite).

If I stay with the familiar old girl my goal would defo be get down to 4 and help the club win the league.

But the other woman is Gal Gadot.

 

[robinthehood]

No goals as I'll be too busy moving home. Not that I have ever really set any before .

What happened to Birchy, he used to organise a few?

You may have missed the (obviously poor) attempt at humour here. My handicap is on the way up these days

 

[Slime]

Play more.
Laugh more.

 

[upsidedown]

Play in the Am English Seniors and maybe the Welsh
