Golfing goals for the new year

Try and get more than one round a week during the summer months and beat my 500 holes I managed last year. I would also like to get my 20.3 h/cap reduced, but at my age its just playing rather than performing, so Im not holding my breath......fresh air and exercise that will do me
 
Not setting myself any handicap targets although I'd obviously like it lower.

My only aims are to play as many qualifiers as possible and score as well as I can with whatever game I have each day.

I've been guilty in the past of not caring about my score when I'm not playing well and it's cost me a couple of buffers.
 
How many of our aims are realistic?

I concur with Crow, hitting drivers etc for the sake of it, rather than strategic player does not always help one's score & handicap!
 
Same as last year for me...

Handicap to single figures and get a lowest gross in a comp and play more.

Need to find a new club as well but that's not really a goal itself but will hopefully help me achieve some of the above
 
Had to have a good think about this one as i over achieved last year.

All I can come up with for this year as a goal is to shoot in the 60's (par 72) in a comp. Now that would be superb around our tough old track.

I also want to put up a better show in the Opens I play this year. I only hit a couple of buffers last year and loads of 0.1's back , so thats a goal to play better away from home in comps.

Defending the Club champs would be nice but I can take or leave that one really.

I'm realy looking forward to a couple of the forum meets this year that I can get too. Some cracking courses and obviously the company is going to be super and right old laugh by the sounds of it.
 
Prepare for a round a lot better, (ie hit some balls beforehand). Had a lot of singles and doubles on our first due to a terrible tee shot.

Put together a 36 hole score during Opens. Managed to win cash for a good score and a best am or pm but have thrown in a 78/ 79 during the other round.

These two will, hopefully, take care of my handicap going back to 3.
 
Well, firstly I'll need to find new bats, then I need to sort my head out a bit and then I need to lose some weight and get back to the gym.

If all that happens the golf will at least be better than last year :D
 
Not to come last at the Beau Desert forum meet
Not to come last at the Blackmoor forum meet
Not to come last at the Woodhall Spa forum meet

..... get the picture?
 
I'd be delighted if I could still be off 5 at the end of the season which was my main goal last year and was achieved - just. However, as I'm club Captain this year my goals are more about my waistline not going up rather than my handicap !! :D
