Last year I set myself a target to get a handicap of less than 28. To some this may seem simple but I'd never ever held a club before and only started to practice in March 2010, First game was in May 2010. I submitted my first 3 cards and got given a handicap of 25.
Since then I have only played in 1 comp, but am going to dedicate my weekends to Comps this year. With that in mind I have several targets.
At present I dont have a driver, and hit my 3 wood an average of 215 yards. My 6 Iron 140, and PW 110. I want to put at least 10 yards on each of my clubs, and improve my dispersion to <20yards.
Am I being unrealistic, I can get to the range and manage the cost of 300 balls a week, and get in the bunkers and greens etc at the club for another 3 hours a week.
Any advice for a practice regime would be greatly appreciated, and at the end of the year, I'll invite everyone to laugh at my expense if I fail miserably.
Since then I have only played in 1 comp, but am going to dedicate my weekends to Comps this year. With that in mind I have several targets.
- Reduce 3 putts to <1 for each 54 holes.
- Reduce the ferocity of my slice to a fade at most.
- Learn my distances for my all my clubs in bag.
- Practice at least 3 times per week.
- Improve my cardio and strength fitness to help with all the above, and improve my concentration levels throughout the rounds.
- Drink at least 3 pints after each comp
