Good luck, but I'm not sure you grasp how hard it is to get to scratch. Even with limitless money it's not a given you'll get there.
Getting to Cat2 is easy enough, Cat1 requires a good chunk of natural ability and lots of practice. Pushing down in Cat1 to anything like scratch is so so tough. Its not just about how good your golf is, but how strong you are mentally.

3 years to get to 18 from 22?! Just simple math says your trip to a "possible" scratch handicap will take more than a decade at that rate.
As I said, good luck with your journey... you're going to need it.

not full picture - might be best if you read the blog if you can spare a moment

A decade, that's a lot of golf he gets to play. Lucky ba*****!. Twenty2scratch, hope you enjoy the challenge and playing around with social media.

Morning guys,

Update on this - there is a lot more content now on social media and on the site from the last month of playing. I have the World Final of the BMW Golf Cup International (http://www.bmw-golfsport.com/en/tournaments/bmw-golf-cup-international/home/series.html) next week in Dubai so there has been a lot of focus on that with another blog post due tomorrow evening looking at the last week of prep with the coach and getting things ready. I also have a place on the Trilby Tour coming up later this year.

Now the site has 4000 people following on Facebook and around 1700 on Instagram.

Those links again if you would like to follow:

Just seen the website! I think its a brilliant idea! I'm going to add it on my Facebook and keep track! I really like the idea! Best of luck to you!
I've always thought about getting up at 6 and going to practice field early morning - but I just can't get up in the morning to do it - might try again this year! we'll see!
