Playing well after a break

[Durango]

I started playing golf again a couple of months ago after not playing for a couple of years at all. Got a really bad kidney problem and currently waiting for a new one! Had a few sessions at the range and joined my local course about three weeks ago. Despite not playing for so long I am actually playing really well, probably as well as ever. I'm pretty shocked by it to be honest. I just played 9 holes today with my old man walking round with the dogs in tow (probably illegal!) and shot one under gross. I think having the break from golf has really increased my enthusiasm and enjoyment of the game. Hope it continues

Nice play, keep it up. I think sometimes you put less pressure on yourself after a break, you expect to play badly so just relax, and hey presto you play well

Well done that is good shooting at anytime let alone with the health issues and the break. Hate to see what you can do fully fit!

Thanks, I only wanted a brag

Wow that is some good shooting.

I'm getting back after over a year off for health reasons and I've also been surprised that I am knocking it round as well as I am. Nothing special, mid 80's, with the course playing short but I think playing without expectations, and feeling glad just to be there, does clear your mind and free your swing.
