realistic targets for 2012

[RichardC]

Ideally down to low teens.

Who knows what will actually happen!!

 

[Ethan]

Ok folks, I'm looking at targets for the year and thinking what's realistic.
Off 12 at the minute, but was 10 last year and just had a bad year. Also feel like my driving is getting back on track and short game getting there.....
So this is what I'm thinking -
1. Get down to 9,
2. Make the uslter cup team
3. Win a medal
4. Win a summer knockout

Over to you..

Improve your chipping and putting, develop a 'go to' safe tee shot and play one shot at a time. Sorted.

Thanks Ethan, putting well at the minute, but have been woeful with pitches and chips so working hard on that, love the cally driver I got so feel very confident in it, if it fails I have a good 3/4 iron tee shot I feel I can hit all day so fingers crossed it comes together.

I have the same Cally. Good driver, can't blame it after a bad tee shot.

I'd like to make it to Cat1 but I think 6 is more realistic, then not slip back up again like I did last year after getting to 7.

 

[Mattyboy]

I should be able to get to 3. Need to sharpen up my wedge game and get used to the swing changes that I am working on via my lessons.

 

[moogie]

My aims......arent high, and Hopefully realistic

1) Maintain my current H/Cap ... 8 .... don't think I can get much lower, ( IMHO ) Im 43 now and only started playing 10years ago, very late starter to the game, so I'm quite Delighted to have ever got this Low.

2) To maintain my Head, and concentration, if / when faced with a terribly SLOW round, and not 'Walk', and hit the Bar, causing unecessary 0.1 Lifts........!!! ( Ive done this a few times last 2yrs ) :angry:

3) Try ( as usual ) to play some courses Ive never played before

4) Stop being an ebay Whore, and collecting wedges/putters, just cos u spot a bargain.

5) Try and WIN the Adult/Junior Comp with my Son in 2012, were 3rd in 2011

6) Just enjoy the game........woteva it Brings :clap:

 

[Scottjd1]

Im gonna spend my practice time 25% putting, 25% chipping greenside/bunkers, 25% pitching/approaching 100 yards and in and the remaining 25% woods/irons.

I need to become someone that others say 'has an awesome short-game' that will nicely see me into single figures.

I have a programme written up with my Pro so we have a plan and he is pretty confident that I can get down to 7 or 8
( but not that confident that he offered a money back guarantee):whoo:


Cant wait for this years golfing........ Gonna be FUN ne:

 

[Timh27]

mine are to obtain offical h/c, get regular lessons, play atleast 4 new courses and try to play all year round without taking 2 month gaps which to be fair they were mostly out of my control

 

[full_throttle]

Realistically get down to 18, hoping to get closer to the 16 mark,

 

[Scouser]

To break 100 on a regular basis.... only done it once

 

[USER1999]

Seven

 

[Rooter]

1. Handicap to around 15
2. Join a club as handicap member and play in a few tournaments
3. Play as much as possible with a new baby(3rd) due at the end of June.... 1 is looking tough now! Lol

 

[noble78]

Try and get me handicap down 18, short game is the key to this i think as my putting lets me down alot of the time

 

[Captain_Black]

This will be my 1st full year.
I am going to enter as many comps as I can, my aim this year is to shoot 90 or below on a regular basis, get my handicap lower & enjoy my golf.

Oh, also to play in our Stragglers team home & away.

 

[FairwayDodger]

I hope to officially hit single figures early in the year (first qualifying comp would be nice), and finish up closer to 5 than 10 by the end of the year. I'm taking a few lessons, practising and am definitely hitting the ball better so am encouraged.

If I'm managing that then hopefully I can go one better and win my club's ladies championship this year and do well in a few opens....

 

[wull]

my target this year is to get down to 3 and to contend in both club championships at killin and callander.

i also want to play as many gents opens as possible and shoot as many low scores at these opens.this shoudl equate to me getting down to 3 no problem.......easier said than done though.

Win a summer knockout Over to you..

Pretty much exactly this although being greedy I would like to get to 7 or 8

 

[drawboy]

I'm currently 11.5. I'm having lessons to sort out my takeaway, when that clicks I will be looking to lose at least2 shots this year with 3 a strong possibility.

 

[millisle1]

Get back down to 12, and start enjoying it again. Found the last couple of months a bit of a chore when nothing was going right.

New course to play and a wee revamp of the back hopefully do the trick.
