Research Project: Survey on quality of life and the impact of sleep during a golf season

[DrAWilliams]

Hi All,

Our research group between Abertay University and York St John University have just launched a new study, see details below.

We are looking for golfers and caddies who reside in the UK to complete a questionnaire focusing on sleep quality, physical activity, and quality of life at 3 different time points of the UK golf season.
 
At the end of the study, participants will be entered into a random prize draw for the opportunity to win one of three £50 Amazon vouchers.
 
Click to access the questionnaire: https://abertay.co/ZDAz
 
Any help with distributing the questionnaire would be greatly appreciated.

I reckon I know one or two players that fall asleep over their putters.

Roll on the dreams when for whatever reason you can't get a back swing. Or have to hit through a window . I've missed them over the winter

Damn, I've had exactly this. Teebox is inside a log cabin or a shed or something and you have to strike the ball through a 2 foot square window. Or every time you tee up the ball there's a bloody wall right behind you.

My golf dream/nightmare is standing in the trees having a pee and a stray drive hits me and knocks me out. Had it a few times and not sure of the deeper meaning but really don't want to be knocked out with my tackle on view whilst urine is dribbling down my legs

And then you wake up having wet the bed and your other half is punching you in the head?

Luckily not

I won't mess up the data by completing the questionnaire, because I'm likely to fall asleep halfway through.

Real life

I went to a club where the practice mats were inside a 'shed' (one open side) I put a ball down and smacked it creating a hole the back wall of the shed. Then realised you had to turn round to face the nets.

Mine usually consists of not being able to find my clubs or like most I can never complete my backswing. Weird.

I have this one...and no matter where you move the tee, the wall is still there

Bunch of headcases us golfers!

Ditto with the impossible backswing dream.

How can so many separate people have exactly the same dream? Bizarre.

I have this thing too! I’m usually in a building of some description, and have either a small high up window to get through or sliding doors that are partially open

It's probably not the response the OP Dr Williams was after but it's crazy how everyone has the same dreams.
Maybe it will give him an idea for a new study. The weird dreams of golfers.

It is not the golfing dreams I worry about it's the golfing nightmares.

Well they happen while I'm awake.

Interesting to answer questions following my recent heart attack.

Not quite my area of expertise, but probably could link to positive visualisations/use of imagery by someone!
