What are your golfing resolutions for 2016?

[louise_a]

Much as I would like to drop a category, I'm realistic enough to know that dropping from 10 to 5 isn't going to happen, So I have gone for other just get the handicap as low as I can.

Handicap down to single figures

Thanks,

2016 will be my first full year as a golfer. I'm looking to start scoring rounds that actually register on the handicapping side of things... so under 28 over par. I hope to have some lessons, lots of practise, and a bit of luck!

For me it is to enjoy the Trump trip next year.

Have you seen who else is going ?

Other
As always Rule 1 is to play as much as possible and enjoy it
But next year I do have a "first" that will happen.

I will play a Links course for the first time.

You do realise that means you have to drive out to the coast.

No golfing resolutions for me, just more of the same.

Drop handicap category - Cannot go lower
Play new courses - Off to Belek in March
Join a club - Already a member
Win a medal or club championship

Try get back into cat 1 play more and practice more. Moved to a course closer to home so might help

Play as much as I can at as many different courses as I can.
Enjoy meeting new people
Get the handicap down to single figures
Learn how to pitch and chip properly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Going on my first golfing holiday abroad with 15 other blokes so looking forward to that.
Im actually going to travel less this year and play my new home course more I have no intention of playing my old course.

I have a few forum meets lined up but much less than the year just gone.
I cant retain my Club champs as I believe it clashes with the holiday.

Need to get to the elusive Cat1

Other for me ,i need to get back to fitness so i can start playing again ,i havent played since my accident in august,not likely to until at least march at the earliest.

Loads of things really without anything specific; play as much as possible, help junior to get better, win a trophy, try some new courses, play for the club as much as possible, get down to naught point something. Same old stuff for aims but little of it matters, just happy to be playing tbh.

Not good news. When do you find out if you need another one?

I see the the surgeon who did the original op again on the 8th feb next year,i have got to have an ultra scan between now and then ,the result of which will determine wether i need the op or not. so its fingers crossed.

Hope it works out and the scan reveals no need for the second op. Even so, hope the second one fixes it and you'll be back in time for summer sun on your back

 

[Norrin Radd]

no chance of an early return if i need the second op.
been told i would be off work for a year .the op would be a major rebuild of the muscles in my right thigh.

That's rough.

Drop in handicap ; spent some time figuring out my weak points after a string of .1,s , took tips off 2 higher handicappers . 1 guy has a magic short game . other guy great at putting so ive been working on them during our winter league .. very confident in my ball striking so looking forward to improving even more & building on that & be ready when qualifiers kick in .. seems so far away at min tho ..
