I wanted to start this up but wasn't sure of where. I feel comfortable on these forums to post what I think about my game and some of my thoughts/feelings towards my game and the game of golf itself and I just wanted to come back and update this through the summer to keep in touch...
My Journey begins soon..
Well for introductions I just turned 20 on the 9th of this month and am in my 2nd year of college and am at the tale end of my semester and it just happens I got a job at a local golf course(private course, maple dale country club dover de) and lucky enough that its a great place and will be great for my practice for what I'm about to do.
Browsing through these forums and not always posting I have come across some great tips and have tried to use them the best I can. And I'm using this thread because I want to play collegiate golf(but my current school doesn't offer it) and I made the decision last year that I wanted to play in some tournaments across the state and up my game and make sure I was prepared for them. As a kid I played in two and enjoyed it but as I got older I chose baseball over golf in high school and once I graduated I went back to golf. And while I am pretty nervous I know I can't be and just have to start getting ready
There are atleast two qualifiers I'll be in, the amateur one and the Delaware open qualifier. Of course i'll be disappointed if i don't make it but I feel confident enough to play in these and atleast compete. Which at this point is all I'm after and just want to get my feet wet again.
I'll be updating this on my rounds that I play and what I need to work on and such. I would really, really appreciate any info and any advice. Anything would be helpful. Thanks.
EDIT: Oops, forgot to say what I shoot and such. I normally hit less than 85 but since the year began I have been shooting 82s and 83s. I have shot an 80 before but never broke it and I know i'll need to break 80 in order to compete. Most times I don't break 80 due to a double bogey or two which mainly is due to bad first/second shots as my up&down game is right on.
