I was thinking about my golf ceiling today (how good can I eventually get?) and figured I am probably not alone. I almost broke 100 (101 and 100) so I think it is safe to say I will eventually break 100. If I take some lessons and continue to progress, I think in a year or two I might be able to break 90. Given my age and available time to dedicate to my obsession, I think anything better than that might be pushing it. My personal best might one day be 85 or so at my home course. That's probably it. I will never be a scratch golfer or break par for 18, but that's okay. I feel it is about enjoying the journey, and not so much about the destination. Besides, the day I hit 85 I will probably try in vain to get back there for years after. I guess I choose to enjoy the ride up the mountain because the other side won't be great once I get to the top. So my ceiling might hit in a few years, maybe a bit more. I am 51 so after that physical issues might slow any progress.
What is your ceiling? Why do you think that's as far as you can go, and how long do think it will take you to get there?
