Golf, Have Fun or Quit!
I played in the 1st round of the GSWGA tournament today. There are over 200 women playing in this tournament and I am in the 15th of 22 flights. I have a 24 handicap that was a 17 not that long ago. Unfortunately I am a fair weather golfer so I am not consistent at all.
Today I started my round with 5 straight pars! I was amazed although I admit I have really been practicing hard for this tournament. The women I was playing with accused me (jokingly) of being a sandbagger. I was hitting beautiful drives, hybrids, and pitches. I even putted well. I know I've got game but I can't seem to hold it together.
I kept telling the ladies the true me would come out eventually and did it ever. I ended up with a 42 on the front and a 51 on the back. I even missed a one foot putt after seeing two others miss easy putts and commenting that I would probably miss this one too.
Just venting....wish I could BELIEVE in myself more...
