Grateful Golfer
Golf Season Is Officially Here!
Guess which club The Grateful Golfer hit first in the 2016 golf season!
Golf season is officially here! Yesterday I hit the range and it was awesome. My wife joined me to make the start of the 2016 golf season more special. The sun was shining, the wind was down and my expectations were very low!
Yes, my expectations were very low. Each year, I try to start fast because of the short playing season in Canada. However this year, using my plan I stated yesterday, I have decided to start my golf season with the proper expectations! There is a difference between starting quick and starting right. This year, I am going the take the right path because I think it will pay off more dividends in the long run.
Golf Wisdom – Schooled By Experience
Golf is an interesting sport, the young seem to think they can dominate the wily veteran through sheer power, but I am not so sure. Bernhard Langer at this year’s Masters was schooling the young guns until the last round; although he had a tough last round, he did finish in T27, not bad for a 58-year-old! For the first three rounds, he used his guile, experience and confidence to stay in the hunt and that kind of golf wisdom is generally gained from experience.
This reminds me of a game of golf about 25 years ago that taught me many lessons I never want to repeat. The main lesson was to never underestimate my opponent, regardless of what they look like, swing, or equipment they use; and never think that you have them beat before you start to play!
