Making A Major Milestone At The Grateful Golfer Golf Blog

/ The Grateful Golfer / 8 Comments

It finally happened a few days ago. The Grateful Golfer golf blog reach the major milestone of 1 million visitors. This was an original goal I set from when first started writing back in May of 2012. As you know, this golf blog was set up to allow me to manage my critical life event (twice actually) and to expand my thoughts on a passion that is ever growing. I am not bragging, but highlighting my gratitude to all the readers who graced the musing of an amateur golfer trying to navigate the challenges on and off the golf course.

I want to thank everyone for allowing me to share a small part of your day and will rededicate my time to writing more about this amazing sport. I am blessed in many ways and reaching this amazing milestone helps fuel my desire to continue sharing my musings on a regular basis. Thanks again for all the support!

As your golf season starts to ramp up (for those of us in the northern climes) it will be time to set some goals moving forward. This is aways the first step for my golf season and I plan to follow the same successful path. Last year, I missed about eight weeks of my season due to medical challenges, but this year I am ready to take a full swing at improving my game. As I trundle down my path this year, I hope you will continue to stay with me and share in the trials and tribulations of my game.

I am a grateful golfer! See you on the links!

Sometimes my musing are informative and others…..well, thanks for putting up with my diatribes. With over 1.2 million views ant 800k visitors, I must be doing something right. This year will be my best yet and I am grateful for all the support from you the readers. Unfortunately, finding something to write about that is golf relate is a challenge. Especially since my golf season has ended and I have transitioned to coaching high school basketball. Regardless, I sit down everyday and amble through the golf topics trying to find something to share. Well, today I could not find anything specific to write about except this:

How To Keep Motivated When We Cannot Play Golf

/ The Grateful Golfer / 6 Comments

I can honestly say that it is a challenge to find something to write about when we are in lock down for another two weeks. We were lucky enough to play two rounds in early April, but since all I have to dwell on are my memories of playing golf. I realize that I am in the same boat as many Ontarians, yet it is starting go get a bit monotonous waiting for the courses to open. The real draw back is that I think I am running out of material to write about!

What is Important To Your Golf Game?

/ The Grateful Golfer / 2 Comments

I hope that a alll the readers at The Grateful Golfer can get the feeling that I try to share as much of my knowledge, experience, and ‘trial and error’ success as possible. It is the other main reasons I started writing about golf; to help other like minded golfers shorten their learning curve in order to be the best golfer they can be every time they step up to the first tee. I was thinking about my articles (all 2491 of them) and I realized that my musings might be limited because of my perspective; sometimes I am so focused on my game, I forget that my topics might not be applicable to players with higher handicaps. This does make me wonder.
