Lessons I Learned in Golf.... Part One

golf tips and tricks mental hurdles of golf

It’s ok to ask for help when you aren’t sure about a rule. Just ask BEFORE you take action!!
Keeping up pace of play and having a good attitude is all that matters.
Some women won’t be your cup of tea but I know for sure that A LOT of them will be! Don’t let one person sour your enthusiasm for the game.
If you are unsure about the dress code, call the ProShop ahead of time and ask. I have been called out 3 times that I can remember and have had to buy a shirt at the ProShop to comply .
Just because you had a good round today does not mean you will shoot the same score tomorrow. Golf is an endless score roller coaster.
Your handicap is your POTENTIAL, not what you are supposed to shoot every time.
Some rounds are more serious than others, and that’s ok! Those serious rounds will make you better competitive golfer. I was HORRIBLE the first year I consistently played tournaments. It takes time and experience to build up a tournament player BUT tournaments are the most fun so it’s worth it!
It’s hard to win a tournament without making putts. Practice your putting!!!
Record every score. You are only hurting yourself if you don’t. Don’t let your ego get in the way of your handicap.
Every time I’ve thought a slump would never end.... it did. Don’t give up.
