This will be my attempt to chronicle my goal to become a scratch or + golfer by the end of 2012, and to eventually make
it through the PGA Tour Q-school.
Right now my Handicap is a 13.4. When looking at my golf
game objectively, I have to say that I can't find 1 part of my game that I stand out in. My driving is decent, but I
miss too many fairways. My Irons are really erratic, hit my 6 iron good, but have a really bad hook with my 5 iron.
Short game is really inconsistant. My putting is decent, now I'm down to 2 or 3 3-putts a round. Really need to
work harder on my lag putting.
My plan, much like the "Dan Plan", is to start
doing deliberate practicing to improve every part of my game. I usually try to put in 2 hrs a day of golf practice.
Out of this time I work on all 4 aspects of my game, putting, range work with the wedges and irons(odd numbered clubs 1 day,
evens the next), woods, and the short game.
I think i'll start hitting all my wedges and
9 and 8 irons daily, along with my driver and either 3 wood or 5 wood.
Nov. 21- No range
work today. played 9 holes @ Roosvelt Golf Course. Wasn't really able to keep my score as I was mapping the golf course
for my skycaddie SGX. Hit my 5wood pretty good, but my wedges sucked.
Nov. 22- No
range work again. I neeed to get back to it. Played 18 holes at Lost Canyons Shadow course. Shot a 89.
Irons were really bad and my putting was also bad. Tomorrw is a new day, so I can get out and practice like I should.
