My Thoughts on Golf


MY WIFE AND I ARE SENIOR GOLFERS, WE USUALLY PLAY TWICE A WEEK. I AM STILL EMPLOYED FULL TIME AND SHE IS RETIRED. WE ARE MEMBERS OF A SMALL GOLF CLUB IN NORTH WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA. FROM THE WHITE TEES THE COURSE PLAYS ABOUT 6100 YARDS AND I RECENTLY SHOT BELOW MY AGE WITH A 71, I WAS 72 AT THE TIME.

WITH SOME COAXING FROM FRIENDS I HIT MY FIRST GOLF BALL WHEN I WAS 54. I’VE NEVER HAD A LESSON AND MY HANDICAP IS IN THE SINGLE DIGITS. I WILL NEVER FIT IN THE POWER HITTER CLASS SO MOST OF MY SCORING IS WITH 215-220 YARD DRIVES, CENTER OF THE FAIRWAY AND FAIRLY ACCURATE IRON PLAY. I USE ADAMS IDEA 0S3 COMBO HYBRID IRONS, COBRA 12 DEGREE DRIVER AND 3 & 5 FAIRWAY WOODS. MY THREE MAJOR THOUGHTS AT ADDRESS ARE:

#1 ALIGNMENT

#2 GRIP

#3 TEMPO

I FEEL LIKE THESE ARE THREE THINGS THAT MAKE MY GOLF GAME CONSISTENT.
