Handicap 11.4

I started playing golf a bit late, but immediately got hooked, I was about 25 years old at that time. In the beginning it was just Pay and Play which is a good way to see if you are a golfer.

In 2006 at the age of 28 I joined a 2 month beginners course at Grenaa Golf Club where I attended training lessons once a week and played 9 holes on the course once a week. Later that year I became member of the Aarhus Aadal Golf Club because of the drive to Grenaa was too time consuming when living in Århus.

How to track it

  • Do statistics on every round using a simple piece of paper designed for collecting stats.
  • Time spent on practicing has to be used wisely in order to gain process and results:
    50% on shortgame incl. putting (0-50 meters)
    25% on shortgame (51-100 meters)
    25% on driving range.
