Nothing will build your game and your confidence as well as playing more golf. The more you play golf, the more comfortable you will become with your own game. Once you understand your game, you will be able to work on it and improve it. An example of this would be: Not everyone can expect to hit the ball twice and be on the green of a par 4 hole. Even though this is what is expected of a par 4 hole. Rather than getting upset with yourself when you have not reached the green on a par 4 in 2 shots, accept it and maybe look at a par 4 hole as it will take me 2 shots to get as close as I can to the green and I will improve my short game so I can chip it close and make the one putt for a par. You would only realize this by playing more golf and truly knowing your game and how to work with your own game. Knowing your game in this example has accomplished a number of important things for yourself and your golf game. It has shown you where you want to start working on your game to improve. In this example, you have decided to improve your short game first. This also should allow you realize what one of your future goals will be. One of your future goals should be for you to improve on getting to the green in the regulation more often. Last and very important it has shown you how you should be thinking about your game at this time. You have recognized and accepted your weakness and you now have a plan on working with your weakness. Just look at what you have discovered about you and your golf game just by playing more.

Look at what we have found. This program has nearly 4,000 golf courses in the United States and Canada to play golf at discounted rates. Unfortunately for us, the program has no courses in The Netherlands. We checked for the Akron area in Ohio and found over 35 courses in the program. This looks like a great way to play golf at a lower price.

The way I played more golf was once in a league during the week and always on Sunday. A golf league is great for a number of reasons. First the league will get you playing golf at least once a week and it is a great way to meet others players. Second, the golf league will keep track of your handicap for you. Yes we can all keep track and maintain our own handicap, but the golf league will do it for you every time you play. I know from keeping all of my own statistics that it is hard to record one of your rounds that you played badly. I always felt that the handicap that I established in my golf league was my true handicap. You must play the leagues rules compared to playing whatever other rules you play on your own. I am sure that everyone knows what I mean. There is no such thing as a mulligan in a golf league. A golf league is a great way to play more golf and learn how to play the game with the rules of the game.
