Title: Consistency
Category: like playing 36 holes
Blog Entry: I have been playing a lot of golf lately. 3-4 rounds a week, I have also thrown in a few hours of practice between rounds. My scores have all been with in 4 strokes of each other per round, and I have been breaking 80 a little more often. So I have to guess that consistent play. and practice breeds consistent scoring. Not big news, as we all know the more we play/practice the better our golf game becomes. I read that the pros put in many hours every day either practicing, or playing. Someone posted that VJ puts in many 12 hour days working on his game. Tiger says he (when healthy) works on a specific part of his game every day his personal or non golf working schedule permits. I once asked Tom Watson how much he practices. He told me that in his younger days he devoted 50-60 hours a week to his game. So what are your opinions on how well a person can learn to play while playing 1 or 2 rounds a week, with say 2 hours of practice time thrown in between rounds? What about the golfer who only plays once a month. What should he, or she expect out of their game? I am going on a road trip to Wyoming next week, and plan on playing 3 rounds of golf on 3 courses I have not seen before. Since I am playing pretty well right now, it will be fun to get on an unknown track to see just how well I can play. FHs
