Have Fun!

Set out a preshot routine you want to focus on and execute that everyshot.

Sticking to a preshot routine is one of the few things you have control over in the game so make the best of it!

I always expect the worst, that way I'm usually always positively surprised.

Just do what you have always done, it's the same game. Though I would advise taking some time on the range and practice green. If I don't play for a couple of weeks my timing is a bit rusty for the first 10-40 shots. If I can get those out of the system by the time I tee up the first ball I'm much better off.

Also, don't try to be a hero. You've got a hcp of 30, play like you try to use 2 shots extra on every hole, maybe except the par 3's, you can't afford a double on all 18. On a par 5, go for the green in 4-5. A long par 3? Definately go for the green in 2. Don't use the clubs you have problems hitting, play it safe.

I wouldn't expect anything. I'd go out there and play golf for what it is. A game.

I couldnt imagine going a few months without playing - I go play friday afternoons to make sure I am warmed up for the whole weekend. If I go 6 days without playing I am seriously struggling on the 1st 3 holes.

Meenman... Funny coincedence, This past Wenesday after walking off the fourth green and finally marking a good score I turned to my partner and said: "that's it... from now on before I play a real course again, I'm going to play the first three holes at my exec course..."

I ordered a Chicken and an Egg on the Internet, to find out which came first... I'll keep you posted!
