Slight Revelation

[BillyG]

Something interesting I noticed my last time out. I just started really playing this summer, and have played 9-hole rounds about 8 times in the last few months before the sun started getting too low to try to get out after work. Anyhow, me and my buddy were out on the course a couple of weeks ago, and I noticed that the greens didn't seem nearly as far away as they had when I first would go out there. There are a couple of holes where you have to carry a creek. Last time out, I was looking at the fairway right across the creek, and thought it amazing how close it's getting now.

Does this make sense to any of you?

I just thought it was neat.

You're probably starting to hit it farther so you're measuring things in comparison to how far you can hit. Or you're getting used to the course and I don't know, maybe it just is getting into perspective for you.

As your developing as a golfer, your distance and consistency increases and as a result your confidence increases too. The distance looking shorter is probably a result of the increased sense of confidence in your own game.

Ha! Can't say that I've changed my prescription lately.
