Play better alone than in company?

[ronaldkuntoro]

Golf courses around me always join golfers in flight of 4..... even when you only come with a buddy. I takes longer when you play in 4. Especially when someone keeps losing the ball in the water hazard.... It also makes us losing focus because we jokes so much....

I prefer to play alone when practicing. I get to see the yardage more carefully...

I've been golfing since August and the past few weeks I've been spending a lot of time at the local par 3 course. I've gotten my 9 hole scores down from the mid to high 40s (cringe) to where I average 39 or 40. My best 9 holes ever was 33.

Well i think Alot Of People Feel The Same Way, Cause If Ur Playing With Sum1 Ur Think Where Is There Ball And I Dont Want 2 Be 2 Slow And So On, I Like Playing Infront Of A crowd I think I just Like 2 Show Off Thats All ha

Playing alone or in a group you need a routine, on the 1st tee decide where and how your going to play the ball.
Going to your ball relax,take mental notes for your next shot. Look for the
200/150 yrd marker. know your distance by the time you get to your ball, when at the ball look at your lie,look, what club do you need or is the lie ok to hit any club? Now focus,forget eveyone around you. focus on the shot you want to hit,pick the club, take a couple of practice swings, line up and hit YOUR shot. From arriving at the ball to hitting less than 3min if you have no trouble to figure out of. When you get to the green start looking at the lay of the green then get behind your ball and start reading your putt, when it's your turn you should be ready to make a good stroke.
