Hi Everyone,

My name is Steve Basson and I'm a professional golfer from Cape Town, South Africa. I've been playing on the local Sunshine Tour here in South Africa for 13 years and I've also played in some tournaments on the European and Asian tours over the years.

I'm currently recovering from an injury and can't play golf for a few months, so I'm spending some more time online and decided to join The Sand Trap when I saw what a great community they had here.

I hope to make some new friends here and I'll definitely try to add some value where I can in the forum.

Best regards,

Steve

Sorry to hear about your injury, that must be incredibly frustrating. I hope your recovery goes well.

    • Day 343 - Mostly worked on pitching, but getting back to my full-swing work, as well.
    • Day 237 (26 Dec 24) - played 18 with niece and her husband at one of the local courses.  We were first out - so we pretty had our own pace of play.  First few holes were a struggle, but the groove started by hole 5.  The green side wedge game kicked in - had several kick in up and down pars.  Best of the day - had my first ever sandie birdie on #9. It’s a neat par three with a pot hole bunker - found it off the tee.  Had about a 22yd shot from the bunker to the flag.  Hit an easy shot out with the 54 that hit softly and gently rolled center cup.  Had several other close wedge shots into others that were close but no hole out.  Was a great day with the green side wedge game - and seeing solid fruit from the drills. 
    • Day 16: 12/26/2025 A little more mirror work today. Then out to the garage net.  The first part of my PPJ swing thought is really starting to stick. The J still takes some focus. Plus, I'm still putting a priority on getting all the way to my finish. 
    • Day 87 - 2024-12-26 Practiced for about an hour after doing a bunch of little maintenance things downtown.
