Brilliant. Hahahaha, they actually used to call me "AI" on my golf team.

Personally I think more than just beginners need range time. Everyone benefits from practicing. While there are a few guys on the Tour that don't like to practice I dare say they still do, plus they play a lot. I have a buddy who hates to practice so he rarely if ever does. I started playing with him when I was about a 10 handicap and he was around scratch. I am now scratch and he is a 2. I beat him just about every time we play. He just can't trust that swing to get it done when the chips are down because he doesn't hit enough balls. When the nerves start going if you have put in the time you can rely on that swing you have repeated over and over again to come through for you.

The only alternative to practicing is having the ability to spend a great deal of time on the course.

    • Completing your first 2 holes in 9 strokes then taking 48 to complete the next 7 is wild. 
    • I had some great moments today, but some garbage as well. Today was my first swing of any club this years.  Hit the range and simply pounded all but 1 shot on target with reasonable distance for me.     first hold wax aboar 5.  I crushed my drive and 3-hybrid and was 6” off the front in too.  Putting was lackluster and I got par 2nd hole par 4 intoning regulation but left my birdie putt 2 “ short, shells then fell off and finished the front 9 with a crappy 57. Back 9 was better with nothing worse than bogey on all holes until #16 when I took a 10 on a par 4. 🤬.  Finished ok and shot 51 on back 9. 108 is garbage but there were a lot of good shots so I have hope. I was frustrated that I ghought my Shot Scope was charged, it was not
    • I like Justin Rose and I wouldn’t mind seeing him win another major, I just didn’t want him to win this one 😃
    • I think Rose might have the most zeroed out putting stroke of anyone out there, although as golfing superpowers go that would be one of the most useless.
    • That pre-swing routine tho.. 🤓
