Hey all!

Found it just as well to stop lurking and becomming a member here (since I just keep coming back and soaking up some good advice and wibes from the great community).

Here in sweden most part of the country is still frozen up and most of the country still has snow, (some of the southern part have just begun to defrost), so reading and watching some great golf atleast keeps the loonging in check until the premiere :)

About me then.

Just turned 30, and started playing golf in the summer 2012, and is atm at an 26,1 hcp, but steadily going down, and trying to plan for 2-3 rounds a week for the season to come.

Working as a consultant engineering-surveyor at one of the leading firms in sweden since 2011.

When not working or golfing, I´m found at the waterfront fishing, or in the forrest hunting. The time I´m left with i spend with my dog(s) training tracking and rescue-seeking.

Looking forward to keep hanging around the community!

Thanks!

It varies quite alot depending on where in sweden you´re at (long country with very varied nature). But generally what is found in most parts is roe-deer, moose, hare, fox, pigeon, ducks and lynx.

In southern/middle you also find wild boar, fallow-deer, red-deer, pheasant and rabbit. More to the middle and north there is rock- and willow ptarmigan , capercaillie, black grouse and bear.

+ quite alot more, those are just the ones I took from mind and (with a few exeptions) what i´ve hunted.

    • Thats the second hardest hole so bogey is ok. How do you do on the number 1 hardest hole?
    • Ah, target golf off the tee and all the way to the hole always grinds my gears, This is not a terribly long hole so here's my two cents: Job #1 is to put yourself in play. Job #2 is to keep yourself in play. If hitting a driver is such a crap shoot then you are already betting on lower than 50-50 odds. Hit a hybrid and take your chances with a long iron, punch or whatever. Stick to your plan and accept your result knowing you did. 
    • Ah, got it.  Yeah I'd just play it for bogey. Even as a low handicap I wouldn't be all that upset with a bogey on that hole. 
    • Haha I made a I typo. I was thinking two things at once, ‘I don’t think bogey is a bad score’ and ‘I think bogey is a great score’. But I mixed them up and said the opposite 
    • How isn't bogey a great score? As a 20 handicap every single time you make a bogey you are playing better than expected. Because if you bogeyed every hole you'd most likely be lower than a 20. You're a high handicap playing a hole that is lined with hazards the entire length of it on both sides.  Bogey is a very solid score for you on that hole.  From 300yds off the tee PGA tour players average 3.71 strokes to hole out. As a high handicap you are going to be more than 1 full stroke higher than that, probably closer to 2 full strokes higher.  If you had 100 different 20 handicaps play that hole I would bet a lot of money that the scoring average is greater than 5.0 Sometimes courses have really hard holes. Play for your bogey, be ecstatic about a par, and do everything possible to minimize double bogey.
