When I was in high school I played on the school team and I worked at a course for 3 years so I got to play for free at least 5-6 rounds a week. My best round was an 81. When I went to college I pretty much quit playing because I was broke and was used to playing golf for free, so I just could not make myself pay to play. Now I've been out of school and in the working world for a while and realized I needed a hobby or I was going to go crazy. I decided to start playing golf again about 5 months ago and caught the bug bad. The only thing is I'm horrible now. So my goals are:
1) There's something fundamentally wrong with my swing that I want to get fixed. Even when I swing 100% and catch the ball solid it doesn't go as far as it should. I think I'm decelerating somewhere but can't figure it out. I've never taken a lesson so that is my first goal to work with a teacher on getting my swing fundamentally sound
2) My best round since I started again is a 94. I want to get back into the 80's before the year is out.
3) When I get the first two goals accomplished I will let myself get new clubs but not until then. I feel like I don't deserve new clubs yet.
