The golf grind is no joke.
I first started just over a year and a half ago. Im usually pretty competitive and always played sports growing up,never settling for mediocre. I hate to lose but this game is interesting in where you could choose not to compete with anyone else but yourself.
When i first tried playing i realized this sport is not like throwing a ball or kicking a ball. Its a game of timing,precision as well as a game of mental strength and being honest with yourself. The learning curve in this sport is very long, life long even. I realize now why many dont try to learn. It takes alot of grinding on the range and the putting green. Finally i have hit a point in my game where things are clicking and im able to really enjoy it instead of feeling frustrated and disappointed. I wish everyone would try golf even if its just once....

Ever hear that old saying in golf that "practice makes permanent."? You can play better on the golf course by practicing on the range with focus and meaning. Good practice habits on the range should lead to better drives, pitches and chips during tournaments or just fun rounds with your friends having a few laughs. Plan practice sessions at the driving range to make effective use of your time. With an hour or two to practice, focus on swings with a wedge, short iron, hybrid and driver. Make every shot matter. Don`t hack through a bucket of 100 balls. Get a bucket of 50 balls instead and play each shot as if you`re on the golf course. Play the driving range as if it`s a golf course. After a warm-up period, hit a series of shots as you simulate playing a par-4 hole. Start with a driver, followed by a short iron and then a wedge to a simulated green. Then start again with the driver.
Always try to emphasize quality over quantity during practice on the range.

The best thing about watching the @pgatour is that front row seats to watch the GOAT, @tigerwoods, only cost a few bucks. #changethinkgolf #ctg

Golf is different. It is a game of honor and integrity. When a golfer breaks a rule, they are expected to penalize themselves. Golfers don’t need umpires or referees.
Being a golfer is more than learning how to hit a golf ball. It is a contest, a series of challenges, between you and your most difficult opponent: yourself. When a child learns to play golf correctly, they, almost without realizing, develop valuable skills that they will use throughout their lives on and off the golf course.
The Sixtyone Golf Academy is a golf introduction, development, and integration program. It is designed to help remove barriers to playing golf, the real ones and the ones we perceive.
Sixtyone reaches out from the golf course and connects young people with the positive aspects of golf. The traditions and culture of the game do the rest.
How it works
The Sixtyone Golf Academy has three phases. Each phase helps guide students on their journey as young golfers. The pursuit takes them from hacking at golf balls in their backyards and school playgrounds to becoming complete and independent young golfers.
Students begin online and on school campus. They learn why golf is different than other sports, and that hitting a golf ball is fun.
Welcome to Golf | Rules, Etiquette & Proper Behavior | Golf Quirks, Traditions & Culture | Your Golf Heritage.
Students who accept the challenge and their responsibilities move to the golf course and begin the transition into young golfers.
Practice Area (Self-awarenes & Self-improvement) Keeping Score (Strategy & Managing Obstacles) | Course Management (Etiquette & Culture) | Fun (Enjoyment & Mental Fitness).
Students who successfully complete an Academy program become members of the Sixtyone Country Club and connected with a support network willing to share time, treasure and expertise to help them integrate as far into golf culture as they desire.
