10 New Year’s Resolutions for every Golfer

1. Become a member of a club

Joining a club will help you save money on fees and also help you meet new people.

2. Plan a trip

Round up both your old and new golfer buddies, and take a well-deserved getaway.

3. Take at least one lesson to improve your greatest weakness

Focus in one area of your game that needs some extra attention. Whether it be chipping, pitching or driving, don’t hesitate to book a golf lesson.

4. Hole-in-one

This could be your year. With all the improvements you’ll be making, there’s no reason for you not to score that hole-in-one you’ve been dreaming about.

5. Lower score

It’s not just about having the perfect mechanics, work on strategy and decision making to bring your score down.

6. Not to dwell on mistakes

Don’t carry all your slip-ups with you to the last hole – play in the moment.

7. Get in shape

Golf shape that is. Focus on core strength and flexibility to improve your swing.

8. Drop your handicap

Set goals high (or in this case, low) to get your handicap down.

9. Play out of your comfort zone

We can’t help that we’re creatures of habit, but making a point to break it is the first step. Grab your mates or play a round on your own on a brand new course.

10. Practice, Practice, Practice

Find the time to hit the driving range. It might not be the most exciting part of golf, but consistency is important. Take the time to really work on your swing.
