Mine are:
1) Win a comp at my new club
2) Try win a medal (this has being a big goal of mine for years)
3) Win a boards outing and make the team on my own merits
4) keep compressing the ball and taking divots
5) keep working on chipping have improved a good bit
6) HC @ 17.6 im well able for 14 but just want it down to be honest
7) break 80 (being very close a few times)
I have a big golfing year ahead of me and I am going to enjoy every minute of it good or bad.
1- Done had 1 and a good few 2nds & 3rds
2- Failed. But next year is our year ahem.. I mean my year
3- Didnt win a outing came 2nd or 3rd in Portmacnock I think did make the team on my own
though. so half done. lol..
4- Failed. Started off well but lost it but lost it during the summer back to a better strike with
lessons & a handy training aid. Just need plenty of reps & practise.
5- Have improved more work needed though.
6- Hc got down to 17.2 but sadly went back out to 18.2 but my bad days are a lot better and
understand my swing and misses a lot more.
7- Know where near didn't break 90 much.. lowest was 85 but never went over a 100 even
on really bad days when I lost interest. But my new course is a lot tougher than my old as
you really need to get off the Tee.
Overall I didnt have a great year golfing score wise but I did really enjoy the year. So many memories! St Andrews was a unbelievable experience and the laugh and craic was unreal! One of the best holidays I ever had cant wait for Portugal. I really enjoyed my year as Captain of the boards society even though it was a bit stressful but have to say absolutely loved it! some great memories and new friends made who are as crazy about this game as me! which will make me enjoy next year even more! I have some great memories from the year on a golfing front that will last me a life time!0 -
Play junior cup
Play jimmy Bruen
With whatever time I have left play the number of comps I need to play to keep an active handicap
Hopefully make a boards outing
I was on the junior cup panel but well down the list of competitors
I was asked to play bruen but turned it down, was playing no golf at the time.
I did manage to play about 15 comps though and kept my handicap active lol
Didnt make a boards outing 0 -

- Cut my handicap by at least 3 points. This will be tough, as i stayed at 17 last year, but i'm confident i'll be able to do after sorting out some issues in my game, and once i get back to playing regularly.
Nope, stayed at 17 all year round. Would have gone up if i'd played more. - Win my first competition. Was beaten on the back 9 at the start of last year, before my game went to ****, so i'd like to win something this year.
Came 2nd in a 12 hole comp in Feb, but that was as good as it got. - Fix my short game, as anything withing 50 yards is a hit or miss currently. Need to be putting myself in a position to hole my putts.
My putting is getting quite good, but my approach play is awful. Probably the area i need to improve the most. - Play some new courses, as i haven't really experienced many of the courses around Ireland.
Got a fair few new courses played with the boards soc, and looking forward to even more next year. - Have a good first drive in our yearly trip to Enniscrone. 3 times last year i ****ed it up, and can't have that happen again :pac:
This one i actually nailed. 3 drives, 3 middle of the fairway. Rest of the rounds were ****e, but that didn't matter :P
Mainly, just get more games played.
I also didn't reach most of my goals. Started out well enough, but lack of a car for most of the year meant i was relying on lifts, and didn't get much chance to play in the 2nd half of the year.
Planning on really going for it in 2020 though, with much more play and practice time. We moved house, and I'm about 6 minutes from new course, and 11 minutes from a driving range that is open early and late, so i will spend a fair bit of time there. Gonna get myself a few lessons first thing in Jan too, so i have the right things to practice.
Roll on 2020
