I’ve recently gotten back into golf after taking about a decade off. I’ve taken some lessons, but still feel like I need some time out on the course alone to do some fine tuning and gain some confidence being out there. I’ve never gone out alone before, but definitely think it would be helpful before meeting up with friends and family for a round. Does anyone on here golf alone? I’ve been hesitant to book a tee time, because I really don’t want to be paired up with a group and negatively impact their game. Any tips or words of encouragement would be appreciated! Although I did golf in the past, I would definitely consider myself a beginner, especially after my lessons revealed a lifetime of bad habits I’m working against.
Getting in some twilight rounds might be your best bet. Get to the course a couple hours before sunset and walk 9. You can play until you can’t see any more as long as you don’t have a cart out on the course.
If you take a cart, the boys in the cart barn probably won’t love this strategy
This is 100% of my golf, so I doubly recommend this. It’s cheaper, and way more casual. I kinda hate regular golf. Plus 5 hours of golf is way too much, but I’m probably in the minority there.
I like about 2.5 hours of golf. I just would like to be able to play 18 in that amount of time
Great advice, thanks!
Not OP but I am using this advice whenever I get the courage to hit the course my first time.
