Only planned on hitting a bucket tonight but whaddua know, they picked up all the balls and are planning on mowing the range in the morning (this was around 7 or so). This is a local semi-dive but hey this is where I get it done sometimes!

Anywho, I decide to walk 9, by myself and the 17 yr old kid working says "just go for free man." AND I'M OFF LIKE A PROM DRESS.

When is the last time YOU walked 9 holes by yourself? I actually really enjoyed it. Some weird me and the golf course one-on-one type of thing :rolleyes:

I prefer to play golf by myself or at least with strangers. For me to score well i have to be in my own little world. I've noticed when i play with friends i don't focus as much.

Me and a course one on one is what's it all about for me. Or maybe i'm just a loner when it comes to golf.
 
I walk 9 every morning before going to work except on Sunday.
It is peaceful and I enjoy being out. Plu sit helps you to lose weight that is why I started walking, but now I am "hooked".
 
I've always played better alone. When I play with somene else, particularly better players (which has been just about everybody up to this point), I always worry about hitting bad shots and slowing play. It's amazing how mental this game is.

I used to go out in the winter and walk 9 holes. You must walk when it 35 degrees just to stay warm. I hit my longest drive ever in the winter. Cut the dogleg bounced right off the frozen pond to just in front of the green.

I go once or twice a week to play 9 by myself. I use it to learn shotmaking. I usually hit two balls and play the worst one. If it isn't "bad" enough, I throw it into trouble, then try two different shots to find out the best way to recover from different situations. It also helps a lot with trajectory control. Often my choices are a very high traj or a very low one. sometimes it's slice or hook.

I usually then toss the ball off of any green I hit and find the short game shots that I find the most difficult and find ways to play them.

I would recommend this for anyone. It is great fun.
