Can I do it?

[samburk]

I am 14 and currently play off a handicap of 21. Last year I had a month when I played the golf of my life and could consistently play to around 15 - played to 11 once. A year on I am hitting the ball further but am spraying a few crucial shots all over the place. I plan to practice like mad throught the summer hoildays as I'll be able to get up to my local club most days then. I want to get down to single figures. Do you think this is possible?

Im 15 and shoot around PAR - +5 consistently and when I was 14 I came from a 15 handicap down to a 9 now my handicap is around 5 I am hopeing to get to scratch this year and in my summer holidays I just play, play and play more golf! There is no better way of gettign better than playing on the course ALL THE TIME! It helps you in all different areas instead of being on the range all the time trying to hit the perfect straight shot. I remember last summer me and my friends were playing 27-45 holes a day! Crazy but fun :-)!

And play in LOTS of competitions.

It's possible, the key is to use your time practicing wisely. figure out what you need to work most on and spend your time improving in those areas. Also realize that if you are going to make a big change wether in your swing, how you handle certain short shots, working the ball etc. it may take a while before it starts showing up in your scores.
