That’s the interesting thing about golfers though… how many people do you know who are actually putting in real effort to get better?
At my home course, I know two guys who are putting in some amount of effort to improve and one of them mostly just bangs range balls and watches YouTube videos.
From there, I have a couple of buddies who take the occasional lesson when their swings start going off the rails…
Most of the people I know aren’t trying to learn new shots, change their approach to the course or dramatically improve on anything…
Some of them might try to buy a game though!
I do think golf is interesting in how people approach it… I think the vast majority just silo out golf as something they don’t have enough time to get better at and are happy to play their regular game and hopeful to plinko into a good score.
Obviously those of us here have a different mentality!
