This is a thread I used to do on GolfWRX and hope that it will help people here, too… I think it’s important to set year long goals, and then have a place to plot out how you are going to get from here to there…
My biggest goal for 2021 is simply to be healthier and be able to play golf again… I’m on month 5 of a back injury and very tired of it… I’m 39 and need to take better overall care of myself. I reached out to Mike Carrol and he recommended a nutritionist… I’m also going to get back into core work and walking to keep me healthier while recovering…
On the tangible golf side, I still really want to shoot a round of even par golf. It’s definitely an achievable goal for me, if I’m healthy. My biggest opportunity is my putting, which I’ve addressed at length.
So for January, I am:
Meeting with a nutritionist, cleaning up my diet and trying to focus on a healthy lifestyle for the entire month.
Getting fit for a Seemore putter, and hopefully getting some coaching while I’m there… If nothing else, I’m interested to see my SAM results.
If we have any decent weather, I’m going to start practicing putting more. Especially building a true putting routine to implement on the golf course. I’ll probably look like a crazy person as I hit one putt and then leave the practice green, but I’m OK with that.
New Year is always a good time to make plans, and start working on changes… What are your goals for 2021 and what are you doing to get there in January?
