Golf is fun, but sometimes it's frustrated will let you out of interest or even quit. Sometimes people said practise make perfect, but in golf quality practise make perfect!

In Golf, It's a mind ...

I totally agreed it is a mind game. Sometimes, you don't expect you will play good (usually the first hole is NOT that good), but finally your score is pretty good. But when you want to try hard to get better score, then you have pressure and finally there will be so many stupid mistakes and the result is terrible

Do you have any golf fun stories for sharing

One Time, I was teaching my brother and a friend, My brother shank a ball and hitted my friend ass!

In the driving-range, it seems NOT possible unless both of them (maybe with you) all inside the swinginf area

Anyway, I hope your freind is OK, it is a sensitive body part

Lucky, I don't have any experience of being hit by the golf ball (or I have hit somebody). Touch wood

But my friend (together with me) had hit the caddy in China. When he tee-off in the longest tee (ususally in the back and you have to walk a bit behind), and the caddy is ready in the nearest place just away from the fairway. Unfortunately, my friend missed, and the ball is fired like the rocket and hit the caddy's arm. Her arm (the place is hit) immediately turned into the red and like a "BIG EGG". Lucky only hitting on the arm, not the head, otherwise.

Finally, the golf course sent the caddy to the hospital and lucky it is NO bone broken in her arm. Be careful, always

Halo, what is your handicap ?

You ask who

I think "hhkk"

Why handicap required

My Handicap is 3!  

Professional

Acutally, I have problem that I am not a long hitter, my No.5 iron club can only reach 150 yards only, and Driver is only approx. 210-220 yards only

I tried to adjust something,but even worse that I became not stable (I know it takes time, but not stable is so frustrated)

My handicap is 22, any suggestion

Hi hhkk,

Thanks for your opinion, I am actually changing my mind to forget the distance recently, it is a little better than before. You are correct, I am more concetrated to hit the ball solid, which can get better result

But as Bro Evo8 said, even though I keep telling myself it is par 5 instead of long par 4 to make myself more comfortable, but if really want to improve the handicap, it is frustrated that you can only 3 on if final approaching is OK, but if not maybe even 4 on with 2 putt or 3 putt, it turns out into +2 or even +3.

Anyway, I know it is mind game, but it's difficult to get away from mind evil

Especially I really want to upgrade my handicap below 20, it seems long way to go

Agreed

This Sat, I played in mountain course and I concetrated on the solid hitting. Maybe I am too concentrated, my driver becomes so terrible, I have missed 6 tee off out of 9 holes

Second 9 holes, I back to basic and trying to forget everything only playing. It seems getting better, but there are still 3 missing. The score is over 100

Good thing is I still got 2 par and 1 birdie which gave me energy

Last Sat, played again, the driver getting better, but the short game became worse..

I am trying to change my grip (to strong grip), it seems more solid but not stable (maybe still not used to it)

The final score is still over 100

Wow , u played every weekend .
Rich guy !

No la, only in KSC public course. But not every week, you know it is very difficult to get through the telephone booking system ( and it needs 1 week in advance).

How is your game, playing well recently

Hi kkwong7606,
Which one u play in ksc ? north or south ?
North is a good course but it is too tough for me.
My last game played at hillview A/D & sucks in sand traps !

I ususally play in KSC north which is more challenge and it is a nice course , but if I can't get the booking maybe South. Now South is NO good, because KSC is under construction for the new East course which should be opened by the end of 2007 or early of 2008. And South course is too close to the construction site and NOT good at this moment.

What is the Chinese name in Hillview (in SZ or other place)

Sand traps is always difficult, you have to find some professional (or very good skill people) to help you. Before, I was also in big trouble, and now I am quite confident get out of sand bunkers after the adjustment of the swing, etc.  

If you cannot mange the skill of getting out sand bunkers, it will limit your strategy in final approaching (or you are always thinking about sand bunkers too much).

North course is a very challenge course not only your skill but your body as well.
I remember that I need at least three bottle of water when I played in North during mid summer time.
Oh, also ne ...

Oh yes, especially after you have finished Hole 14 and walk a uphill to Hole 15 which can kill you. Normally, after we finished this uphill walk we need a break

During summer time, you must hire a Caddie unless you are fit guy Another good reason to hire a caddie is he can pick up some balls to compensate your loss

If fairway bunker (usually not deep) it is easy, you just lower your grip a little bit and your ball position is about 1" behind usual, and 3/4 swing, your ball can get back to fairway with some distance

If green bunkers, you MUST hit the sand which is approx. 1" to 1.5" behind your ball, the swing is difficult to say something easily here, it is better to ask some good skill guy practice with you in the driving range (with sand bunkers)

Of course, I am NOT the professional and hopefully it can help you a little bit.

I am barely to play at north course this two years,
as it is too tough for me now.
If hire a caddie, the total costs seems too much in a public course,
I rather to pay similar costs and play in  ...

Now KSC is getting better in the rough, lots of long grass has been cut (NOT so easy to lose the ball than before)

Marshall are NOT so chasing as before, but I have to say sometime really a problem for long waiting between hole to hole

Caddies is depending, some good one they are just picking too many balls for me (my bag became too heavy when I left), but some of them just carrying my bag only...

Last weekend played in KSC South Course (cannot get North course booking) and got a very good result

The score is 85 out of 67 (course standard should be 69, due to construction two Par 4 holes has been changed to Par 3 holes) which is +18 over, and got 2 birdies and 4 par..

One of the bridie is a 30 feet put which is so exciting..

I should have one more birdie but the ball is just stop at the edge (I have actually waited more than 10 seconds, but it didn't drop into the hole)..

The driver is more under control (only 1 missing), maybe due to South Course is not so much pressure to the player

If I can get same result (85 strokes) in North Course (course standard is 72), that will be wonderful..

85 - not bad in south .
Good game.

Thanks..but actually there is lots of Par 3 (total 6 out of 18 holes) make it more easier...

How is your game recently, you play well in your host land - DG? or other golf coursein  SZ?

Any brother has comment on the new Nike Sumo2 driver?

You want to change Nike driver I think Nike is NOT common golf equipment supplier, they just base on Tiger Woods name to promote their products..

Yes, R7 is good.

I am thinking about it....

But if R7 is good why you need to change..

I hope to hit farther. My R7 can carry 220-230 only. Not enough.

I can understand becasue I have same problem. But you are already better than me , my driver tee off is only approx. 210, far more than enough.....

I have already changed several driver, and I am starting to believe it is NOT the driver's problem

After 3 rounds, I can assure that the new Nike driver can hit farther and more straight than R7. I played 77 last weekend. It's the first time my score is lower 80. Very happy and happy with th ...

Oh, good job wor... I am struggle for this level, but sometime play and sometime stop which is NO good (especially NOT much practice in driving range ) I hope one day I can below 80

I think I should try Nike as well

Where(which course) you have played

If you do have time, share your experience in my post "KK Golg Blog" and leave your good record.
