Share Your 2025 Golf Goal

I played a lot of golf in 2024 (70+ rounds) and my game improved (from a 10.5 to 8.5 index), broke 80 for the first time (4 times). I am practicing on a Sim this winter, using the Stack System and taking a lesson to keep improving. My goals for 2025 are: 1. Play 52+ rounds a year 2. Practice twice for every one round 3. Play in more tournaments to challenge myself under pressure 4. Stay committed to my process 5. Have fun!

Break par twice, by improving my focus in the “play box”.

Play 10 new courses Play 40+ rounds of golf (inc 9 holes) 10 rounds with no doubles (18 holes only) Break Par 3 times Half handicap from 2.2 - 1.1 Birdie every hole at my course Win a competition Have 3 x birdies in a row But the most important goal... keep going to golf with my daughter (age 5). Putting green, followed by juice and crisps :)

In 2025 I am beginning my quest to become a golf rules official. I just finished reading the rule cover-to-cover for the second time. I am taking a two-day seminar in February with my regional golf association and then enrolling in the USGA's three-day seminar afterwards. Will be curious to what some of the first events I will get to work once qualified.

I want to have the balls to replace my putter and driver which I've had since 2004. They've served me well but it was time many years ago to make some changes. I also hope to play 1000 holes in 2025 (thanks Celia K) which should include at least 360 with my 9 year old.

My goal for 2025 is the same as the last 3 years, to play more golf. This year I’ve decided to challenge myself to go to the course once a week to either practice or play. So, if it goes as planned, I will have at least 52 golf interactions in 2025 vs less than 10 each year for the last 3. So far I’m on track, 2 for 2 🤣😂

It’s funny that this popped up here as I have just recently had this discussion with my instructor. I have played golf for a while now, and in another (responsibility free) life I played to a 4 handicap. I am currently sitting at a 10.2 but I would like to get back to that level. I suppose this is probably a goal to aim for over the next couple years as there is almost zero chance I get there in the next 12 months, but it is my current goal nonetheless.

A few college buddies and I did our first golf trip together last year (we stayed at Lawsonia and played both courses twice over 2 days). My golf goal this year is making that happen again. It's a small goal, but I think in a time when we're getting busier in our lives and we live in a world where less and less young men have close friends, it's important to me to make this an annual event.
