We know that golf is an individual game, but there is no sport on earth more sociable.
Most sports don’t give you a chance to socialize between shots. Could you imagine discussing your daughters upcoming wedding plans between shots on a tennis court? And not only that, almost always the person that is closest to you on the playing field in other sports is your competitor. Though this can be true in golf, it can also be that he or she is your teammate as well.
The best way to get the most out of your game is to join a golf club. The Northern California Golf Association establishes handicaps for thousands of golfers, so we can all compete on a level playing field. Check with a golf course near you to see if they have a local men’s or women’s club that you can join. This puts you in contact with other players who are looking for a social round just like you. Most of them have a tournament or outing schedule that allows you to compete in different formats both individual and team. Some take trips to other area course with a large group much like a field trip for adults.
No matter what club you join, this will take your game and why you play it to a whole new level. You will improve simply by playing more regularly, and you will meet new people to share this great game with.
