Learning golf in all kinds of rain
I may have started golfing at a bad time, because I swear every time I go to the course I end up getting drenched in rain or being freezing cold. The alternative would be to go to an indoor miniature golf course but I don’t think they’ll appreciate me driving golf balls accross the entire room at 40 mph. I started wearing some rain coats but that really sucks just because they don’t really fit you right for golfing, it restricts my movement and I feel like I’m learning bad habits. I did some searching on google and found some links and information on golf rain suits that have really helped my game in bad weather conditions. Right now I’m going to the golf course enough that I don’t want to be held back by the weather.
I think that learning to play in all kinds of golf weather conditions is super important just because you never know what your’e going to need to play in if you go to a real match. It also adds a little fun dynamic to it simply because it’s not the usual thing that you’re doing. Anyway, I’ll continue to work on my swing and my distance especially (my accuracy is surprisingly good) and we’ll see how far I can go. Hopefully I have disrupted my form too badly from using crappy rain coats that restricted my movement. I swear the next day when I went I was still golfing like I was in a tight fitting jacket…not to mention I ripped a hole in the side when I followed through with my swing. I think that playing in strange weather has actually helped my game strangely enough. It’s like lif you can hit a ball accurately when the wind is blowing and rain is in your face then you can for sure do it on a dry and beautiful day.
I think overall I just need to get out as much as possible, not only does it improve my game but it’s a cool stress reliever and let’s me get away from regular things in life that I don’t like. I think half of golf is just enjoying myself outdoors and as time goes by and I get better that’s just an added bonus.
