Personal Narrative: My Response To Jilligan's Golf Association

So, you want to be better at golf you say? Well these are my most helpful steps in the process of learning this technique. Maybe you want to take a few strokes off your game or maybe you just want to be the next Tiger Woods. One of the most known golfers of all time was Arnold Palmer who changed the game with his techniques. He has a long standing position in the golf community with a count of sixty- two PGA Tour wins. He accounted all his success to the grip he possessed that his father had taught him as child. It was not just the grip though, Arnold figured out the mechanics of the game as well as the motions which gave him the power to succeed. These procedures will help any person no matter what their skill level is to become the next big thing. This knowledge I am about to pass down has been a process of mastering golf in a fifteen year span with help and information from other golfers I personally know. There are three main points that make mastering a perfect swing which are grip, club face, and the swing which will be told in a step by step process.

Arnold Palmer, who was an American professional golfer that is considered as one of the greatest players in the sport's history, once said “Success in golf depends less on strength of body more strength of mind and character”. Golf is an awesome discipline that challenges the mind and body, making people think of all the moves. Then I will tell you why golf is a patient and a mental game. It is a clean game where honesty and responsibility plays an important role in this game. Too many people play this game because it is a very popular sport and all over the world.

When I first came to Lake Highland in seventh grade my parents wanted me to be on a team to get to know people and the only sport I knew was golf. I came to the tryouts with no experience of tournaments, hammy down clubs from my sister, and not appropriate golf attire. I tried very hard for the team, but I did I didn't have the skills to make it on. It was very devastating for me because I have never been turned down before, but I knew that I had to change. After this failure I decided that I should try harder in golf. I never did take the sport seriously and barely practiced, but after being turned down I decided to step up my game. I started to practice harder and more often by my own choice. I also started to play in tournaments, which I

It just always seemed like something that I had to do. Ever since I was ten years old I’ve been playing, practicing, and talking about golf. I always have had a love for the game, but I never really thought about how stressful and painful it made my life. Even at ten I thought my future had already been planned for me. I was already thinking of life as a professional golfer. I was certain that I would go play golf for a big college, and instant fame would soon follow. It wasn’t until the last couple of years that life has changed for me.

I play golf for the pleasure of it; have been doing so for number years, as member, Sharjah Golf Club. I am proud of expertize I have acquired in it. It seems to be a game of hitting a dimpled white ball, placed on a holder, between relaxing walks, with a caddy in tow, whereas it requires knowledge of math, science, engineering and technology for one to be a ‘Tiger Woods’.

“Tweet Tweet,” screamed the birds as the sun smacked Tyler and me in the face with its Florida heat hotter than jalapenos.

You will never believe what I am about to tell you! I have been a golfer since I was in third grade. I took my first golf lessons at the age of eight, and then I took more lessons at the age of eleven. I have been golfing with my dad numerous times, which led to my love for the sport and my interest in continuing. Golf is special to me because it gives me the opportunity to gain more skills, have more patience and drive, and spend quality time with my dad.

No matter what through life everyone is going to face failure and everyone is going to have to bounce back in a positive way. The one time I faced failure was when my golf team did not qualify for the state golf tournament. Even though for the past four years our golf program has qualified for this prestigious tournament. Three years of which I was on the varsity team for. So heading into my Senior year my team and I were all excited to face the season as if we never stopped from where we left off from last year. Leading up to the season I was playing every day and I was traveling around Ohio playing in Northern Ohio Junior PGA tournaments. I was playing some of the best golf of my life and couldn't wait for the season to start. Sadly I suffered

I had pulled my scorecard out and added up my scores. The 18th was a dogleg left par 5 and with a par I shoot 78. A score that would make it through to districts. Following an arid tee shot, I disobeyed my coach in club choice for my second shot. The dominos began to fall and one bad shot followed another. I took a triple bogey on an easy hole and I knew as soon as I picked my ball up out of the cup that I had let people down. Waiting was the worse part of the whole process, it just dragged out the failure. After an hour passed and the news was given that I finished fifth, just short of being in that top four. That was the longest bus ride home ever. It was the start of a new fire and a new beginning.

I learned golf when I was 10 years old. I took personal lesson when I was in Middle school at Golftec.

When I receive a package in the mail, it almost feels like Christmas morning. The package has your name right on the top, in a neat and organized box that you want to rip open with all your might. I love the ring of the doorbell, knowing what you have been waiting for, sometimes for weeks, has finally arrived. My favorite package I have ever received in the mail was a package I received this spring. The package I received contained clothes and equipment, but this package was more than just that. The clothes and equipment in this package were from my favorite brand, were a huge honor to receive, and set forth an experience I will never forget.

A playoff in the sport of golf is an extra hole, or holes, played when, at the completion of regulation play in a competition or tournament, there is a tie and it is desirable to determine an outright winner. Playing in a playoff is one of the most exhilarating and nerve-wracking things anyone can experience when playing golf.

What if you were golfing and found a zombie golfer chasing you around? Well, thIs is what happened to me last Halloween. It was Halloween, 2016, and I was playing 18 holes on the golf course when I heard a loud noise coming from the woods. The sound sounded like it was coming closer and closer. I was wondering what was making that noise ?what could it be? I decided to walk into the woods to see what the sound was. Then I saw a golf ball coming over my head from the woods. Another six balls were coming at me really fast. I ran for cover and One of them almost hit me! I looked at one of the balls next to me and It looked like an eyeball. I was terrified! Then, the noises came closer, I started to run to my golf bag.I grabbed my driver and ran

This being my senior year and my last golf season I’ve had my goals set on winning a state championship. The past two years I have made it to state and my first year I wanted to win but it was more of a learning experience. Last year I was definitely attempting to win and I put way too much pressure on myself and I played absolutely terrible. After the major letdown of last year I wanted to work harder than I’ve ever worked to get back to state and win it. With that mindset I went into the summer knowing the work I had to put in to get where I wanted to be. I didn’t have the summer success I was hoping for and I actually became so frustrated that I thought about quitting because I was tired of putting so much work into something and not seeing any

Q. Do golfers enjoy having a digital map of each hole that includes distances to the pins as well as distances to the hazards?
