E8: The Sligo Creek Golf Experience: Nerves, Gnats, and the Road to 92

What this episode covers

What happens when a mid-handicapper with a herniated disk and limited flexibility takes on 18 holes? In this episode, I’m taking you on the bag with me at Sligo Creek Golf Course in Silver Spring, Maryland, for a double-loop 18-hole session.This wasn’t just a round of golf; it was a test of the Mid-Range Swing philosophy. I’m documenting my mission to move my scoring average from 98.4 down to 92 without changing my swing, and this round provided some major mental and physical hurdles.In this episode, I dive into:✅The Mental Game: Dealing with the "Golf Anxiety" of having a group play right on my heels and the importance of not rushing your routine.✅Environmental Distractions: Trying to stay focused while battling a relentless swarm of April gnats.✅The Scorecard Reveal: How the Mid-Range strategy led to a 46 and a 42 for a total of 88—a massive milestone for the project.I am not a pro, a coach, or an instructor. I’m an amateur student of the game sharing the real, unpolished journey of playing golf in my late 50s. If you’ve ever felt pressured on the course or wondered if you can actually lower your score while managing physical limitations, this episode is for you.Join the Conversation: After you listen, head over to my Facebook Group or the WordPress blog to share yourthoughts.
