If you asked me last year, I’d say golfing with strangers was not on my to-do list. I was comfortable playing with the same friends, a no pressure 9 holes while our kids were in school or we were off work.
We were all similar levels; we didn’t have much time to practice; and we all looked forward to the lunch that came after our round. But (being the competitive person I am) I was disappointed with my game. I wanted to be better, to play harder, to dedicate more time to golf - but I also I felt like I needed to lower my scores before joining our golf club’s women’s league or jumping in another foursome.
