Going from hitting shots in the nets, or at the range to playing a golf course is exciting and nerve wracking. Exciting because this is what you’ve been building up to and nerve wracking because of the unknowns. For me the transition was like a big leap, I’d been on a six-week Gateway to Golf programme, it was a two month break and then I was on the course.
Being totally transparent it was so tough, I knew it would be, but I was surprised just how challenging it was. On the other hand, it was exhilarating and once I got over the shock I was happy to go out again and give it everything and I haven’t looked back since.
