Over the weekend I received an email from a reader named Allen who asked me if I set golfing goals each year, and what I do to accomplish them. Here's your answer Allen, I hope it may help you and others reading this article make a plan for improvement this year. I haven't formally set goals for my own game for quite a while, because for the past six and a half years I've been busy selling artificial turf greens in addition to giving lessons and running my Junior Golf Camp. Last year I left the artificial turf greens business and was able to golf a lot more, and I really enjoyed it. So this year I'm setting realistic golfing goals, and implementing a process to get there. 2024 Golfing Goals: Lower my handicap index by one stroke, and to break par at least one time. My informal scoring goal prior to this year was to shoot my age, but I've got five bogeys to play with now so it's time to lower the bar. For the record, my plan is to live to be 100 and shoot my age. Areas for improvement
