End of 2007 Golf Season

As I step outside my back door and see the 2 and a half foot deep snow drifts, I realize that my 2007 golf season is at an end. But what an eventful year it has been. I celebrated my first year anniversary of playing golf in March and also started an official golf handicap around the same time. I made my first eagle on a par 5 chip-in, and hit my first 300+ yard drive. I had the privilege of playing golf while on a family vacation in two other states, Michigan and South Carolina, and I broke 90 for the first time which I repeated again and again.

Thinking of those highlights reminds me of how good it has been. Sure there were low periods where my progress stagnated and it seemed that no matter what I did I couldn't improve, but overall I'm quite satisfied with this past year. After all, I did lower my golf handicap from 26 to 16 and I've learned a lot about myself and a lot about golf. Another benefit is that the regular exercise has helped me stay fit as I approach my mid 30s.

For this coming year, and actually for the next year and a half I have some very aspiring goals. These goals are going to take (and teach) more persistence than I've needed heretofore, and also require some careful planning with milestones. As I refine these goals and layout the milestones, I will share them here on my blog over the next couple weeks.
