Take a look at that photo to the left.  I mean, really now.  Sure, that stall is covered and heated, but are you so desperate to hit a golf ball that you&#8217;ll stand outside in freezing temps at a snow-covered range on which you&#8217;ll likely have no idea where your ball actually lands? Yeah&#8230;me too.<\/span><br \/><span><\/span><br \/><span>I&#8217;ll admit to several times being that guy.  Whether it&#8217;s out of boredom, or my genuine want to improve at this game, I&#8217;ve been known to hit a driving range a few times between the months of December and February.  I know I could go to an indoor range, and I will.  But there&#8217;s still something about tracking the flight of the ball.<\/span><br \/><span><\/span><br \/><span>But this offseason, I think I&#8217;m going to try something different.  This offseason, I think I&#8217;m going to shut golf out completely.  But I have reasoning behind this, and it&#8217;s really very simple.  It seems as if the more I work in the offseason, the fewer results I see &#8211; and this past season was the worst yet.  Coincidentally, last offseason was the one in which I practiced the most.  <\/span><br \/><span><\/span><br \/><span>Now I&#8217;m not saying I&#8217;m not going to practice at all.  I will still hit the indoor range once or twice, but that&#8217;s it.  You see, when I first took up this game, that&#8217;s about as often as I would work in the offseason.  And guess what&#8230;.I improved every year!  But it seemed when I would work more in the offseason and try to focus on individual aspects of my game, other parts of my game would suffer.  What this added up to was higher scores, a drop-off in improvement and more frustration once out on the course.  <\/span><br \/><span><\/span><br \/><span>So this offseason I am going to try to counter that by going back to the way things used to be.  No more standing out in the cold at the range.  Just a trip or two to the indoor range to keep the basics of my swing in order and that&#8217;s it.  I figure by not focusing on any certain aspect of my game, I won&#8217;t lose anything anywhere else.  Plus, let&#8217;s face it, the practice time adds pressure to perform when you get back out on the course.  You go back out there expecting to see results, and if they don&#8217;t show right away&#8230;you know what I mean.  Who wants to go through that?                         <\/span><br \/><span><\/span><br \/><span>So over the next several months, golf will be merely a distant memory.  No pressure to work on the game.  No high expectations.  No disappointment when the expectations don&#8217;t pan out.  And hopefully, with any luck, I&#8217;ll show some improvement&#8230;just like the old days before I tried!<\/span><br \/><span><\/span><br \/><span>Swing &#8217;til you&#8217;re happy! <\/span><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you want to see something foolish?
