On my late night walk I was so frustrated on how I've been golfing for a year and feel like I've barely improved Then it dawned on me that I've only really played 10 full 18 hole games. Practice at the range was a lot but if I don't know what I'm doing wrong it was wasted time

I've recently opted into doing some New Year's resolutions for the first time ever I've always thought they were a bit silly since it's up to you as the individual to commit and do them, but I figured if I write them down and post it note them all over it'll remind me to do them

I was so confused why I kept seeing this stupid X on my notifications today. I've now realized that the bird is dead. Good thing I can still tweet.
