Why Golf Is an Amazing Experience

by Melvin

Golf is a game that spans for hours and for this time you're able to forget about everything else.

I was struggling to keep my game together but it didn't matter because I met some really wonderful people.

People who do this game on a regular basis are good at the mental side of the game and you can't help but grow more connected just by being around those people.

It really is an amazing experience, even if it's hard sometimes, because you get better and better after each round you play.

I Play Golf Because the Rhythm of Swinging a Club

by James

I'm the only one in my family who plays golf.

Every time I do, my wife complains about the time sink.

It's about the rhythm of swinging a club.

It's about finding time to think and ignore the internet.

It's about going outside and it's always interesting to me that other people have a hard time understanding this.

I am a golfer.

I play golf with buddies and I play by myself.

It's addicting to see how long it takes me to beat my best round ever.

You can't beat the feeling of the ball striking the ground and sending it flying into the air just right.

Golf Is More Than Just a Game

by Max

Golf is an interesting game that I have never played before.

It came highly recommended by a friend after my last surgery and he claimed it would be good for me. At first, I was hesitant because I didn't want to spend the time or money on something that I might not enjoy, but eventually I caved in and decided to give it a try.

I learned that golf is a game of strategy. It requires both physical skill and mental prowess!

You have to think about what your opponent will do next and how you should react in response. It's like chess on the green!

The best part is the competition - you don't get heated arguments or fights like you do in other sports leagues.

Learning how to get into golf has added a whole new dimension to my life - this is why I play!

I Play Golf Because...

by Tara

The game of golf was created in medieval Scotland where there were people who loved to play and others who despised the game.

I'm more the first type.

Here are some of the reasons I play golf:

1) Playing golf is a great way to exercise -- golf is one of the best ways to get exercise because it requires walking and has a varied tempo. Golf also tones muscles, increases endurance, and provides balance, coordination, and strength training.

2) Golf is a great way to meet new people -- it's a sport that's easy for beginners to understand and most people are happy to offer advice or help with your swing. When you find someone who knows about the game of golf, you've found an instant friend.

3) Golf can be played alone without feeling lonely
-- it doesn't matter if you're playing alone or with friends on a golf course, you're guaranteed to have fun while improving your skills at golfing while getting some fresh air.

Golf Helps Me Reach Out to New People

by Ellis

The sport of golf has helped me reach out to new people, face the challenges of my life, and bring meaning behind the game. I've learned that I have become a more confident and caring person.

In this brief piece I discuss how golf has provided me with three dimensions to my life: mental health, physical health, and spiritual health.

Golf has added a great deal to my mental health by providing me with a way to cope with anxiety and stress. It also helps me in facing new challenges and having fun while doing so.

For physical health it's been shown that golf is one of the best exercises for adults because it involves all muscles in the body that move the whole body at once while low impact on joints.

Finally it's shown how golf can be very beneficial in achieving spiritual wellbeing as well by connecting us to nature through walks around the course, giving us opportunities for reflection and contemplation which is all part of our human need for connection.

Strategically Plan Your Moves for Success

by Ralph

Using a gift card I bought a set of clubs and some other stuff. I was dying to find out what golf was all about.

In the beginning I got up there and swung away, but missed that ball completely. It took me some tries to get the hang of hitting the ball right and making contact. A few weeks later, I was hitting the ball quite well…

There's something about hitting a golf ball with the driver that's attracting me to this game. Yes, it's like playing a mind game in the way you strategically plan your moves, but with action-packed excitement with each shot's outcome in your hands.

Now I'm hooked!

Golf Is Not Something That Can Be Taken For Granted

by Emily

As a child, my father would make me play golf with him. At first I hated the game and only wanted to go to get my father's approval.

Eventually, I had so much fun playing golf and loved the challenge of it that I decided I wanted to be in it for life.

I began playing in tournaments and found out that there was so much more satisfaction in golf than other sports.

There were so many different challenges that golf gave me, such as thinking about what club to use and then trusting myself, imagining how the ball will fly, hitting the ball, watching where it lands.

Golf taught me how to be patient, enjoy myself at the same time I'm competing against others.

As my skills improved over the years and I hit better shots in tournaments and friendly rounds wherever I play, an intense feeling of satisfaction came over me because golf is something that can't be taken for granted.
