Interferences

I seemed to have broken the golden rule of keeping a good blog, that is making regular posts. So to anyone who actually finds this post even if it is 6 months from now, thank you for your loyalty. I really haven't played golf since the end of August, or nearly a month. September is prime golfing weather in Colorado and taking a full month off at the end of the summer is hardly a way to improve at golf. My excuse has led me to once again ponder the relevance of my quest and to add a little caveat to the timing of my goal to become a 5 handicap golfer. My job responsibilities changed about a month ago which necessitated long hours at the office. I certainly could have played and practiced golf during this time, but it would have been at the great expense of time with my family. My original philosophy remains that after all is said and done, golf is nothing more than a hobby and when circumstances involving my family or employment conflict, golf will always take a back seat. So, I have fallen back just a little, but am very close the end of the tunnel with long days at the office. I plan on playing a few more rounds before the snow falls and one more at Christmas in Arizona, hopefully all full 18 hole rounds. My focus is still chipping and pitching with the goal to get closer to a 2.0 average chip/putt per hole.
