Interesting point! Does anyone have favorite practices or exercises they do before a round with friends? I’d love to hear more about this.

I usually like to hit a few balls to loosen up. It not only helps with my swing but boosts my confidence too.

I read somewhere that visualization can help improve performance. Visualizing each shot before taking it can give you that extra edge. Anyone tried this?

Absolutely! It feels a bit silly at first, but it works wonders. You may even find yourself giving your friends a confident ‘I got this’ before a tough shot!

I think pairing up two golfers against one can really heighten the competition. The pressure on the solo player can be exhilarating! What do you all think?

Definitely! This format turns it into more of a strategic game. You can plan your moves based on your teammate’s strengths.

I love the idea of introducing random side bets! Maybe betting on the best putt or most unique shot could add an element of surprise to the game.

Exactly! Having mini-goals through side bets can keep everyone engaged and make the game more dynamic.

What about modifying the scoring system a bit? Maybe you could use a system where birdies earn extra points and bogeys subtract points! It keeps things interesting.

That’s a clever approach! I think it could really encourage players to take more risks!

Has anyone tried a format where instead of just stroke play, you play a modified match play? It can create more head-to-head scenarios among the three golfers.

Yes! That changes the dynamics completely. It’s all about mental strategy rather than just physical skills.

I feel like a fun side bet could be to wager on who has the best golf attire! It could lighten things up while we keep score.

Ha! I’d definitely need to step up my fashion game for that one. But honestly, it’s a lighthearted way to keep the competition going.
