and have to fit golf around real life.

What Is A Weekend Golfer?

Golf Has to Fit Around Real Life

Being a Weekend Golfer doesn’t mean you only play at weekends.

It’s about loving golf, wanting to improve and seeing how good you can get, while fitting the game around work, family and everything else life throws at you.

I’m Steve, a club golfer based in Wiltshire, and I’m a Weekend Golfer too. I play, practise and compete, take lessons, try different equipment and visit plenty of golf courses along the way.

Weekend Golfers is where I share what happens, what works, what doesn’t, and what I learn from my own golf and from the PGA professionals I’ve been fortunate enough to spend time with.

Built For Weekend Golfers

I haven’t got golf completely worked out. I don’t think many of us have

I’m still trying things, changing things, getting some of them right and occasionally getting them spectacularly wrong. That’s part of the game and part of trying to get better.

If something I experience, learn or discover helps another Weekend Golfer along the way, even better.

MORE THAN JUST MY SCORECARD

GOLF FROM DIFFERENT SIDES

Playing my own golf is only one part of the story.

Practising is where I work on getting better before taking it onto the course.

Caddying for Tyce has given me a completely different view of competitive golf, while Richard’s video coaching lets me learn from a PGA Professional whenever I want.

They all give me different ways to look at the same game and plenty to learn along the way.
