The solitude of the swing

This thing about grip the club, standing in front of the ball, performing the shot and seeing what face we have left, has a lot of oneself. Skills, tensions and emotions of each one.

Our golf improvement in golf is something very private: it is reflected sometimes in the drive range, sometimes in the card and rarely in the victory of a tournament (we usually win not by good play, but by mistakes of others)

When you learn to play chess, you are always looking for a partner to play a game with. Alone, chess becomes quite tedious. In golf, when you learn to swing the club, you can look for a friend to shot balls together or better yet, to play a few holes, but really you always face alone the golf: either with the intrinsic difficulty of swing during practice session, or with the challenge of the course.
