I got my first golf club when I was 9 years old but I only had one lesson. When I was 10 we had mini kids golf at my primary school and I started playing. After a while I started going to group sessions at my local golf club in Tidworth where I was taught by one of the pros - Charlie Gold. I then progressed to the junior academy with the head pro at Tidworth. Charlie moved away as he found a new job however I still have individual lessons with Charlie as he is my main coach.

Swing Lesson with Charlie
Today I had a swing lesson with Charlie. He looked at my swing in general and said it looked 'world class' which I was super happy about. Previously, I was working on swinging left to try and not come from the inside, although this is good with my irons it is not so good when it comes to driving. I was swinging too far left with my driver so I was slicing everything and hitting it inconsistently (mainly out of the toe). Towards the end of the lesson I was hitting my driver better and knew exactly what I needed to work on to fix it. It was a great lesson and I had a fun time with Charlie.

Tidworth Junior Open
Today, I played in my home Junior Open I shot 78, nett 70. Which is good however I should have shot a lot lower as I was only 2 over gross front nine. Overall great day! Thank you to all the organisers and ball spotters.

Finals Day at Wrag barn!
Today, we played against Broome Manor at Wrag Barn in the Wiltshire finals day. Unfortunately, we lost 4-2 however in the majority of the matches it was very close. I halved my match and played very well round a course I had never played before. Even though we lost we still get to represent Wiltshire in the SW regional Championships in Cornwall or Bristol.

Final League Match VS Manor House
Today, the Tidworth Junior League team played against Manor House. The team consisted of: Harry, Max, Me, Callum, Alex, and Jack. We only needed two match wins to take us to the final against Broome Manor played at Wragbarn. Manor House could only bring 3 players as they didn't have enough people for a full team, therefore the score was already 3-0, however Harry, Max and I won our matches, so the final score was 6-0. I was giving 15 shots and won 2&1, overall a fun day!

Tabernacle foursomes with Max!
We teed off at 8:00 and set out to shoot a great score (well that was until Max put me on the car park on 15). Both of us didn't play very well however we only shot 2 over our handicap (which was 8) and we finished in 4th position. Overall a great day with great company! Thank you to our playing partners John and Nigel.
