I'm in my late thirties and have only been playing for 2 or 3 months. I'm totally hooked and want to play any time I get the chance. Despite my enthusiasm, I'm still pretty bad. On our local course (par 54) I shoot around +12. My putting and upshot game is ok, but longer shots are still really unpredictable. I still have the classic beginner problem of yanking my drives up into the sky for 50 foot hyzer bomb. Other times my shots can actually go out flat and get some decent glide. I'm improving, but slowly.
There is a B tier coming up in a couple of months and I think I want to sign up for the Rec division. Is this division truly for beginners, or am I going to be holding up my card and completely embarrassing myself? I don't mind coming in last. I just don't want to feel like a fool. What do you think? Am I ready for a tournament or should I stick to casual play until I get more consistent?
