One of my goals this year was to join a golf club, obtain a handicap and potentially start competing in weekly comps. As we are now half way through the year and I have yet to join one, I thought it high time to get serious. I do however have some questions about selecting a club and whether it is the right time. I have been constantly playing at least 9 holes a week since the start of the year, as well as lessons roughly once a month. I have developing confidence, but i still have a lot to work on in all aspects of the game. I am taking this journey alone, so it has been a daunting process. I know I could answer all these questions, but I thought I would put it out there to more knowledgeable people.
How does one select a golf club, is it typically based on proximity, membership costings and course enjoyment?
The course I like the look of has some slight aspects that I don't like, such as a share fairway with a driving range.
When do you typically want to considering getting a handicap?
I seldom keep score now, as I am building enjoyment for the game.
Am I ready to start to start competitive golf, or am I going to just be burden to the pace of play on a comp day?
I have a slight anxiety of miss hit balls, and learning the golfing conventions and etiquette.
