I've always wondered if my chopper-ness was the by-product of a prodigous talent left to go to waste through lack of regular golf and the demands of elite bush cricket, or if I was just crap at the game and my only saving grace was that at least I had an excuse for not improving.

Now I'm going to find out for sure.

Three rounds to get a handicap, and hopes of further comp golf as the year unfolds. My goal is to start on 20 and get down under 18 by year's end. Why is the second goal so absurdly modest? Mainly because, after a ten-month layoff, I don't think I'll be acheiving the first one.

Note to self: do NOT raise the bat tomorrow.
