Golf is such an infuriating game imo, because you can hit one shot great, and the next shot, doing exactly the same thing (or at least that's how it feels) is absolutely dreadful.
First tee nerves are common even for those that have played for years, so your first first tee nerves are completely understandable. My advice would be to use a club you're comfortable with (assuming it's not a short par 3) such as a 7 wood or a hybrid rather than a driver, to keep your head down, to try not to hit the skin off the ball, to keep your head down, and finally to keep your head down.
First tee was a long one at a club you needed to drive a buggy from hole to next tee so I used my driver. The ball stayed on the tee because I missed it but the club head went about 50 yards.
My boss leant me his driver and I hit a beautiful straight drive about 200 yards. Sadly the only good shot I hit that day although I did a reasonable shot on another hole when I was out of sight and the others accused me of throwing it because they didnβt believe Iβd hit it.
My ball always has an affinity with water and every water hole in I went to the extent that on one hole there was a ditch about 15 yards to the front and right of the tee which I hadnβt seen but one of the party said mind the water. I said what water and went straight in.
They never asked me again but donβt let this put you off. π
I feel sure the Rohingya community around the world will be very grateful that someone has documented their plight. I hope it will find a warm reception and do much good.
Well done mate.
Really well done
