In an era dominated by optimization, Playing golf alone offers something rarer: unstructured learning. Only golf pares the game down to its essentials. And without distractions, a golfer becomes more in tune with the game.
As Gary Belsky writes in his new book, Solo Golf: The Zen of Playing Alone and How It Can Transform Your Gamesolitude creates a different relationship with golf – one rooted in the mind and experimentation. A single turn turns the course into a laboratory.
When you go solo, there is the freedom to hit multiple shots, try different clubs or try new shots. That experiment will do wonders for your game. Perhaps most importantly, solo golf reconnects players with the simple joys of the game — an idea at the heart of Belsky’s book.
No stress, no swing thoughts. Just the sound of pure contact, the rhythm of your feet on the fairway and the possibility of learning something new about your game.
