Trying out for my high school golf team in spring of 2010?
i have played golf about three times a year since i was really little, i have my own clubs and bag, i’m just very, very mediocre. I’m going to start taking lessons very soon, my family are all golfers, i really want to make the team and am prepared to work hard any tips or techniques to keep my focus and how often should i play/hit at the driving range/practice chipping and putting? i’m pretty terrible but i understand the mechanics.

Being a very good golfer is a 7 day a week job but for most good golfers, its a labor of love. Put some hard work in and do the best you can. Just showing up and giving it your best shot will earn the respect of the other players.
Your best shot at making the team is by showing the coach potential. If you show your love for the game, and your commitment to improving yourself you should be fine. From my experience, coaches prefer a lesser skilled player with a positive team spirit, over a better player who is cocky and only cares about himself. Oh and don’t go around throwing clubs if you hit a bad shot, be well tempered, mature, and respect the game.
Good luck!
