5 tips to get the most out of your late-season rounds – Golf Canada






1. Focus on Enjoyment, Not Score

Treat your last few rounds as “celebration golf.”

Play your favorite course or holes, enjoy the scenery, and appreciate your progress from the season.

Leave the pressure behind, this is your victory lap.

2. Play with Purpose

Use these rounds to fine-tune specific aspects of your game before the offseason.

For example: work on driving accuracy one round and short game the next.

Keep simple, focused goals (e.g., “hit 10 fairways” or “no three-putts”).

3. Optimize for Weather and Course Conditions

Dress in layers and bring hand warmers if it’s chilly.

Use colored or matte balls for better visibility in lower light.

Tee off during midday when greens are softer and temperatures are more comfortable.

4. Capture the Moments

Take photos or short videos of your favorite holes, shots, or playing partners.

These make great motivation for winter practice or off-season planning.

Track your best shots with a rangefinder or GPS app to review later.

5. Plan for the Off-Season

Use these rounds to identify what to work on indoors (putting mat, swing drills, flexibility).

Note recurring issues (e.g., distance gaps, chipping inconsistencies).

Schedule an end-of-season lesson or equipment check before putting the clubs away.
