Coach always told me that you can figure out a lot about your game by looking at your score card, and probably not in the manner you are thinking.
If your first 6 holes are your worst - you are not warmed up.
If your middle 6 holes are the worst - you are hungry.
If your last 6 holes are the worst - you are tired.
Want to take a guess as to which category I fell into every single time? Yup! You called it. I was hungry.
As a result, I've been on the hunt for snacks that I can eat easily on the golf course to pack in my bag alongside my water, electrolytes, and banana. Especially snacks that can provide instant and long-term energy for the hours spent on the course.
