The Mission: Golf Sidekick's mission since inception has been to slash the world's average handicap by 5 strokes. The main focus has always been on the double digit handicap golfer. I believe you can improve your scores, have more fun and make new friends by getting good enough at golf to have enough confidence to play with anyone anytime.
We can achieve this with relevant equipment, applicable strategy, superb course management, and knowing more about the game in general.
Golf Sidekick brings you only the best advice, best recommendations and best information for better golf. There's no ghost writing, there are only golfers involved here. Our team consists of golf pros, professional touring golfers, instructors and amateur golfers with keen insights into the game.
We focus on bringing you the best, most truthful independent golf equipment reviews and on-course strategies.
Our secondary mission is to stop you quitting this wonderful game. We want you playing forever and ever.
You can catch all the mental advice, course management concepts, and overall fun at the Golf Sidekick Youtube channel.
