Capricorn: Dec 22 - Jan 19
The Capricorn golfer is a model of consistency regarding their
aptitude and demeanor for the game of golf. Governed by self-discipline
and careful to avoid pitfalls, those born under the sign of the
Goat seldom stumble on the path to their goals. They exhibit a head-down,
sure-footed approach to the game of golf like they do in life, focused
and on-track. Strong leadership ability coupled with a fierce independence
and determination to meet all challenges is what characterizes the
Capricorn. Their physical strength, natural ability and understanding
of the swing allow them to focus on the finer points of the game,
having long ago mastered the basics. Capricorns do not suffer fools
easily and will not accept swing advice from someone with lesser
ability, however, they will listen closely to someone they respect
as a player and will work hard to correct any bad habits.
Ruled by Saturn, the Capricorn golfer may appear
at times to be cold and withdrawn around others
while playing golf but that is only because they
are trying so hard. Their emotions are hidden just
below the surface, suppressed by fierce concentration.
In competition a Capricorn is all business, and
sometimes viewed by the casual observer as detached
and aloof. Off the course they present a totally
different and engaging personality, often the life
of the party. Witness the competitive spirit and
focus of these fellow Capricorns: Tiger Woods, Paul
Azinger and Sergio Garcia. They are classic examples
of the Capricorn personality, possessing the best
of what Capricorn golfers are all about.
The CAPRICORN Fore!Cast
Capricorn's are very careful people, thinking things
over until they are confident they are making the
right decision. They make excellent students of the
game of golf because a strong desire to become a better
player motivates them. Saturn, in its first orbit
of the sun after a new moon, indicates a period of
versatility and experimentation. During this time
you may feel an almost undeniable urge to try anything.
You may want to test out the long
putter or invest in that new oversize driver
you have been thinking about. The stars indicate an
improved efficiency with the short game, especially
trouble shots around the greens but to fulfill this
prediction you may need to add a third wedge. Lunar
influence on Saturn, occurring in late summer, also
indicates the strong possibility of a dramatic ace
on a medium length par 3, of 150–165 yards.
Stay sharp with the middle irons and continue to seek
the pleasures of sunshine and fresh air while playing
your favorite course. Don't let the prospects of new-found
wealth disrupt your focus on improvement or your desire
to "pick" your opponents pocket.
The Capricorn golfer is goal oriented and usually succeeds in whatever
they set their sights on. Patience is the key. Keep your goals and
your expectations reasonable and don't put pressure on yourself
to go from a 22 to a 6 handicap overnight. Work on developing a
fixed routine that serves to slow down your pace but at the same
time sets you up to hit the good shots you visualize.
