1. Choose a calming location such as Alexandra Headlands Gardens, at Alexandra Headlands. Gather your flyers, NZ golf magazine green fee vouchers and Aussie golf magazines and set yourself up here:

2. Timing is everything with successful planning. Don't rush your tempo. Make sure you pace yourself or you'll exhaust yourself before the finish:

| Perfect timing = perfect planning |
(Note address position now - relaxed but ready to give that planning everything.)
3. Once you've selected your special green fee deals from mags, etc, it's time to get into the modern age and go online to iseekgolf.com. This is where you'll get daily deals on cheap green fees, at selected clubs. At this stage, you must watch your hydration. Remember, it's a heck of a lot hotter in Queensland in August than anywhere in New Zealand:

| NZ wine for the best hydration |
(It's often a good idea to switch to a foursomes format, at this stage, to avoid any Tiger Woods situations. (We're talking 'dumping of caddy' here, not the other...))
4. It's most important to 'warm down' after your planning. This is what we do, here at Alexandra Headland Gardens:

| Best spa pool on Sunshine Coast |
Repeat steps 1 - 4 for each day's golf.

Such strenuous activity will have you completing step 4, but unable to get out of it.
