Was it the sausage roll ...? (On Course Snacks)
I had the pleasure of playing the Legends Course at Moonah Links a few month ago.
(If you haven't been, I highly recommend it. Great course. Tough but fair...)
But before I get into my Sausage Roll Nutrition Story/Rant...

You've applied? Great. Back to the sausage roll...
It was just a 'social' round. Three mates and I. 4 ball best-ball Stableford matchplay...
But you know how these things go. We were all out to win. Things got competitive.
My partner and I ended up 3 holes down after 7....
Just couldn't hit a green. Couldn't make a putt...(spent a fair bit of time in the trees too...)
But things changed on the 8th tee.
The food and drinks cart arrived...
(Oh no, Andrew's gonna go on a rant about how eating affects my game again...?)
But like the good little PT that I am, I had packed my snacks the night before...
(Plus 2 litres of filtered water with a pinch of Celtic sea salt to replenish lost minerals - try that next time you play)
Then I hear: "I'll take a sausage roll mate..."
"Yeah make that two..."
So the pair we were playing against were both about to ingest some NASTY sh*t...
And then expect to keep winning holes...
Have you ever looked at the INGREDIENTS of a SAUSAGE ROLL...!!!???
(Do that next time you are at the footy or a 7/11...)
It's all numbers and stabilisers and flavours and words you can't pronounce....
If you know anything about physiology you KNOW that your BODY and its MOVEMENTS are just one big CHEMICAL REACTION...
Want to make your BODY perform WORSE on the golf course?
Simply add in some crap that it doesn't recognise, make your BODY SYSTEMS deal with it while you try to PLAY GOLF...
So what happened in the match...?
Sure enough, we started winning holes.
And took it out 3 and 2 after 16.
MASSIVE TURNAROUND....
Huge BACK NINE FADE by the sausage roll pair...
Was it the sausage roll...? You be the judge. But I say YES.
What are some great alternatives to the sausage roll though ...?
- Celery & peanut butter
- boiled eggs & carrot sticks
- Rice crackers with butter & nut butter
- Strawberries & cashews
- A banana & almonds
- Grilled chicken chopped up with some sliced cucumbers
- Trail mix (no chocolate)
The list is endless. But its all REAL WHOLE FOOD. No numbers ...
Try to eat every 4-6 holes to keep blood sugar stable and energy high.
Now, if you are serious about beating your mates...
Serious about reducing your handicap...
Serious about scoring well on the back nine...
Then join the winning team.
