Without golf knowledge and you can't buy that at the corner shop I would prefer to carry my own bag. Its like wanting to be a chauffeur and not having a drivers licence.

Formulate a plan on how you are going to play each hole. Look for the dangers off the tee. Evaluate the benifits or potential costs of the tee shots. I like Johnny Millers method of determining the type of both tee shots & approach shots. He used a RED, ORANGE & GREEN system. Green meant GO for it! the tee shot had minimal dangers if any & the potential success was worth it. Orange meant CAUTION! some danger ahead. So he might take a 3 wood to be slightly more accurate. Red meant STOP! you need to be really conservative here, iron off the tee may be the better play. He used the same principle in going for the flag on the greens. With the approach shots, look at each green and work out depending on potential pin positions, where the DO NOT GO areas are. They are the areas where if you miss the green, your chances of getting up and down are virtually nil. Each green can be different depending on design. Then when you are on each green take the opportunity to have some putts from different places on each green. Hit putts from spots that you may go to depending on different pin positions. Look at the type of grass on the greens. Does it have have a specific direction in growth. It's very valuable if you can to play the course a couple of times before the tournament, to play 1 round in the morning and 1 in the later afternoon to see if that effects the way the greens play. Finally check out the bunkers and see what the sand is like. Play a few trap shots to get a feel for the texture of the sand. Finally if you need to, work out the yardage for the course. By that I mean from the tee shot landing area to the front, middle and back of each green. That way if the tournament doesnt supply yardage you have it Most importantly write your observations for each hole down in a little note book and use it during the Tournament. Unless circumstances really warrant a change in your course management plan, STICK TO IT. If you dont get a chance to play the course, then you are going to need to make very good pre-shot obervations and decisions. Draw on your previous experiences with similar types of holes, the dangers they present and how you played them. Most importantly though is, ONCE YOU HAVE MADE THE DECISION TRUST IT and let your swing happen. Good luck with the tournament. Warm up well, stretch well before hitting balls on the range. Start off with wedges, then work through the irons. Finish with your woods. Go and hit some putts for 5-10 mins before you tee off. Most important of all ENJOY YOUSELF because really when it boils down, golf is still a game, have fun. If you have an opportunity to play the course prior to the first day of play, take it.

But I know, tomorrow, I will beat all of the guys out there (I'm a girl) no problem. It's just my nerves. So if you are any way like me getting nervous, just relax. And practice.
