I played a couple of weekends ago and concluded that the only way to break 80 is to play 9 holes

Just to parrot golfsidekick,just play forward tees until you do.. than move back 1.. if after 2 holes, it's A game day. Move back. To regular tees. putter on fire.. move back 1.. best for me is 82,from blues.... pure A game day..

Great round Adam! I started using your approach of the game and it's crazy how you can lower your score by keeping a positive mind set through 18 holes. Being in WI at this time of the year it's tough because of conditions (wet and cold) but managed to break 90 few times by staying positive and focus through the round! Love your content mate!

I've been thinking about starting my own series of playing golf and recording just to see my progression. Currently an honest 24 handicap with plenty of "tidy up putts" that I just miss all too often increasing my scores through 18 on average by 10 or more. Double bogeys on par 3's and 4's and bogeys on 5's. My worst handicap is my OB drops as well. I had 3 drops in my previous 101 score and those will hurt you if you're already struggling to turn birdie putts into pars. Thanks for the take I know that my golf game could improve drastically if it were as easy as making the shots more consistently. Love the game for the constant change in environment and play factors. Bad lie, bunker shot, rough iron shots from behind trees.

I think an underrated item here is that while you don't need to roll in everything from 8 to 15 feet, you DO need to make a couple of them through your round. That's the 25-50% make range. You gotta grab a couple of those to turn an 82 into a 79.

For people that are actually close, eliminate all your double bogeys. Don't take unnecessary risks and play safe and it really not that hard. Practicing chipping and putting a shit ton is a big one too, get to the point where you're always chipping to 6 feet or closer and get to where you're making a 10 foot 8 out of 10 times
