Can't wait to get back out to shitty courses as the weather gets better.

I played 100% by the rules without any bullshit or funny business, probably lost two strokes due to goose shit all over the greens.

From experienced golfers on Reddit who are also probably lying their asses off.

An 88 on your first 18 is like 3 or 4 standard deviations above the norm, I don’t care what this dork did in college. We’re talking like 25 strokes minimum.

An easier course doesn’t shave off 25-30 strokes. And that’s low if you play by all the rules, don’t take breakfast balls, etc. I don’t understand why people here can’t just be real. It’s okay to suck in the beginning. We’re all 40+ and don’t need to impress strangers. Anyways, carry on. This is on par with Biden claiming to be a 6 cap.

what i mean is that he’s been playing for years hasn’t he? just not on a full size course. so he knows how to get the ball in the hole.

some courses are very penal off the tee but if that’s not the case why couldn’t he score similarly vs par as he was on the par three courses

Nah but an easier course makes a huge difference bro

I've almost only played on difficult 130+ courses from blues because my friends are too rich (good courses are hard) and macho to play to their handicap

One time I played some sps local course but only 9 holes and it was ridiculously easy, no slopes or dog legs, probably something like OP played

I played the same course (Dyker Beach from white tees) again this past weekend and got a 106. I've played both the front and back nine separately before, but the score I posted above was true to the best of my memory and my partially filled out card.

I also played a good amount in Florida and Georgia a few weeks ago, always just nine holes at open with rental clubs though. I've literally only played 18 holes twice in my life, but have played 9 holes, executive courses, etc many many times now.

how’s the pace of play at dyker these days? i played it a couple times long ago and it was abysmal.

otherwise thought it was about as good as it gets for urban muni golf. a few really good holes, some interesting greens and a unique setting. oh the other thing that sucked iirc was you had to pay for parking in a lot where cars probably got hit by golf balls every day ljl

Honestly seemed like it would be bad for normal tee time players, the first day I played 18 was in the 30s and I was there at open. When I finished today there were like 10-11 groups waiting at the first tee. They had a league starting so hole one was a shitshow of carts.

I walked the back nine so no problems for me. I've actually never been on a golf cart before except for being carted off a lacrosse field a couple times back in the day.

You should read Every Shot Counts or look into the Decade stuff. Counting greens hit is not actually that good of a stat because it’s highly correlated to your score.

I’d track double bogeys, bogeys on par 5s, three putts, double chips and bogeys with PW or less. Try to eliminate those and your scores will drop BIGLY

there is merit to this. simplifying by forcing yourself to make birdies when you should makes scoring a lot easier vs. grinding away and shooting 73 with 17 pars. I did the latter too much in HS/jr golf. also "don't fuck up" should be a quote ingrained in your head

Yeah avoiding doubles and bogeys (when within scoring distances) are the biggest keys in my mind to lowering your handicap. All of those things listed above are great ways to avoid those unforced errors.
