    • Some great advice already. My improvement came at what felt like a snail's pace - but now looking back at it, it was pretty fast. Two years ago I had never broken 90, and I put that on a list of goals I had for the year. Every Friday (my day off and golfing day (along with any/all other chores/shopping I have to do)), I would make sure I was either playing or practicing, sometimes both. I took a series of lessons that REALLY helped. I started looking at my stats analytically and tried to find areas I could take one or two strokes off every round. For me, consistent iron play and getting better around the green were the two huge ones. I spent a LONG time putting, chipping, pitching, etc. My goal was, when chipping/pitching, to get down in two. It's hard. You don't do it often. But I started getting incrementally more confident in my chipping. And then in my putting.  So that was my plan of attack. I shot an 88 about 8 months into 2022. Once that dam was broken, I kept doing it. Not EVERY time, but often.  2023 (late 2023, mind you), I shot a 78, and the next week shot 75.  I haven't broken 80 since. Lol, but now I know(!) I can.  So much of this game is confidence.  Look at your game and pick an area you think you could be better at. Then practice the hell out of that. I found that it often leads to improvements elsewhere.  And then come back here and let us know what you're working on - there are SO many smart people on here who LOVE to help!

    • Like @GolfSpy_APH said break it down into smaller chunks and dont think about a final score.  In addition to what he said take the round 3 holes at a time and try to get a 14 on each of the three hole groups.  You get a fresh start every 3 holes so if you miss the target score on one set it doesnt seem so bad for the whole round.  It takes your focus off a total score for the round.  It is a small mental thing but seems to work for a lot of people.

    • I have a couple of both. But typically use my stand bags.
    • The gamers know those are all in the house just waiting to step into the starting lineup.  Thats what keeps the gamers from misbehaving on the course.  Much like a strong bench in basketball pushes the starters, it sounds like essential equipment to me!
