I think once you get up to 16 pars a round you should be ambitious and aim for 20.

Step 1: get an official handicap. Step 2: get lessons. Step 3: play competitions. Step 4: Become frustrated at the lack of improvement 😅...

I don't keep a handicap score specifically, I'm just referring to roughly what I go round in. I don't have an official handicap. I'm...

If only it was this easy!!

Someone a lot more clued up than me will explain properly but those big scores will get reduced for handicap purposes. Look how good the...
