As I am sure all higher handicap players are familiar with this type of playing, I must be one of the worst offenders in th world.
Played a few holes last night as below -
Hole----Par----strokes
1--------4--------4
2--------4--------5
3--------5--------9
(SI2)
4--------4--------4
5--------3--------3
6--------4--------7
7--------4--------4 (SI 3)
8--------5--------5
9--------3--------3
10-------4--------4
11-------4--------5 (SI 1)
14-------3--------3
18-------5--------8 (SI 4)
8 on the 18th was mainly because it was getting dark and I had to drop a ball as we could not see (or find) the direction of my first tee shot.
I am quite happy with these scores as it reflects my ability (and lack of concentration) - I have a 28 handicap at the moment, I am working hard to get rid of this bad smeel of a number.
The problem-
As soon as I play with a scorecard or new playing partners I go to bits. I cant putt or drive while my Irons are pretty reliable. I know having a scorecard is not life or death situation but it really effects my play do you have any advice on not letting it get to me. I know this effects lots fo players so all advice welcome.
