My goal this year was just to get a handicap as I am a newbie and I got 27
It was remarked yesterday that I can drive the ball and Putt well especially around the 4-5' mark. So that gives me some areas to concentrate on and in fact I had already focused on my irons as my weakness (bad pull) and I am having lessons to put right but it does involve altering my swing quite dramatically so is not a quick fix. Also a lot of people add up my card and have a sort of eh moment and say that my scores do not reflect the golf I played.
My course is not particularly long nor does it contains much water but it is very tight and tricky.
So with my driver and Putter only working what other tactics can I employ to start getting those scores down.
I can hit some good shots but I am just not consistent I will be putting for a birdie on one hole and then for a seven on the next.
How can I plot my way around the course to get a score and handicap more reflective of my ability or is it just a case of patience and the scores will come?
Thanks all.
