Playing like a numpety at present, start of season aim was to get back to 10 and hopefully below, it's not happening at present, current aim is to break 90!
I feel a low 80s should be doable if I can manage 18 holes without any disasters. I've had quite a few 8+ on holes this year all down to really struggling in bunkers but I think ( hope) I've got that sorted now
I seem to have a different swing (or at least thought) every week, but when it goes well I think I could get close to par - without breaking it. Maybe 73 or 74.
As per my huuuuge introduction post a few days back, shooting a +10 on 18 holes of Formby's par 3 course the other day I'd be disappointed if I didn't break 88 by the end of the year. Of course, the driver will need to be in my hand for at least 14 holes but with plenty range time am hopeful I can put the practise to good measure.
I'm sure I could shoot a mid 80, yesterday in a practice round after carding 2 blobs on the bounce I went -1 through 5 holes. It's in me somewhere, just need to drag it out from the depths!!
par or -1 i hope .. if i can find my game somewhere .. would settle for a few +3's tho
mind you ive been saying that for a while now, i was -3 on 16th tee at end of last year , finished level , so a mental block aswell as an ability to break through , all good shooting low for 14 or 15 holes , no good if ya dont see it out
When my courses greens stop looking like a bombing range (maybe by September) I think 80 is the worst best I could have by the end of the summer. My course plays better in winter, firm, dry and fair so I expect even better scoring then.
I've already beaten my previous PB by 4 shots this year, shooting 75 twice (par 69, SSS 70), and I shot 74 in a bounce game on Thursday. On each occasion, I reckon I could have shaved 2 or 3 shots off so, if I could put it all together one day, I think 71 or 72 is possible.
What I'm capable of scoring and what I think I can score are a bit different, I reckon i can break 80 at my place in medals and should be doing it frequently but i can't get lower than an 82 (11 over) and im struggling mainly due to bad mistakes and decisions.
My ten medal gross eclectic is 66 (5 under) so the game is there, I just need it there for all 18 holes.
Well if I manage to play a few weeks consecutively which i've not managed this year and I find the game I know is hidden in there somewhere i'd love think i could shoot Par.
