Obviously we all play the game to a different standard & to some it comes more natural than others. What handicap do you think you could get to??
 
Good question. Unless I can get my Driving sorted out for good will not get any lower. Have shot under par rounds and shot level and +1 quite a few times. But next time out will shoot a score of 85+ all down to bad tee shots normally. So for the time I can put in and the fault I have then probably the lowest I am going to get
 
I reckon once i calm down and get to a rythm of playing ill be playing mid teens judging from what i can do right now. Going by the fact i dont hit a ball very far, i reckon i could get to mid to high single figures after a few years of dedication. Positive mental attitude and all that ;)
 
Im only playing 5 years and through 3 of those years iv had 2 bad leg injuries which kept my handicap static for a good period.....
Im now down to 12 with a goal of 10 before the season finishes.....
After that my goal is to get to CAT1..... I know one day I will be a low single figure golfer....I have the ability and the patience for it....But what I have to get my head clear of is searching for the perfect swing and play what I have....When I get over that obstacle then my handicap will really start to tumble.....
 
I'm 44 next year, I'm looking to get my 3rd card in for my first official HC, which I reckon will be around 15 or 16, as long as I get to play more than 1 round a fortnight, there is no reason why I couldn't get down to low single figures
 
If I could pull together 18 holes I could be playing of 14-16. Will be happy if I can get down to 18 and at least remove the stigma of having 2 shot holes.
 
If I played more, I reckon I could get down to 8 or 9. My lowest has been 10 and I'm now off 13. Although I hardly pick a club up nowadays, I know there is a good golfer in there trying to get out. But I can't be arsed.
 
If I can ever get past this monkey on the back over 18 and getting two shots rubbish I'd like to think I can get down to at least a high cat 2 handicap
 
I've officially been playing 3 years to the day today. This is the first year I've struggled with my golf as things stand I can't put 18 consistent holes together. I can play a good 12-14 holes in level par and then throw away the rest, if I can get the 4-6 sorted the I reckon maybe 4-5 handicap but as of today i'm heading back toward 9!
