Dear all

I just started recently, and due to the lack to opportunity to be playing on course, I’m hacking it around 110 – 120 per round.
I believe this is attributed due to lack of playing opportunity on course.

More on me, I’m 36yo (if age matters), live nearby University Malaya and I’m recently frequenting KGPA driving range an average of 2 times a week to work on my shots.
See, I’m actively going to the driving range (the initiative is there), but somehow lacking of playing partners is the main reason I’m stuck at 110 – 120.

I’m giving myself calendar year 2015 to improve my score to play circa 95-100, which means I need to play on course at least once a month, which I don’t mind.
Even twice a month, I’m fine.

I prefer to play weekday (I can take day off), as sometimes for weekends I have my Masters class.

I’m currently not a member of any club, do not have any handicap card.
However all that said, I’m holding the AGSSG card that enables to play at a discount around town, so fret not. Just name the place and if I’m available I can join.

Most of my friends are playing in their 90s and its a bit embarassing playing with them, slowing them down too.
And furthermore, they are into betting, which I’m not.

Hence I’m writing to see if anyone here also faces similar issue like me, and maybe we all can gang up and organize some outing just to get our golf fix for improvement.

Cheers
Neo

Hi, Neo,

Welcome to the group.

I'm facing the similar issue as well. Maybe we can arrange a round of golf some time soon.
Cheers!

Thank you, will stay tuned for any upcoming rounds.

Hi,
Having a good swing is important...
but to break 110 for the first time.. a good strategy is almost as important !
You must be mentally strong too..

You need to change your approach to every hole in the course:
Change every par 3 to par 5, par 4 becomes par 6, and par 5 becomes par 7..

Since you hv more strokes, it will reduce your tendency to attack the hole
and get you into trouble and big numbers that will blow your chance.

The secret is : do not attack.. play safe..

If u are able to hold on to the strategy and execute it accordingly...
you will be able to play 72+36 =108..

over time you'll be able to start savings stroke from short par 5 and start making pars on easy par3..
it will just be a matter of time before you break 100..

the obstacle is in yr mind... play your own game.. it is easier than u thought .

Thanks for sharing. Much appreciated thoughts.

me too.....played golf for almost 4 years.....still score 100++...

thank you for your tips bro....
