I started the 2007 season at 5.2 USGA index
I ended the 2007 season at 3.7 USGA index
Overall I am happy. I did not get to the chipping level I was shooting for, but the new irons really came through.

I don't have an official handicap, I'm going to work on that next year.

This year my first 8 rounds were high 90's and low 100's, all of the rest of my rounds since then have been mid to high 80's and a couple of low 90's, So I took off about 10 strokes, give or take.

Not done for the year yet, but I started at a 28(IIRC) and am down to an 11.6 now. Very happy, and I'm still probably going to drop a few more strokes, hopefully into single digits by the end of the year.

I'm still on the same handicap I was at the start of the year (4.4 - 4.2 at the moment..), but I have learnt alot this year and feel that I my game has dramatically improved, both in swing and mental game...Still kind of sucks that the handicap hasn't really moved much this year except up/down/up/down...Oh wells..

20 at the start
14 today

Got tired of really playing worse than I thought I was capable in late June, got fitted for clubs, practiced as much as possible, and cut 6 strokes by the start of November. Hopefully much more progress next year.

No official handicap this year, but I went from a total hack who averaged 105 per round (with cheating, shaving strokes, and so on - so more like 125 on an honest scorecard) to a low of 11.9 handicap. Hacked it up recently and I'm up to 14.5, I think. Still not bad considering how much I'd improved, shaving, oh, about forty strokes off my game.

That is very impressive!

I started about 15.5, wandered upwards to 17.8 or so, got a couple lessons, and now I'm at 12.3. If the weather holds out for a couple more weeks I'm betting I'll break into the 11s, though I think single digits will have to wait for next year.

I went from 25 (iirc) to 20.5. I really wanted to crack the teens, but I'm happy with the improvement.

From when i started 3 years ago per year i have gone 36 to 18 in year one, 18 too 10 in year 2, and 10 to 5.4 in year three, i have not played as well in compitions this year, but as a result have learnt an awful lot more than i would of playing well, next year is my last year as a junior and feel it could be a very succesful year.

After playing about 5 times a year maximum for the last 3 years I really got back into golf for the last 2-3 months of the season. I had a handicap of 9.3 and I have gotten it down to 8.3 playing some decent stuff. Hopefully if I re-dedicate myself as I plan to I can get down to around 5 next season.

If this weekend turns out to have been qualifying I shallbe down to around 7.7/7.9 depending on SSS

Started out this year at 28 and am now at 5.8. I've been playing for one year and two weeks. Started the middle of last October. I do play quite a bit though. I play at least 2 rounds of 18 a week and at least 2 rounds of 9. I got the bug pretty bad. I initially went down to 21 sometime in March, then went down to a 13 and then to a 10 the month before last and now to a 5.8 which I'm pretty thrilled with. My goal now is to learn to putt.

New attitude, new driver, new game improvement irons resulted in starting the year at around 12 and ending the year at my current index of 6.3.

Previous 5 years had me pegged between 12 and 14 so this year was a breakthrough year.

    • Eh. He broke ONE of Tiger's records. Youngest to be ranked #1 in AJGA. It didn't help that Tiger's birthday is in late December, or that Tiger didn't play many AJGA events before he was 15. Did he do any of these things?

    • Day 56: 4/19/2024 Okay, even though I'll be teeing it up in a tournament in less than a week. I couldn't find time to get to the range today.  I spent time on the indoor putting mat.  And I spent time in front of the mirror with my 7 iron. Then again later with the driver.  I also thoroughly cleaned all my clubs. 
    • Just stumbled onto the article.  Totally random and thought it might be interested to hear other thoughts. maybe I am tired of all the LIV crap and  this just caught my attention.
    • Day 1: Spent some time hitting some balls. Working on my hips and a “soft” and straight trail arm.
