Well, its not pretty but I finally broke the 100 for a first timer playing only a year. I shot a 97 but it wasn't the prettiest. here are my stats from the game.

Fairway- 3 of the 18 (Some had decent lies, but others I had to work my shot around trees)

On the green under or on par- 8 of the 18 (Alot of shots were dead straight on the green and one chip shot landed only a foot away from the cup)

One putts- 2 of the 18 (most putts missed were for par, but it was mostly bogey golf today)

As you can see, the results were not pretty and most were down right ugly.

Whats in the Four 5?

I have only broken 100 once, how has your guys' game been since then....is it easy to break 100 more often after already accomplishing it once?

Thanks everyone. It took literally a year to finally break 100. Yes, I took one mulli beccause I went for the green on a 280 yard par 4 hole and I over shot it. It landed on the green and with no bite bounced off the green into a gully no where to be found. I couldve taken a provisional, but the guys I played with ruled only 1 mulligan both front and back.

Also, let me correct my fairway hits. I was also in line for the green but most landed on the rough.

Really strange stats. You must have been close to a lot more fairways to get 8 of 18 GIRs and hit your drives a long way. You should be poised to get in the low 90's soon. My suggestions would be: 1. Don't try to kill your driver, go for accuracy. This may mean learning to stop that slice. 2. Learn game management. Don't always hit your 2nd shot with the longest club in the bag. If you have 250 to the green and you can't hit your longest club but 225, hit a more consistent club to set up your best distance with a short club. Say hit a 6I 160 yds to set up a 90 yd SW. 3. Practice your short game (pitch, chip and putt) more than your driver.

Hope you break 90 real soon!

Thanks. I've been actually practicing my short game more and it paid off. My driving hasn't been right since I started practicing to drive with my body rather than my arms. So the slicing started to come back so Im considering going back to it even though I shouldn't. Game management I never thought about but I will take that into consideration more. For me 8 of the 18 is pretty damn good for me. I can live to be a bogey/double bogey player. I know I'm bound to become a 90's play but I'll be happy not shooting 100's as much. But it will take time. Once I shoot in the 90's again you'll know again because I won't shut up about it. Lol.

Not to rain on your parade but you didnt break 100 if you took a mulligan.

Ya, but it was established before the game was played we are taking 1 mulli front and back. Sorry I dont play by your rules there guy. lol

If the mulli counts as a stroke, I scored a 98. LOL. The mulli wasn't taken on the front but one was taken on the back.

I've played with friends that used to use mulligans. The mulligans save more than a stroke when you know you have them in your back pocket.

They wont play with me anymore because I wont let them break the rules - their scores went up 10 strokes when they had to play right and didnt
have the bailout to save them.

Not saying you didnt have a good round - but it is breaking 100 in your game, not a round of golf.

The funny thing though. During the game, I didnt even think about it. I should've taken a provisional, but I didnt. Im not gonna lose sleep over it.

Congrats! I am determined to break 100 next round. I've only gotten to 104 but I'm sure that I have learned enough and practiced enough at the range to break 100. It will happen! And I wont look back!
