Finally broke 100!!

My two goals for 2012 were to get to a level where (1) I could comfortably play with different groups without being the worst player in every foursome, and (2) to break 100 in a legit round.  After a bunch of 101s and 103s and 97s with mulligans, today was the day.

A legit 98 on a tough course 70.6/131 from the blacks.

I know there are tons of people on this forum who are scratch or single handicappers so it probably doesn't sound like much, but a year ago I was 125-130 on any given day.  Booyah!

Congrats! I was pretty happy when I first broke 100. But, keep at it and keep working on your game. I broke 90 only 4 months after that.

Congrats man this is a big deal! I've still yet to break that magic number of 100 myself. Last time out I shot a horrific 106, but enjoy it man. Next up.........90!

Congrats man, I know the feeling well. Had my first legit sub-100 round a couple of weeks ago, and it's a really good feeling. Gunning for 90 now.

yeah, I know it's going to be a LOT harder to go from 98 to 89 than it was to go from 125 to 98 but I'm going for it...

Nice job!  Just broke 100 myself last weekend and it still feels great.

Congrats. I think this where you are no longer a "hacker" and just barely over a bogie golfer. This is where golf gets enjoyable. You still have alot of ways to cut out strokes and you can really see yourself starting to improve. Its all about consistency. Keep it up.

Congrats OP. I worked a long time to break 100 and even longer to break 90! Keep it up

Congratulations to you!  Crashing through this barrier on the black tees at a tough course had to feel especially rewarding.

Nice job. The one idea you might want to entertain is spending more time on your short game. Last year, at this time, I had a 14.5 handicap when I started to live on the chipping and putting greens until I was evicted for winter. It helped me a ton, even though there's always room for more improvement. Keep at it and remember to have fun.
