Number of 5SK Earned vs. Handicap - Page 3

All this just makes me want to work harder at it.

Damn you! :)

That's definitely a great way to look at it.  Obviously short game plays a factor into becoming a single digit but the graph is accurate.  If you can consistently do Keys #1 and 2, you're going to hit it pretty good compared to most golfers.  And your misses will be more salvageable than most golfers.  Also if you can do the first two Keys well, then your Key#3 probably isn't that far off.  Would be pretty rare to see a bogey golfer with Keys #1 and 2, excluding senior players and even then :-)

PS: I like the plot very much, although I'm not sure anyone ever really "gets" 4 & 5 100%* at the same time, except for short stretches, during which they win majors!

Yeah like Erik said, good senior players, guys that were really good players in the 60's, 70's.  Grew up with a few of those guys, awesome partners in money games.

I like the way you are thinking!!!

I do like how the 5 keys are broken down as golf does get too hung up on the technical. I think a lot of the finer details happen as a result of these keys,very easy to understand.

I'm no regular golfer but do practice in my net and garden and the range regulary. I'm assuming that the keys relating to handicap mean you own those keys. I know that 1&2 I can do most of the time. Key 3 is one I struggle with,4 isn't bad either my ballflight tells me that and my mechanics and 5 I haven't even bothered to practice much apart from short game shots where a little bit of invention goes a long way. That's a very high level of golf anyway.

I certainly don't own any key but am close to doing so and if I can play more golf I would improve quite quickly but I'm not even a weekend warrior at the moment,just a bi-monthly player,hence my handicap. I need more time on the course but I feel you could play great golf if you were above 90% on the first 4 keys. Don't know how that would relate to handicap with that percentage but if it's only one poor shot every 10 swings and that poor shot is relative to that level,then as has been summised by Erik it's a low handicap golfer.

Just looking for some general opinions here:

If one had to choose between buying the 5sk DVDs or spending the equivalent money on three months of evolvr which do you think would be more beneficial? I have very limited funds but I really want to give myself the best opportunity to improve this year.

Do Evolvr.  They will be instructing you with the 5 Simple Keys anyway.  The instruction will be specific to your needs.

If you had to choose one, I agree with spending the money on Evolvr.  Great value for having some really great instructors take a look at your swing, have them identify what Key(s) you need and how to go about it.

Thanks. That's kinda what I was thinking too. I'm guessing that the "my swing videos" from my basement are inadequate for anaylsis. Assuming that's true 'll need to wait another 2-4 weeks before the ranges open 

As far as price plans for evolvr, do understand correctly that I can choose the monthly option with no minimum length? IE: I don't need to use it for a year to benefit from the monthly rate? Could I use it for 3 months and cancel without any penalty? I only ask because a big portion of the year is lost to snow and ice and I dont want to be locked into something I can't use.

Thanks.
