My goal this year was to move into single numbers with my handicap. I joined a new golf course that was 18 holes and a little more difficult(128 slope from the blues) plus got new clubs.

My score reposted while I was on vacation last week and it was a 9.5:) That doesn't take into account a couple of other low scores including a 2 under 70. My next goal is to get under 5 by next year at this time.

Congratulations! Great feeling to move into single-digits. Now keep it there ... !

BTW -- a gross 2-under is pretty darm spectacular for a 10 handicap. Many 3-5 handicappers struggle to shoot under par - nice work!

It's a pretty easy course. A 9-hole track that measures 2836 yards with a slope of 95. The par fives are both reachable in two measuring 460 and 420. I shot 37 on the front and got hot on the back with three birds and no bogeys. It was still pretty cool though, my first round under par. I have shot 72 at that course 3 times with one of them coming in the club championship last year. 77 is my best score on any other course.

Congratulations. It is my goal to get to a single digit as well. Unfortunately, my handicap has gone up from a 10 to a 10.8. I am playing better though but it is in best ball tournaments so I haven't been entering scores.

      Athletic Motion Golf Video Featuring Our Own Erik Barzeski

      That was a good watch. When I started working on pelvis in the backswing. I thought, this sounds contradictory to those leg straightening threads on the site. Erik has already done a correction. Then the last lesson we went more down the route of feeling the right knee gains flex. It doesn’t, but the feeling keeps my knee position in a good range. Also, I just realized how much extra work my right hip needed to do to stabilize the body with the proper weight shift. Those glute and hip stabilizers got worked. 🤣 I wish this evolution in the golf instruction happened 20 years ago! 😭

      By tacks451 · Posted

      I've been Playing Golf for: 40 yrs My current handicap index or average score is: 4.0 factor My typical ball flight is: Straight however sometimes slight draw. The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: squirt to the right due to to much arm not enough turn.

      Athletic Motion Golf Video Featuring Our Own Erik Barzeski

      The first issue Erik spoke about is something we worked on for my swing during both GEARS sessions. GEARS was showing my pelvis center moving towards the ball during the back swing. I wasn’t the 4” guy though! This forced me to correct on the downswing to give myself space. My hip rotation was to high as well. We corrected it by first getting the weight off my heels in my stance and getting my posture correct. Then the feel was shifting back into my right hip at a 45 degree angle. This kept my pelvis center from moving towards the ball at the start of the backswing. I also didn’t sway back as much as I felt I did because of the angle I was shifting. Feel Ain’t Real. The cool thing about GEARS is as you work on something you can see the exact (Real) change happening. On video, it is much harder to spot this issue because of the 2D nature of filming. But I know what to look for now. Sadly, I was hurt all last year and most of this year so I really haven’t been able to work on it much. I did do a lot of backswing work though.
