I'm with rexicon. To me, a well-rounded golfer can bring their game to any course and get the desired result (in this case, a single-digit round). If you are going to limit yourself to one course, make sure it's a difficult one. I'm proud of where my game is now for a variety of reasons, but one of the main ones is because I've rarely played the same course twice this year and my best round was on the most difficult of all of them. One of those discount memberships might be the way to go to get some variety in your game. We're lucky that we live in Florida, where you can't throw a rock and not hit a golf cart driving by. There are plenty of options out there. Whatever you decide, best of luck! You've made some great progress so far.

Dang you guys really need to find better deals. I pay $44 a month for unlimited 9 hole and range on a top 20 Course in Ohio(according to GolfDigest,it was designed by Pete Dye).

There aren't many in Florida for less than 300/month here in FL that include a cart. Pricing is regional and memberships in FL are not cheap. I need a cart, because I have had 2 operations on my right knee.

In the bag:
Driver: Rapture V2, 9 degree, stiff shaft
Fairway Woods: X-Hot 3 wood
Hybrid: 3H
Irons: J36 PC 4-PW Project X 6.0 Shafts, FlightedWedges: CG14, 50 54 and 58 degree Putter: Guerin Rife 2 Bar with Winn grip B330S Pro V1x

Consider the possibility that your shot-making skills are good enough for you to have a single-digit handicap, but you're being held back because of the way you play the game. You might be making the wrong decisions about what shot to hit, or what club to use, or how to play a given hole, or what to do when you get in trouble. If you are just as much over par on your worst three holes as you are on the other fifteen, that might be a sign this is the case.

    • Day 48. Got out at lunch to the range to hit some driver shots. Haven’t had much practice there. Focused on setup suggested by @iacas and found some very playable results. I did try to hit a couple of bunker shots after that with much less success 🙃
    • Got a rare birdie on #18 Par 5.  Drive was good and left me in range of the green.  I was @ 210 from the center and needed @ 180 to clear a hazard area.  Green had bunkers lest, right and on back. had been struggling and most shots were short so I took the 225 club figuring back of green hit well. i did hit it well, @ 229 per SS and dead on—kind at the pin.  Ended up @ 1 foot off the back in short rough and lucky for me it was a back pin placement.  Chipped about 15 feet leaving a 3 feet putt for par which I sunk.  
    • Yea, so to clarify for me. I do not feel the clubface much in the swing. I feel the weight of the club. I can feel if I hit the club off the heel or toe. When I try to feel if the clubface is open or closed in the swing, I feel it more with my hands, and less of the clubhead. I would classify majority of my swings as not feeling like the clubface does much of all. It feels like I hold the clubface open. In the finish, it doesn't feel like my left hand faces the ground. It feels more like it faces the sky. I will try to be more aware of this, but it was just the sensation I got when I was making what felt like good swings. For the most part, I was hitting slight draws or slight pushes.  On this golf trip, I had to hit a low 8 iron around a tree to the green. I made an alignment adjustment, and actively try to roll my hands a bit more to get it to sling around the corner. I do have a habit of not adjusting how the clubface comes through impact, and I can still hit the ball straight-ish even moving the ball way back in my stance and trying to swing out more.  Yea, my feels are more hands and arms, less actually feeling the clubface. 
    • That truly had me laughing. Thanks If anyone is interested Sun Day Red is live. I clicked on the hats, seem they are sold out. Shorts 130 bucks, shirts 120, everything seems to be sold out already, at least from what I clicked on. 130 for shorts, I'll pass.
