Broke 100 AND 90 for the first time yesterday

[Franksie]

I've been back playing golf for about 2 months now. Yesterday i played at my dads par 69 course and played a round of 87 gross - breaking 100 and 90 for the first time!!!

I'm really happy with this - my previous rounds were 104 and 101 so i had been improving slowly but yesterday i had a change in mindset. I told myself in my head that shooting for bogey on every hole was the way to go - i ignore GIR etc and focussed on keeping myself out of trouble.

I've been having a lot of problems keeping my driver straight so i mainly used my 5 iron and 3 hybrid off the tee and just played a 70% swing all day. My short game was much improved an i only had one 3 putt all round.

I've now posted 3 cards for an official handicap which will come out as 26.3 - i'm hoping i can now play consistently around the 90-95 mark as i'm the first to admit that my 87 was very lucky!

Just thought i'd share with you guys as i was so happy :)

Good job man! Just think, "5's or less on every hole" and you'll get in the 80's consistently before you know it. Golf is all about saving scores (for us mortals that can't do FIR/GIR on every hole).

That was how I broke 90, problem is I still think that way and I am trying to shoot in the 70s.

To the OP - great work. Enjoy it
