I guessed my handicap to be roughly 25, give or take, at the beginning of the year. I finally threw in my last 6 rounds into a handicap calculator and got that number. I doubt I'm

that low, but handicap takes your best rounds into account, and I tend to go really low at a few courses, but struggle at others. Lessons with a good pro are largely responsible for the improvement over the past 3 months, though, combined with 30+ rounds in the past 3 months. Also, people think they should shoot their handicap all the time...which ain't true. It's what you can shoot on a good day (average of best rounds times .96), and shooting below that must mean you're on fire, or getting better, quickly. There's still days I struggle to break 100 - those are mercifully few and far between--but I've gone as low as 80 this year as well.
"Shouldn't you be going faster? I mean, you're doing 40 in a 65..."

    • Well, I have a 2 hybrid, 4 hybrid and then play 6 iron onwards.  My best clubs are probably the 4 hybrid and the PW.  What I find is that loft is your friend in general which is why my 4 hybrid is so much better than my 2 hybrid.  Definitely disproportionately more so than the 5 or so degrees of difference in loft.  If you have hybrids, play them.  And consider loft as your friend.  Invariably you will get up to a loft where anything less will not get you more distance because of your club head speed.  Essentially the faster you swing the less lofted a club you can hit effectively.  For me it is probably a 4 hybrid and maybe a 7 iron though I could improve both with practice
    • Off to my home state of Massachusetts this morning. 9 this afternoon,  18 tomorrow,  and 18 on Saturday. Hoping for some good scores but will be just happy playing with good friends.
