Firstly, apologies if this topic is in a wrong section of this forum... I am a 17 handicapper and have been playing for about 3 years now. I play approximately once a week and hit the range and practice short game about two/three times a week. My question is, if I played about 3 times a week and practiced at the range and short game for about 3-4 hours every other day, will I be able to reduce my handicap to say 9 or 10 in 2-3 months ? Has anyone here ever accomplished that or does anyone know someone who has? Thanks Cheers Ray

Ray,

It can be done.  You need to determine where the weak points in your game are and work on them.  Start from the hole back with putting, short game, irons and then driver.  Tracking your play is also a great way to ID issues.  A program like Scorecard can help there.

      I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning.

      Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
