Golf is a wonerful game but there are times when we love it and there are times when we hate it. We go to the golf course and hit a bad shot and the good players know how to shake that off and go hit their next. we all have our good rounds and our bad rounds. but i wonder sometimes, why am I so inconsistent with my scores. my last few rounds were 83, 73, 64, 76, and 84.

why is it some days i 3 putt a lot and others all my putts go in? why is it some days im hitting every green but others i barely hit 3? some days i hit a natural fade. but others i hit a natural draw?

I am a really good golfer and im only 18 i want to be a pro but first i really need to learn how to be consitent.


Hi there I am 15 and you are a better golfer than I am. However I always mark down stats like fairways hit in regulation, greens in reg. and putts. I have a general feel of how many greens I should be hitting on an AVERAGE day. For me I can't dwell on hitting 3 less greens than when I shot my best round of my life. But if you really are playing significantly worse than a normal day take a breath and relax. Don't try to go for the "shot of the year". Don't try to sink 20 foot Downhill putts. Be smart and don't make a "Bogey" a Triple Bogey because you tried to hit a green from 240 out in the rough. In my opinion it's all game management, so far it's helpe me become more consistent. I hope you reach your goal of becoming a pro and thanks for reading my advice! good luck and let us know how you do!

    • Day 125: jam packed day, so only had time for a little putting on my mat. Worked on getting the handle slightly more upright at address primarily.
    • Day 309 - More of the same, grip/backswing/downswing rotation. This time with the Divot Board.
    • Day 50 - 2024-11-19 Hit about 20 balls focusing mostly on the backswing. That's going to be my November and December.
    • They need to do something to speed  up play. They could randomly  time  players. One  idea would  be  if a group gets  out  of  position they are disqualified. If its a group of  3 and  its  1 player playing like  molasses i can imagine an exciting interaction, lol
    • I agree with @dennyjones, a suspension of some meaningful duration would be better than getting bounced from the Tour. They might consider experimenting each week. It might generate a bit of interest. I like the idea of a visible shot clock. If a player and their caddy can’t decide on a strategy and pull the trigger in XX seconds (30? 45? 60?), one stroke penalty. Give each player 2 resets a round. The clock starts when the last player to hit’s ball stops moving. Other pace ideas could be used every couple events until a consensus is reached to adopt or ditch an idea.
