Impossible to guess a handicap based on 1 iron swing.  That might be your best swing, or your worst.  Your short game might be awful, or it might be fantastic.

Based on 1 solo swing, in a backyard, off of a matt, into a net.... I'd guess around a 12.

I know people with worse swings that are low handicaps but they are older and have been around the block a few times, and know how to score. Adding everything up I guess a 9. I also guess that as soon as that net gets a little more age on it those fancy windows across the fence have a 30% chance of staying intact.

I see good balance on the set up and minimal head movement and pretty good tempo for swinging in slippers in the back yard below freezing. Hard to say you may swing really well but don't control your shots as well or might have a short game that's still a work in progress, I'm gonna say single digits between 3-8

Haha thanks, but it's an 11. My long game is pretty decent but my short game is not really good so I lose some strokes per round cuz of it

    • Day 4- Slow, short swings with short practice club. 
    • Day 119: 4/24/24 Chipping and pitching followed by putting through 50 mm gates.
    • @boogielicious and I are definitely in for the Stay & Play and will need the extra night's stay on Friday. I don't know what the plans are for our group on Friday but even if we don't make it for dinner with the rest of the Friday arrivals, I'll be more than happy to meet up somewhere for a beer or something.
    • Taking your dispersion and distance in consideration I analyzed the 4 posible ways to play the hole, or at least the ones that were listed here. I took the brown grass on the left as fescue were you need to punch out sideways to the fairway and rigth of the car path to be fescue too.  Driver "going for the green"  You have to aim more rigth, to the bunker in order to center your shotzone in between the fescue.  Wood of 240 over the bunkers I already like this one more for you. More room to land between the fescue. Balls in the fescue 11% down from 30% with driver. Improve of score from 4.55 to 4.40. 4 iron 210 yards besides the bunkers.    Also a wide area and your shot zone is better than previous ones. This makes almost the fescue dissapear. You really need to hit a bad one (sometimes shit happens). Because of that and only having 120 yards in this is the best choice so far. Down to 4.32 from 4.40. Finally the 6 Iron 180 yards to avoid all trouble.    Wide area an narrow dispersion for almost been in the fairway all the time. Similar than the previous one but 25 yards farther for the hole to avoid been in the bunkers. Average remains the same, 4.33 to 4.32.  Conclusion is easy. Either your 4iron or 6 iron of the tee are equaly good for you. Glad that you made par!
    • Wish I could have spent 5 minutes in the middle of the morning round to hit some balls at the range. Just did much more of right side through with keeping the shoulders feeling level (not dipping), and I was flushing them. Lol. Maybe too much focus on hands stuff while playing.
