Right on man! You are doin pretty well I must say. I am hovering arounf shooting a 48 - 55 on the days I play 9 holes. I am like you as well in just starting out this fun/frusterating game! There are days I shoot pretty good for myself and days where all hell brakes loose, but you just gotta keep on keepin on! You learn from every round you play. As long as you see improvement in your game I would say you are doin well

My first 9 holes of a regulation course was a score in the high 70s - despite a summer-plus of driving range and executive courses. I'm impressed.

My first time I shot a 94 in 18 and 40 something on the front and then 50 something on the back 9. I would do the math but I don't really want to.

Keep it up though.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
