Hi All,

i just joined but have been reading the forums for a while. I have been playing for 6 years and am at a 10 index. 

I have decided to really improve and dedicate practice time. I have spent a lot of time practicing short game and feel good inside 50 yards. 

My latest swing change has really messed me up. I don't think I can play in the current state so I am just working on the short game 4 days a week 2 hour sessions.

I think it is time to call in a pro to really get me to my goal of low single digit. Does anyone have advice on someone in North Orange County that can work with me.

Thanks in advance!

That would be great! I would like to get on a regular lesson schedule if you can put me in touch with him.

Thanks for the mention but I'm no longer teaching.

@BK1, I'd be happy to recommend some qualified instructors near where you live.

    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.
