Shall go for the book as recommend "Golf is Not a Game of Perfect". As far as course management and mentality strength, i am idoit. Whenever i bomb a 280 meter - 300 meter, i always take out my fairway wood or rescue club and go for two on par 5. you bet out of n time, i hit once on the green. Let's discuss mental, i hit two over on hole number 5. Calculating i may hit below 40. I start ...... My final score on first nine 45. What a fool. Stupid as stupid does.

I think my course management is really bad. My approach shot always without fail attack pin. All sort of problems come - bunker, rough , top ball & etc The another situation i face the score is very good halfway through 18 hole, aiming for breaking my personal best. Yet the ending score is depressing. Probably i give myself too much pressure. Focusing on too much the score I remember a friend told me to lower expectation & go for fat green or lay out for another shot. you may have a better score. Don't you agree? Personally i don't buy the idea. Attack! Attack! Attack!

As a newcomer to this game, i would say basic is far more important than score. Build a strong fundamental that will last long. I really get rid off today 85 next day 95. First nine 42 second nine 50. It is inconsistency.

i have been playing golf for 1 1/2 years with score in the range of 90 with best score 85. let's me introduce myself. Fundamentally, i am lousy golfer despite my scores in the sense : 1. grip is wrong - strong grip on right hand. 2. takeaway - clubhead pointing anyway .... 3. downswing - casting, out-to-in & etc. 4. impact - flipping, right hand not bend.... you may argue my score should, by theory, stay in range of 100. luckily my driver save me with 250 meters to 270 meters. recently, i went for pro lesson. On the first lesson, the pro slap me with all my wrong basic and revamp it. Lately, i have been playing with score in the range of 85. Hopefully, it can go down below 80 by end of this year.i am glad i change. i did notice a lot of golfers can play good score yet with wrong basic. So how you rate yourself?????????? Good score or Good golfer?????
