State of my game

Since the temp has gone up and I’ve played a bunch of rounds the game is getting better. I’m feeling good about my ball striking and my short game is improving. My last 3 scores are 73, 73, 71 and I haven’t been making many putts. I played 31 holes yesterday evening and shot -1.

Since the season officially started here on April 1st, my state handicap has gone down from a 1.6 to a 1.4. Baby steps.

I track my golf statistics at The Golf Space. Below is the summary of my last 20 rounds:

I am just starting to keep track of my stats…

I am paying really close attention to my GIR and shots inside 100yds.

I figure if I can up my GIR to 8-10 a round I could break 80.

I obviously need to eliminate 3 or more putts too – but I have been really consistent speed/distance wise my last 2 rounds.

Putting is an area where you can save a ton of strokes. If you 3putt 6 times a round you could save at least 6 strokes and maybe more if you one putt…

You are the stats king, bro. I can hardly keep track of what I shot, which is probably a good thing.
