i do so many things and yet got prob trying to hit <100.... dun say birdies, even pars are hard to come by.... except double-pars are easy......

Hi Jaketang,

Dun be dishearten... it took me quite while to break the 100 duck oso... I still remember the days when I had difficulty breaking 100 and one of my golfing pal told me to break down my score into 'strokes to green' and 'no. of putts'.

With the new scoring method, I was able to identify area which I am weak in, rather than just frown on those double pars. (You can make some side remarks on your score cards like 'water', 'sand bunker', 'OB' etc) It helps to review your game after each round.

I find it useful in identifying area of weakness and I can target what to practice during range sessions. Of cos in the beginning... almost everything got problems! hehe... but I thought practicing on the short games helps bring down the score most... Hope this helps!

tx alvin... a very sincere n good advise...

perhaps now i m goin into a period of low morale and lack of confidences all together..... maybe i shld take a few weeks break away from golf..

nonetheless, tx for the advise.

Don't. Instead focus on practicing your short game more - chipping, pitching, and putting. Also work on driving accuracy so you don't have to play your irons from funny positions on the fairway.
