Playing 6 rounds in 6 weeks ain't going to get you much better . . .

Play at least 27-36 holes per week and hit the range at least twice. Short game, short game, short game practice.

Learn to putt really well. Learn to read greens and work then on speed. Good putting will knock 4-6 strokes off per round.

I've been playing golf off and on for 30 years but for the past year, I've been playing more often (once a week). But I don't go to the range so no practice time. Only time I swing a golf club is on the course. And no lessons because I arrogantly, stubbornly, and stupidly, think that I can eventually figure it out on my own.

Yesterday, I just shot an 82 which is my lowest round ever.

So if it can happen to me, no doubt you'll eventually get there yourself.

I will see you guys next week on the F GOLF thread.

Congrats on the 82!!
