How do you figure?
18 holes, 18 tee shots. Say 3 of those are par 3's, you have 15 approaches from the fairway. So, 18 tee shots+15 approaches=33 shots, assuming you hit 100% of the greens in reg.
Say you hit 75% of your greens. Leaves you 14 or so chips to the green. Assuming you make no chips, and two putt every green:
33+14=47 shots before putts. Add 36 for putts, you're sitting at 83. Not too far off what he's quoting here.
If he cuts 9 strokes off (25% of his putts), he's shooting par.
Easy game, hey?
Nice shooting Woosey.
