I played back-to-back rounds in November, and shot 81 each time. Once with 26 putts and once with 38. If I can combine the good parts of those two rounds, at least occasionally, I can probably halve my index or at least shoot more 36s like I did my last 9 of the season.
1) Consistently in the 70's
2) Get down to a single digit handicap(was down to about 11 or so before I got laid off and had to take a unexpected break)
3) get to where I can make a 12 to 15 foot putt about 65 or 70% of the time.
4) enjoy the game more. Do not make it like work, it is a hobby.
