Started this year with a ballooning index....rose up to 21.9 at one point (began around 20). Was great for my brother's Member / Guest, but not where I wanted it (nor an accurate reflection of my golfing, IMO).
Anyway, been steadily getting back on track through the summer...broke 90 three times, including an 85. Low 90's on a few tough courses helped even more.... My handicap was 20.4 yesterday....today....18.3!!!! gues I am now "officially" a bogey golfer.... My brother is gonna be p*ssed come the Member / Guest next year..... ;^) |

Well it looks like you're in good company. I did the same today dropping from 20.8 to 19.6. I started the year at 24.3 so I've definitely made some progress.

Mine started 18 months ago at 18.6 and now I can't seem to get into single digits. Just keep playing and the handicap will melt away

Nice job. I know what you've been dealing with. I worked REALLY hard to get under 10 and got down to an 8.8 about this time last year. I then steadily rose all the way up to a 13 a few weeks ago. I seem to have found my groove again and my last 4 scores have been 77, 79, 80 and 82. This should bring me down to about 11.6 and the next revision.
Great work. |

congrats on your new handicap and, if you didn't know, to be a bogey golfer for a man is having a handicap between 17.5 and 22.4 and being able to drive 200 yards and reach a 370 yard par 4 in 2. so you already were "officially" a bogey golfer. i, on the other hand was at an 18.2 yesterday and one of my old scores dropped off and i was back up to a 20.7 on the same day i finally broke 90 on my home course, which didn't make it in time for the revision date. now i have to wait 2 more weeks before my handicap comes back down, oh well. i figure if i can post a couple more good scores i should be o.k. for a while.
