9 over par on the back 9 is some proper no-nonsense bogey golf. Nice work bud!


PTbone20

I thought the back 9 went really well. Getting more consistent making solid contact.


plzjustkeepgoin

It’s crazy how much scores drop when you just focus on good contact first and foremost


boots2scoot

Came here to say this. That was a legit back 9. Something to be really proud of.


PTbone20

Thank you!

Bogey golf is always the goal. Then start focusing on more pars. You're scores will drop quick.


CTzoomin

This is what I did when I started. I’m a year and a half in and shooting 90-94 regularly. I have 4 90’s but have yet to break it :( Keep at it OP!! Love to see this. That back 9 is nice!


CTzoomin

One other thing I did was start focusing on things like: how many shots over regulation it’s taking you to hit greens? how many putts over the allowed 2 per hole? When you barely miss a green and have to chip, are you regularly giving yourself a decent look at making the next putt? Asking these helped me a lot when I was shooting around 100. I would practice the areas that seemed to be losing me the most strokes until they became one of my stronger areas. Rinse and repeat and you’ll start dropping strokes off from each aspect of the game.

randomdudefromMI

Now you're thinking 'if I can put up a 45 on the back then I can do it on the front too'


DrJiggsy

I fail to execute this exact plan on the regular


PTbone20

Great way to start my spring break.


SteveOSS1987

Bogeys get a bad rap, but once you got on that bogey train, you were golden. I love me some bogeys.


Sammodile

Woo hoo! I never have and it’s a goal for me! Nice!!!


TheCoolestCannon

Congrats dude!!! Now you have a new goal. Break 90!


ChrisR49

Just looking at the holes on the card, I would have thought the lower score would have been on the front! Congrats!


lovemesomewine

14-18 look brutal from the back tees


ChrisR49

Yeah, I'd be hitting driver on a par 3, never a fun thing. Not to mention having to carry water close to greens.


Andrias2020

Nice job bud.


IllstudyYOU

Congrats! How long have you been playing for?


PTbone20

Started playing Christmas 2020. Been playing irregularly due to there not being a public course near me at college.


IllstudyYOU

Ooo that sucks. Where ya from?


PTbone20

Northeast Texas. Go to school at Southern Arkansas Univeristy. (Junior engineering major)


IllstudyYOU

Ahhh that's dope. Sorry about your golf situation. But hey, at least you can play just about all year. I'm in Canada, our courses are frozen for like 6 months lol


batchyyyyy

Nice work!


tinymember469

Nice work. Goals are important.


bourbon-n-bacon

All about the progress, congrats dude!


Captaintattoobeard

Noice buddy! Congrats


CrayonTendies

Congratulations


redskinsfan30

Congrats! Always a great milestone to hit!


Free-Reindeer-5135

Nice job! And good recovery from those triples at the beginning, I might have let those sink me mentally for the rest of the round.


johanseth

Congrats! Great back nine.


EyestotheWest

Let’s fucking go! Now break 95. Also, go play Tempest. It’s a quality track in the area.


flipcup83

Congrats bud…glad you’re enjoying the game!


quooston

Congrats buddy, the first major milestone done


DryPear6

Congrats!! Im on the same Mission!


Jonno250505

Well done. Keep at it.


IntoTheWild2369

45 on the back is phenomenal!!


PTbone20

Thank you!


AutisticTaupe_6030

This is my goal before the end of the year. Birdied the 18th last round to score 100 even. Getting so close 🤞🏼


Moneybusinesslove

Is it “breaking 100” if the course is 71? Asking as a beginner and guy who shoots 120 lol


PTbone20

I would say yes


Moneybusinesslove

At what point is it no? 71 isn’t too different but if you go go a 65 course it’s a big difference


Elky66

I broke 100 today for the first time as well. I’ve been golfing for about 1 year. Still haven’t had a birdie but Im hoping that comes soon.


Independent-Choice-4

Wow the turnaround on the back nine was impressive! Congrats!


flying_cactus

Congratz! Going from 100 to 90 is all about keeping the ball in bounds 90 to 80 is all about dialing in your wedge and short game 80 to 70 is all about dialing in your putting. Good luck to the rest of your journey!


ppjn348

Awesome! Before you know it, you’ll be breaking 90!

thrawn3385

What tee box are you playing?


PTbone20

Green


thrawn3385

Right on! Good shooting. Keep having fun as you progress!

Curious, how long did it take you to beat your dad? My 12 year old has beaten me on a par 3 course but he played red to my white. He keeps that up and he's moving back 😂 Honestly though it awesome to play with your parents or children. My dad is a bit too old now with too many back problems but I hope to keep it a thing with my son. Even if both of us never get better than terrible, I hope we still play terribly together for a long time.


PTbone20

This is the first time I've ever beaten him. I started getting back into golf in late 2020.


CTzoomin

My dad beat me by a stroke today but every single round comes down to the 18th green. Love playing with the pops.


Sikudo

David needs to pick it up.


PTbone20

That's my dad. Beat him for the very first time yesterday.


guiltypartie101

Been playing golf with my dad for 20 years now, he will be 80 this year. Enjoy it my dude, keep at it.


Thick-Fee2720

Great work mate! That’s awesome


Duubzz

I guess you gotta go buy a putter or something now huh? Congrats dude!


PTbone20

I'm looking at getting a new putter. I just need some more cash. Hopefully I can get it with my next student worker check.
