Eliminate the Big Numbers

One of the weaknesses in my game right now is the dreaded “big number.” I’ll end up taking an 8 on a hole and lately it seems to end up being the last hole of the day pretty often. On Friday I shot 46-42 with an 8 on hole #18 at Swan Valley. Saturday I shot 39 and didn’t record anything but 3s, 4s, and 5s on the scorecard at Twin Oaks back nine. Sunday it was 47-45 at Currie Municipal West in Midland again with an 8 on #18.

Today is the first day for one of my golf leagues, so I’m looking forward to it. Last year in this league I took the trophy for low actual of the year with one under par 34. All 27 holes at Twin Oaks are wide open, so I can play a simple grip it and rip it style of play. Wish me luck!
