  • I broke 85 after 1 year of playing golf and only two weeks after breaking 90 for the first time. In future videos, I will share the exact steps, drills, techniques, and lessons I have learned to improve as fast as I have. I picked up the sport of golf out of college at the age of 22, so if I can do it, so can you guys. If that interests you, consider subscribing to follow along. Other than that, thank you! I really appreciate all the support I have gotten so far!

    Great video. Breaking 80 soon! Small detail and probably an annoying edit but I like when the graphic shows the 1,2,3,4,5 for a par 5. Feels like you’re destined to make bogey when it counts up to 7.

      @@Brian-lj3jc I appreciate it Brian! And yeah you are totally right. I want to change it but don’t exactly know how. Once I get more comfortable with everything else that goes into making the videos, I will figure out how to do that. I appreciate you pointing that out though because there are probably a bunch of other details I’m not even aware of, so I love when anyone has good suggestions like that 🤝 Thank you!

    Swing tempo and technique definitely looks at a much higher level than what your scoring shows, when you get your ball striking even more consistent you will have no problem going low. You have great fundamentals for sure

      Not really. You need a lot of time and money to play and practice. Golf doesn’t require anybody to be physically gifted to be good! Most people arent good cuz they play maybe once a week without no level of meaningful practice. How do you expect to score well playing weekend golf once a week???

      @@nickfish3545 that’s how you know you are close. You are easily capable of breaking 90 if you are able to shoot a 41 through 9. That happened to me so many times before I finally broke 90. I would shoot low 40’s on one 9 and then shoot high 40’s or even low 50’s on the other 9 and blow it every time. Once I broke 90 for the first time, I haven’t shot above 90 since. My first 3 rounds after breaking 90 for the first time were 86, 86, 84.
