    got it down to a 1.8 at the end of this year.. probably because the slope of the course I play is 144.

    Should be higher than in august for sure. Would say 10 if in peak season and 11-12 in off season.

    Got it to +1.2 at one point
    Got it to 2.3 at another.
    Now at 0.2.

    Just when I thought, "I got it," it slipped away. Why does it slip away so quickly and come back so slowly? Stupid game.

    After the stinkfest that was April, May, and June, I managed to get mine down to 7.8 at the end of the season.

    No handicap for many years....I shot 44 for 9 holes this summer, then 108 for 18 holes, then 51 for nine holes. That's all the golf I have played in the past two years.

    .........I thought I might drive out there and drag your butt to the nearest golf course next spring but I checked out where you live in relation to Pittsburgh Pa. and Wow!!! that would be a drive so scratch that thought

    My handicap? Too high for my liking at 7.8. Then again I had a wee health issue which seemed to have an adverse effect on my index!

    If I had put all my November rounds in then I think I woujld be around 7. However most of those rounds were played under lift clean and place rules. So I did not bother to put the scores in.

    So next year I have to work hard on lowering it back down to around 6. If I can get it down to that number I will be happy.

    I play for quantity, not quality
    My opinions are my own, I do not follow others.

    Pretty impressive. 63% of the people who have filled out the poll are between 0-10.

    when you consider something like only 5% of golfers will ever break 100.... i find this either impressive... or unbelievable

    These numbers are somewhat skewed statistically since this poll is of a self-selected group.

    I.e. golfers who are crazy enough to be reading a golf website in December when it's snowing outside.

    And the ones who do have higher scores usually don't register a handicap. Like me I will probably start next year.

    I swear at 23 i shouldn't be putting in the 50+/weeks yet!!

    Getting better

    With the swing changes I have made this year, my handicap balooned at the start of the year but has steadily gone down to the current 12.2. I am sure with more practice on the swing over the winter that it will be even better next year, hoping to be down to single digit by the end of 2007 but hey, that's a goal, hard work will get me there, I hope!!

    I thought as a across the board average only 10% of golfers shot below 90. Am I wrong or do we have a lot of good golfers on our forum? If so look out TGNs
    Does the 2nd hole-n-one come easier ?

    You shouldn't be counting these rounds anyway. The season ends Oct.31 as far as handicapping goes.
