So you are scoring over 100 for 18 holes, don’t be so hard on yourself so was I when I first started. Golf is fun when you are starting out but now you are getting serious it becomes more difficult, or so it would seem. Sometimes it feels like the course itself is against you and from a point of view, it is. The course is always changing, the grass is growing, the wind is up, or down, and yesterday's rain isn’t helping either!
Breaking the sub 100 milestone requires 2 things. The right mindset and practice. You could walk on to the course and swing the club the exact same way, and hit the same target you did yesterday but if your mindset differs it changes your game. It can be frustrating and you start questioning yourself. Why am I not improving?! I hit that mark yesterday. Why haven’t I improved?! Unofficial tip, don’t be so hard on yourself, Rome wasn’t built in a day.
To help you break that sub 100 milestone let's break down the 18 holes into a few possibilities. On average a 99 game is 5.5 strokes/ shots per hole, keep that in mind when you go past a par 3 hole.
Now let's break that down into strokes per hole. To achieve 99 you will need.
Or in golf terms
All that equals 18 holes with a score of 99
