The hacker's guide to breaking 100
Throughout
our golfing career, we have all, at one stage or another classed
ourselves as a Hacker, hell lets face the facts, there are some
golfers that will always be hackers. But no matter how much of a
hacker you are, there is always that one big challenge, that one
major hurdle to overcome - breaking the big 3 digits.
- If you're already 25 over the card after 7 holes, don’t worry there is always your adjusted score!
- Concentrate on your game but don’t think about your score.
- For all you hackers out there, never count up your score on the 17th hole and tell yourself you need a double bogey or less to break 100, chances are, you will choke!
- Always carry enough balls in your bag, there is nothing worse than running out of balls when you have a chance to break 100!
- If you miss the ball 3 times off the first tee, its not all over, remember there are still 17 more holes to go.
- Try and play with a better golfer than yourself, you’ll obviously chop the first hole but things will come right when you watch how he/she plays the game.
- For all you superstitious hackers out there don’t put the mockers on yourself. Whatever you do, don’t talk about the way you are playing. For example, don’t say “Oh I’m hitting my driver well today” chances are that you will not hit another good shot with that club for the rest of the round/life.
