All very good points, most of the people I seen that struggle to break 80 its all about tee shots, they top, thin , hit left, hit right, barely 100 yds at times, then it only goes down hill from there, you have to have a certain degree of capability to even begin to think about breaking 80
some good advice if you're close to breaking 80. as others have said, what I see from higher handicap golfers (myself included at 16) is that strategy isn't really the foremost problem some higher handicappers struggle because distance is a huge issue. par 4 at 360 yards when you're not even driving the ball 200 means you're taking 3 shots just to get on the green. that's an insurmountable issue really; strategy won't help there others - like myself - have big misses. my driver swing speed averages at 107 and maxes at 111 so a bad swing off the tee invariably means lost ball or _at best_ chipping for position. this is especially hard when you have a two-way miss and from my experience of other golfers it's really common to see players who both pull and slice (consistent out-to-in path and then poor club face management) you've then got to factor in mishits too - fats, tops, shanks etc - which invariably account for a number of shots each round so #1 priority as you've listed in your description has to be consistency of strike. lowering the mishits, minimising the bad shots. that's the key to lowering scores - THEN strategy can help you lower them further regardless, love watching your videos, keep the content coming :)
Problem is I play a tight course 3 of 9 holes have 50 yards of fairway. 2 more are sucker holes and one is on a hill the hill going right to left. The par 4s are insane
Great post Josh, I'm in that transition as a 9.3 HC working towards scratch over the next two seasons and this is great content for my game.
Thanks man appreciate that!

I agree all thought process though and building in that mindset to do it!
Your describing a 18 /24 handicap mate,not a 14/16 you need to be to think about breaking 80?

Great feedback Duncan appreciate your support mate!
Great video, would you say you generally play better with trolley and getting less fatigued?
100% it’s a massive factor over an 18 hole round
Great video 👍👍
