Play Bogey Golf
March 9, 2010 by Admin

photo credit: danperry.com The trouble with most players is that they judge their game in relation to par. It's safe to assume that most players will never shoot 72 (par) no matter how much they practice, unfortunate but true. The trouble is that they judge how well they play on how high they are above par. If a scratch player shoots 79 he has reason to complain.
I contend that playing bogey golf should be the goal of the majority of players. Every bogey made would be compared to a par for a scratch player. Every par that's made is comparable to a birdie for a scratch player. The score to shoot for is 90 or, 18 over par (a bogey per hole). Try this method during your next round, the lack of pressure will actually improve your game.
