re: Breaking 80

Same handicap as you. I shot a 79 from the 2 ups last year and a 78 earlier this year. Honestly, it was just one of those days where it all clicked, made three putts 10-15ft and happened to not drive anything OB. Just got lucky honestly and playing a bunch of rounds to have a lucky day.

I did notice that my rounds got to be a lot less stressful when I started keeping my score on paper and not counting until the end of the round. I used to track all my rounds on an app and would update my score each hole. I would end up being too fixated on a number during the round and it would throw my whole mental game off.
