I've played the Kingwood Cove course, all the courses at KCC, Tour 18, Timberlane on the Westbank in New Orleans, and English Turn, all at different ages. My highest score was never 130. Under 120. 117, 118... something like that. I don't remember.
How far do drive the ball?
Do you ever hit one out of bounds on the tee? Based on that scorecard you hit a decent number of fairways and put the ball close to the green, you must be a hell of a putter to play bogey golf on your 10th round. You must be able to consistently chip to within six feet on most holes.
Did you know amateurs only make like 10% of puts longer then six feet. You must be a great lag putter also.
I'm not saying your lying but it's pretty unbelievable to have all that down within 10 rounds.
Most guys can't consistently make contact every time within 10 rounds but you can and you hit it straight with no shanks.

I drive about 300 consistently. My putting isn't good. My chipping is what I'm best at. I have a good feel for it.
I usually hit pretty straight on my drives, but I do slice sometimes.
For example... on a par 5, I'll be right near the green in 2. Chip up on the green in 3. Then I'll probably 3 putt and get a 6. Or maybe I'll have to chip twice, then 3 putt and get a 7.
It all depends. I can mess up or hit a great shot from anywhere. Being inconsistent is my problem. The ability to consistantly hit good shots is what practice would do.
