Big thing that stands out is exactly what you mentioned: putting. 36 putts + multiple 3-putts is where most of those extra strokes came from. Clean that up and you’re knocking on the door of low 80s easily.
Quick takeaways:
Putting: Focus on lag putting (20–40 ft) to avoid 3-putts
GIR (33%): Decent, but better approaches = more birdie chances
Consistency: 44 front / 43 back is a good sign
Par 5s: Some missed scoring chances there
Simple plan:
Work on distance control in putting and tighten up short irons—those two alone could save several strokes.
Also, something that helps with focus (weirdly enough) is keeping your mind sharp between rounds—I’ve gotten into the habit of doing a few quick daily trivia questions. It sounds random, but it actually helps with concentration and decision-making on the course.
