ok.. l have been playing golf for about 2 years now.. l started out shooting 114 108 stuff like that..in 2 months l shot 92 97 99 consistently 90s. l stayed with that for about 5 months then l started shooting 89 88 90 consistently then about 6 months after that l started low 80s consistently and then about 5 months ago l shot 70s consistently ... now l am back up in the low 80s but cant seem to shoot a 70... is that normal to get worse before you get better???

yes! beginners slump! happes to everyone! ull grow out of it!

l am not sure but did you switch clubs or something? cuz l got worse til l got used to them.

how old r u?
if u practice enough it should not happen.
it could just be ur short game too.

If you are changing your stroke in an effort to get better, yes. Otherwise, it sounds like you are just going through a slump. Golf is such a mental game, it could be anything.

Yeah. When l started and somehow l could hit beautifully with no problems, but then l started worrying and thinking about all the things l have to do right and l started hitting crap. l do not know if this is the same with you but just forget everything and try to relax. l was doing a school golf club at my local range and hitting all these balls rubbish trying to do everything right. The last ball l thought ''What the hell'' and hit it about 150 yards. Just try to relax

I've been playing for ten years and that still happens to me.

THERE ARE PLATEAUS WHICH ONE REACHES IN GOLF THAT ARE HARD TO BREAK. AT TIMES WHEN ONE IS CONSCIOUS OF THE GAME THE RESULTS GET WORSE. THEN A SHOT, A GOOD BREAK OR A GREAT DRIVE BRINGS EVERYTHING BACK INTO PERSPECTIVE AND THE PLATEAU IS CONQUERED.DON'T WORRY FOR YOU WILL GET BACK TO THE NORMAL GAME.

Absolutely, l still have those days and weeks where l shoot 10 over my handicap. No worries we all go through it.

Yes it is. l know that, because I've been playing since l was 6 (10 years).

l was shooting scores l had not shot in 3 years this spring, because I'd let a couple flaws get into my swing. Now l am back to shooting in the high 70s, low-mid 80s because I've corrected those. My scores have been a little higher recently because l have not practiced my short game. Practice is a key part in helping your game, and your short game is where you score.

yes it is. l went from shooting 80 is to low 70 is than had a lesson and struggled to break 90. a lot of the time you have to get worse to get better. thats golf
