The 7 Golf Decisions That Turn 100s into 80s

Most golfers think breaking 90 is all about hitting better golf shots. I don’t. In this video, I’m sharing the 7 decisions that separate golfers shooting in the 100s from players who consistently shoot in the 80s. From avoiding costly recovery shots to choosing smarter targets, managing your misses, and leaving your ego in the bag, these are the course management principles that can save you 10–20 strokes without changing your swing. If you’re tired of throwing away good rounds with bad decisions, this one’s for you. Let me know in the comments which rule you struggle with the most, and if you enjoyed the video, don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share it with a golf buddy who’s trying to break 90.

I watched this the same day I shot an 80. I felt like I was striping everything today. I was making decisions that you discussed in this video and not playing ego golf!

Excelent and nice video and very clear explanation. A smart play is better than being suffering when you get sand, woods or Water. Thank for sharing!,

Absolutely excellent video sir? Great explanation of good, smart course management golf. I have become a much better golfer in recent years because I have followed the basic principles you outline in your video! Even off the tee, I try my best to determine where I should hit my shot for the best outcome. Thank you for the video! 🤠

I really like how you showed the two point of views of someone who shoots in the 100’s and someone who shoots in the 80’s really nice visual. Watching from Aubrey Tx the best YouTube golf channel

I just recorded my latest 9 hole outing as part of my goal to break 90 by June 2027.
Shocking to hear myself take note of thick wet grass and have trouble chipping short with no adapting.
At high 40's/low 50's I need to eliminate or reduce mis-hits that negate the good decisions.

I was in ornear the fairway from the tee box all day, then shots 2-4 to get to the green and a 2 putt to end the hole. My irons didn't have any distance and my wedges left me short 75% of the time. I did have some good contact and up and over tree shots, but again they were short. My Mizuno 5 wood has changed my game, the driver barely comes out of the bag. When it does, roll a di to determine where it'll go. My game is consistently inconsistent.

New subscriber from Alberta Canada, thanks for the tips on course management. Shot my best round ever yesterday 84. Went to the practice green and then the range before my round.

I need to work on my lag putting then I’ll consistently play bogey golf.

Hi Paul, thanks for another great video. I'm using "don't have blow-up holes" as my mantra. My aim is a round with bogeys and a few "accidental pars". My blow-ups are often on Par 3s where I often end up with a triple after hunting a birdie. Looking forward to the next video. Regards from Bishopbriggs, Scotland.
