8 common sense tips to lower your scores
When you’re playing golf — especially when you’re working to improve something specific in your game — your head is often jumbled with so many thoughts that you forget to use common sense. You can save critical strokes on the course, however, by thinking logically, and not being bogged down by endless swing thoughts and fears.
Here are my 8 common sense tips to help you get through your next round of golf in the lowest number of shots possible.
Don’t bite off more than you can chew
When deciding what line to take over a water hazard off the tee, everyone seems to select the one that would get them across on a “good drive.” Positive thinking is great, but what about those shots you don’t catch perfectly? I’ve watched people hit countless poor drives in a row, only to come to a shot over the corner of a lake and use the carry yardage for their best drive rather than making an adjustment based on how they were swinging that day. What happens next is rarely pretty.
Use history to your advantage
Obviously, it would be nice to come out of the gates every round with your A-game, but that’s often not the case. That’s why I suggest playing the first six holes conservatively, and then using that information over the next 6-12 holes to create an adjusted game plan. If you’re controlling the ball well over the first six holes, you know you can be a little more aggressive on the next six holes, and vice versa.
Have a go-to shot off the tee
So it’s the last hole of your match and you must hit the fairway; what shot do you hit on you best days, your average days and your bad days?
All golfers need a tee shot they can rely on regardless of the way they are playing. It might curve a lot, not go very far or fly really low, but you know it’s going to finish on the fairway. Unfortunately, most don’t have such a shot, so if their A-game isn’t working then it’s a crapshoot off the tee.
Have an exit strategy
The best article I have ever read on golf strategy was an old Golf Digest interview with Lee Trevino when I was about 12 years old, and I still remember it more than 30 years later. They asked him why he felt he he had an advantage over his peers on Tour, and his reply was simple: “I had three guys playing for me, while the other guys only had one.”
Trevino went on to explain that he had three different shot patterns he’d use: his A game, B game and C game. Thus, when is A game wasn’t there, he’d drop back and use his B game or his C game. “One guy always showed up ready to play,” Trevino said. How many times have you tried to hit your stock shot over and over on the course, waiting for it to work “this time.” Be more flexible with your game like Trevino, and you’ll see your average score drop.
Think target, not swing
Good luck with the idea that you can play with 15 swing thoughts in your head; the results are rarely any good. Your best golf comes when you are on autopilot and only see and think about the target. This sounds easier than it is, of course, but try your best to only think about where you want the ball to go, especially when you’re swinging well.
If you must have swing thoughts, choose one and keep it simple
If you think that my last tip is great in theory, but does not work for you because you must think about your swing, then please choose one swing thought and keep it simple. Avoid mechanical thoughts like fire the hips to right field, hold the shoulders back and drop the hands. Instead, focus on things like tempo, tension and a smooth transition.
Don’t try to do too much
I had a good player ask me how often he should curve the ball different ways during a round. “Don’t try to do it too much,” I said. Golfers need to make the game simpler, not more complex.
Sure, there are times when you must curve the ball a lot, or use a trajectory that’s different from your stock shot, but really… how often is it necessary on the course? And how much time do you actually spend practicing different trajectories?
If you’re not striking the ball dead center of the club face most of the time, don’t try to become a great shot maker… not yet, at least. But if you want to start playing for paychecks, the nuances of shot shaping might be for you. Far fewer PGA Tour players work it both ways than most golfers think. Just ask Vijay Singh and Kenny Perry.
Work around your weaknesses
The golf gods didn’t give any golfer a full bag, as they say. Everyone has a weakness within their game that’s not quite up to par with the rest of their game. So if you’re horrible from 30 yards, then why would you leave yourself a 30-yard shot? Work on your weaknesses, but don’t let them ruin their scores in the meantime.
Remember, use your brain first, emotions second, and your ego third, and I promise that these common sense tips will improve your scores quickly.
The LPGA Tour is kicking off its 2026 season this week at Lake Nona Golf and Country Club in Orlando, and the pros are dealing with something most Florida golfers rarely face: freezing temperatures.
“It’s colder here than in the UK at the minute, which is a first,” said England’s Charley Hull during Wednesday’s media day at the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions.
Even Lydia Ko, who lives at Lake Nona, seemed surprised by the cold snap. “We’re pretty much getting to below zero in celsius here, which maybe in other parts of the country they would be thankful, but when you’re in Florida it is a little bit of a surprise,” she said.
If the world’s best players are adjusting their games for cold weather, recreational golfers should, too. Here’s how to play smart when the mercury drops.
Understand What Cold Does to Your Game
Before you change anything, you need to know what you’re fighting against. Cold air is denser than warm air, which means your ball won’t fly as far. Period.
Hull noticed this immediately during practice rounds at Lake Nona. She mentioned hitting a gap wedge into the 18th hole during a previous win but needing a 4-iron during Tuesday’s practice round. That’s a difference of four or five clubs for the same shot.
Action item: Expect to lose 5-10 yards on every club in your bag when temperatures dip below 50 degrees. Plan accordingly and don’t be stubborn about club selection.
Layer Up Without Restricting Your Swing
Hull admitted she wore three pairs of pants during practice. While that might be extreme for most of us, staying warm is critical to playing well in cold conditions.
Your muscles need warmth to function properly. When you’re cold, your body tightens up and your swing gets shorter and faster. Neither of those things help you hit good golf shots.
Action item: Wear multiple thin layers instead of one bulky jacket. Look for golf-specific cold weather gear that stretches with your swing. Keep hand warmers in your pockets between shots. And don’t forget a good hat because you lose significant body heat through your head.
Take More Club Than You Think You Need
This is where ego gets in the way of good scores. When it’s cold, the ball doesn’t compress as well off the clubface. Combined with denser air, you’re looking at serious distance loss.
The pros at Lake Nona are dealing with a course that measures 6,642 yards but plays much longer this week. If they’re adjusting, you should too.
Action item: Take at least one extra club on every approach shot. In temperatures below 40 degrees, consider taking two extra clubs. It’s better to fly the ball to the back of the green than to come up short in a bunker.
Adjust Your Expectations on the Greens
Cold weather affects putting in ways most golfers don’t consider. The ball is harder and doesn’t roll as smoothly. Your hands are cold, making it harder to feel the putter. And if there’s any moisture on the greens, they’ll be slower than normal.
Ko mentioned that she still sometimes reads the greens wrong at Lake Nona despite being a member for years. Cold weather makes that challenge even tougher.
Action item: Hit putts more firmly than usual. The ball needs extra speed to hold its line on cold greens. Take a few extra practice strokes to get a feel for the speed before you putt.
Embrace the Mental Challenge
Hull said something interesting about cold weather golf: “I like the mental toughness of it.”
That’s the right attitude. Everyone on the course is dealing with the same conditions. The player who stays patient and doesn’t get frustrated by the extra difficulty will come out ahead.
Action item: Lower your expectations by a few strokes. If you normally shoot 85, accept that 90 might be a good score in 40-degree weather. Focus on solid contact and smart decisions rather than perfect shots.
Warm Up Longer and Smarter
This might be the most important tip of all. Cold muscles are tight muscles, and tight muscles get injured easily.
World No. 1 Jeeno Thitikul revealed she’s been protecting a wrist injury that bothered her late last season. Cold weather makes those kinds of injuries more likely if you don’t prepare properly.
Action item: Spend at least 20 minutes warming up before your round. Start with stretching, then hit easy wedge shots before working up to your driver. Keep moving between shots on the course to maintain body heat and flexibility.
The pros at Lake Nona this week will adapt and compete at the highest level despite the cold. You can do the same at your local course by following these tips and keeping a positive attitude.

Brooks Koepka is back on the PGA Tour, and whether you love him or hate him, the guy knows how to win when it matters. After his LIV Golf stint, the five-time major champion returns this week at the Farmers Insurance Open.
What makes Koepka fascinating? He doesn’t fit the mold. His swing isn’t textbook. He doesn’t obsess over mechanics. Yet he’s won three PGA Championships and two U.S. Opens, regularly making it look easier than guys with prettier swings.
So, what can average golfers learn from someone who treats the game so differently? Quite a bit.
Stop Overthinking Every Shot
Koepka describes his approach as “reactionary” rather than mechanical. While most tour pros grind over swing thoughts, Brooks sees the target and hits it. No mental checklist.
This might be the most valuable lesson for weekend golfers who’ve watched too many YouTube swing videos.
How to actually do this:
On the range, hit five balls where you stare at the target for three seconds prior to addressing the ball. Don’t think about grip or stance. Just burn that target into your brain. You’ll be shocked at how pure you hit it when your brain focuses on where the ball is going instead of how you’re swinging.
Next time you play, give yourself a rule: Once you pull the club, you’ve got 15 seconds to hit. Koepka is one of the fastest players on tour because he doesn’t give his brain time to sabotage him.
If you feel tension in your hands at address, you’re trying to control too much. Koepka’s grip pressure is famously light. Loosen up until the club almost feels like it might slip, then add just enough pressure to hold on. That’s your swing thought: soft hands, see the target.
This approach works better under pressure. When you’re standing over that shot with water left and OB right, the last thing you need is a mental checklist. See it, feel it, hit it.
Play to Your Strengths (Even If They’re Not Pretty)
Koepka uses a strong grip that wouldn’t pass muster in some teaching circles. But he’s built his game around what works for him, elite driving distance and recovery skills. He doesn’t try to be someone he’s not.
Here’s how to build your game like Brooks:
Look at your last five rounds and figure out where you’re actually gaining strokes. Bombing it off the tee, but can’t hit greens? Lean into it. Play courses where distance matters more than precision. On tight holes, grip down on your 3-wood instead of trying to thread a driver through a keyhole you’ll miss seven times out of ten.
Koepka knows he can scramble, so he’s not afraid to miss greens. If you’re deadly from 50 to 75 yards, start leaving yourself those distances on the par 5’s instead of going for them in two every time.
Know when to take your medicine. Koepka in the trees at the PGA? He’s punching out to 100 yards, not trying to bend a 6-iron around three oaks. You’re in the rough with a flyer lie and water short? Hit your 8-iron to the middle and move on. That’s not playing scared, that’s playing smart.
Save Your Best for When It Counts
Here’s a wild stat: Koepka’s putting average in majors is often more than a full stroke better per round than in regular events. He elevates when pressure is highest.
How does an amateur tap into that gear? It’s not about trying harder, it’s about caring differently.
Here’s what actually works:
Decide which rounds matter to you. Club championship? Member-guest? That annual trip with college buddies? Circle those dates and treat them differently. Koepka doesn’t care much about regular tour events, but majors? That’s when he locks in.
Two weeks before your big round, change your practice. Stop beating balls mindlessly. Play nine holes in which every shot has consequences. Miss the fairway? Hit from the rough on the next hole too. Three-putt? Twenty push-ups. Koepka’s practice intensity ramps up before majors because he’s rehearsing pressure, not just swings.
Develop a between-shot routine that resets your brain. Koepka is famous for his blank expression after bad shots. Try this: After any shot, take three deep breaths while walking, then find something specific to notice, a tree, a cloud, someone’s shirt. That’s your reset button. By the time you reach your ball, the last shot is gone.
The Bottom Line
Brooks Koepka’s return reminds us there’s no single path to success in golf. His “substance over style” approach proves that results matter more than looking good.
You don’t need a perfect swing; you need a reliable one that holds up under pressure. You don’t need to hit every shot in the book; you need the shots you can count on. And you don’t need to play great every time; you need to play great when it matters.
Welcome back, Brooks. Thanks for the reminder that golf is ultimately about getting the ball in the hole, not winning style points.

Blades Brown made a big impression last week in the California desert, and not just because he’s only 18. He put up numbers that would catch any weekend golfer’s attention. Most of us won’t hit 317-yard drives or find 86% of our greens in regulation, but there’s a lot to learn from how Brown managed his game at The American Express.
Here are three practical lessons from his performance that you can use on your own course this weekend.
Step 1: Give Priority to Accuracy Over Distance Off The Tee
Brown’s driving stats are impressive. He averaged almost 318 yards off the tee, ranking 12th in the field. More importantly, he hit 76.79% of his fairways, tying for fourth place in the tournament.
Think about that ratio for a second. Brown could have swung harder, chased more distance and tried to overpower the course. Instead, he played smart golf and kept his ball in play.
Your Action Item: Next time you’re on the tee box, ask yourself a simple question before pulling the driver. Do you need maximum distance here, or do you need to be in the fairway? If there’s trouble lurking or the hole doesn’t demand every yard you can muster, take something off your swing. Grip down an inch. Make a three-quarter swing. Do whatever it takes to find the short grass. Brown’s approach illustrates that fairways lead to greens, and greens lead to birdies. He made 22 of them last week, along with an eagle.
The math is simple. When you’re hitting three out of every four fairways like Brown did, you’re giving yourself legitimate looks at the green with your approach shots. That’s when scoring happens.
Step 2: Commit To Hitting More Greens
This is where Brown really separated himself. He hit 62 of 72 greens in regulation, an 86.11% clip that tied for first in the entire field. Read that again. An 18-year-old kid tied for the lead in one of the most important ball-striking statistics in professional golf.
How did he do it? By keeping his ball in the fairway (see Step 1) and giving himself clean looks with mid-irons and wedges.
Your Action Item: Start tracking your greens in regulation. You don’t need a fancy app or a statistics degree. Just mark down whether you hit the green in the regulation number of strokes. Par 3s in one shot. Par 4s in two shots. Par 5s in three shots.
Once you know your baseline, set a goal to improve it by 10%. If you’re currently hitting five greens per round, aim for six. The beauty of this approach is that it forces you to think strategically about club selection and shot shape. Brown’s strokes gained approach number was positive (0.179), meaning he was better than the field average. You don’t need to be perfect. You just need to be on the dance floor more often.
When you hit more greens, you eliminate the need for heroic short game shots. Brown only had to scramble 10 times all week, and he got up and down 70% of the time. That’s solid, but the real story is that he rarely put himself in scrambling situations to begin with.
Step 3: Minimize Mistakes And Stay Patient
Here’s the stat that jumps off the page: Brown made only three bogeys all week. Three. In four rounds of professional golf against the best players in the world.
He also made just one double bogey. That kind of clean card doesn’t happen by accident. It happens when you play within yourself, avoid the big miss and trust that pars are never bad scores.
Your Action Item: Before your next round, decide that you’re going to play boring golf. No hero shots over water. No driver on tight holes just because you can. No aggressive pins when there’s a safe side of the green.
Brown’s performance shows us that consistency beats flash every single time. He didn’t lead the field in any single strokes gained category, but he was solid across the board. That’s how you post numbers and cash checks.
Give these three steps a try. Your scorecard will thank you.

I’m kind of wild off the tee with any wood (kind of = very). So I use a “3 iron” approach on many par 5s. 6i to get it out around 185, then 7i another 170, and a 9i for the final 150. My playing partners razz me but I don’t care – I’m so tired of hitting and hunting, so this works for me (usually ;).

This is why a golfer who hasn’t played a course will often play better because they are just trying to keep the ball in play rather than making hero shots. Hero shots just happen. Play the shots you know you can hit.

Par 5’s made easy… Say you are in the fairway 250 yards from the green. Instead of hitting 3 wood and trying to go for it. Hitting it in the trees, water or ob. How easy is it to play a 150 yard shot… a 7 iron for example. Your in the fairway 100 yards from the green with a wedge. You will make many more pars and birdies and a whole lot less others…

Because of that he comes up short 9 out of 10 times…..and he is always surprised. I’ve seen him hit his 5 iron 190 yards, twice. But he always uses it for 190 yard shot and can’t believe it when it goes 165.

After reading these tips it reminded me of what my dad told me one day. We were playing a par 71 golf course and he said I could bogey every hole and still shoot 89. At the time i had never shot in the 80’s before. That thought took all the pressure off me that day and i shot 89. Thanks Dad…

My key recently has been to play aggressive to conservative lines. Like most people, I tend to get a bit guidey on tight courses with the driver. Bad move unless you like the trees. If you’re tense, take out a FW, H, or long iron. If you’re swinging driver… HIT IT! Most of us can split the fairways on wide open courses because we’re free. I’m trying to keep that thought no matter where I play… so far, so good.

Great points, Tom. So, often I get caught up on how to best execute my swing and fail to think about course strategy. Last time, I had started my round out with three great holes and snap hooked a driver
on a narrow hole, which put me into a tail spin for the rest of the round. I believe going to a 5 wood and playing for bogey would have been the right call.

I think the biggest tip for any golfer who isn’t a pro is just be happy to be on the green putting for birdie no matter the distance. And be happy with a par that is makeable. The biggest trap golfers fall into is getting mad with proximity to the hole. The average on tour is like 30ft or close to it. So, for the recreational golfer, being on the green putting for birdie is a plus. My 2 cents, I am a 5 handicap and my goal is to just have a birdie putt on every hole and have a shot for the green. When I took that approach my birdies went up, and my score went down. From a 8 to a 5. And I shoot almost par from time to time.

Ronald – I play frequently with a man who is a 6 hdcp. He occasionally shoots even par on a par 72 course with a 65.6 rating and 116 slope. He’s still a 6. He gets up and down very well and he hits GIR about 65% of the time or better. You can shoot even par from time to time depending on the course slope/rating and still have a 5-7 hdcp.
It could be derived from your statement that you don’t understand the USGA handicap system. Be careful calling someone a fool or a liar when you don’t have all of the information and don’t understand the system of which you reference.

To add to my statement above, you took Gordy’s words and wrested them – he said “my goal is to just have a birdie putt on every hole” – note.. on every hole, that would be 100% GIR on 18.
You do seem like a keyboard warrior – you may wish to spend some time warrioring your way over to the USGA website and read up on how the HDCP system works (math and all that.. )
Gordy’s tips for the recreational golfer are very helpful and kind, your’s just came across as angry and grumpy.

It actually depends on the difficulty of the course… Shooting par from time to time on a US open course vs a local muni obviously requires diffent skill levels… That being said I feel a little bit of animosity coming from you… Seems as though you aim at every flagstick but look down on someone who probably shoots lower scores because they only try to hit girs and don’t try to hit it to a foot every time… Newsflash that’s how most good players approach their “approach” shots

Great tips Tom,
With number 8 I would add, make sure you always use more than enough club for not just getting over hazards but reaching greens in general.
I can’t tell you how many times I see my playing partners continually coming up short close to 80% of the time with approach shots and especially on par 3’s.
