BREAKING 90
Time to Test Your Patience with a New Strategy
We all want to make birdies, but you must start learning how to consistently make pars first. Chances are your decision-making gets aggressive when you play par 3s and 5s, looking to capitalize on shorter approach shot distances that could allow for more birdies — or, in some cases, make up lost ground from the big number you just carded the previous hole.


A better strategy that creates discipline with your decision-making is to consistently make pars playing par 3s and 5s. Here are at least eight chances to lower your score on the holes that do provide some relief to your skills. You don’t have to sacrifice your playing style doing so. Making big numbers on these holes is the fastest way to higher scores. Big numbers playing 3s and 5s will completely debilitate your ego and eliminate any chance of making up ground.
Do the math. Making pars at these holes provides you ten opportunities to make bogey and still have eight shots to play with, at most courses, to still break 90.
