Answer 4

those are good scores if you only been playing 9 months .ibeen playing 20 yrs and still shoot mid 40s which is better than the mid sixties i shot when i started out

Answer 5

47-55 isn't too shaby for 9 holes for a beginner...keep [racticing your short game esp the shots from 100 yards in ie chipping, pitching, putting..those are the scoring shots.  Also may want to try to see about getting a lesson or two from PGA pro, I know that has helped me from shooting 55-60 to 42-45 on 9 holes.  Good luck to ya.

Answer 6

47-55 is respectable for a beginner golfer.  Chances are you should be able to shave 5 strokes off your game if you practice putting and another 5 strokes off if you practice chipping.  After next round count every putt per hole; if you get to 18 or less per 9 holes you should be scoring around 44-49 consistantly

Answer 7

You will never think that you are in great shape if you become an avid golfer.  You'll always find something that you can work on and improve.  How nice it is to have such a long road ahead of you.  Now get back to work.

Answer 8

Depends on which team you are trying out for. If it is a bigger school, then you probably need to improve some.  If it is a smalller school, you are in a good range.  The main thing is you have to play well and impress the coach when it counts.  Thats one of the keys to becoming a pro that nobody really realizes, you have to win when it counts, or get really lucky at a perfect time.  Do well when you are trying out, and it wont matter what your average is...

Answer 9

How many holes are you playing?  If 9 holes need to do some more work.  If for 18 holes heck yes you're in good shape.

Answer 10

You are in good shape.

Answer 11

I assume you mean for nine holes.

As a high school golf coach, I'd tell you that you need to get your nine hole scores below 40 to make the varsity. My JV squad typically shot 40 - 45 for nine.

Answer 12

are u a r****d if u shot that you would be the top golfer to ever play

Answer 13

sounds like your doing great just keep practicing and your game will improve.
