Im 16 and i shoot about a 3or 4 handicap in golf is that good enough for a scholarship ?

Question

doesnt have to be a big school

Answer 1

If you can stay consistent with that, you should be good for a smaller school, maybe even some big schools that have poor golf programs.

Answer 2

Almost but probably not quite good enough.  Use your senior year to get down to scratch and you should get some scholarship offers.  Even Division III players shoot right around par to get a scholarship.

Answer 3

Yes.... Keep working on your game(short & putting mostly) & by the time you reach your senior year you should be scratch.... Play well in the state HS tourneys, junior events & the State Am....... Get your grades up to B+/A- & you can choose any school you wish my young friend.  I guarantee it!

Answer 4

I have a question for you...What is your real handicap because I can guess by the way that you asked the question that you aren't a 3 and probably not a 4. I can answer your question however. If you do play to a 3 or a 4 then you can easily get a scholarship to a Division 2 school. I must warn you, however, that no matter what you do, you will not get a full scholarship. Golf teams, even at big schools, don't have enough to go around. You will usually end up with a 1/2 or 1/4 scholarship. I do want to stress that if you aspire to be a top teir golfer, you should work on your short game. (I know you probably hear this all the time, but it can't be stressed enough.)

Answer 5

hm, you still have a couple years, that is good, but if you can get it to 0 by your senior year (im guessing your a junior?) then you could possibly get a good scholarship.
