Is my handycap good?

Question

i am 10 with a 30 handycap

Answer 1

Well, young man, that is difficult to say.....without knowing about how many times you've played....what par is on the course...and a few other things it takes to establish not just a...handicap...but a true one.  And, if you are really and truly interested in pursuing golf, then you might want to have your mom or dad take you to the golf course and talk with one of the golf professionals at the course.  Many of the club golf professionals, especially at a municipal golf course generally operated by the city, or county, work with junior golfers and many have a junior golf program that goes into great detail about the entire golf game...not just hitting the ball...or about a handicap...but understanding what the game is about and how much fun it can be for..all your life.  I have had a lot of fun myself working with some junior programs over the years, and been rewarded many times when a parent tells me that their son or daughter beat them on the golf course...or some years later when I see a name of one of the juniors that I had watched, or played a round with.  Remember though...it does take a lot  of patience...and practice...and dedication if you really want to play the game as it was meant to be.  So...enjoy it!!

Answer 2

At your age don't worry about handicap just worry about practicing

Answer 3

It's not bad but a 10 year old at my club plays off 14. (no offense)

Answer 4

Keep practicing, it doesn't matter what you are playing off at the moment because you are very young.

Your aim is most likely to become as low of a handicap as you can.

If your playing off 10 when you 13 thats really good, but not everybody is as a quick learner and it might take you 10years.

It depends how much you practice etc

Answer 5

that doesnt sound that bad for a ten year-old... it depends on how long you've been playing
