    As an aside, went to the Srixon fitting day on Friday and got fitted for ZX7's with Nippon Modus3 120g X-flexes (7-iron SS of 92mp/h), while I also hit three of the most pure shots of my life with the Srixon Utility Iron. Looks like a few dollars will be leaving my bank account soon....

    My 3 handicap cards put me at 13.2, but I reckon it'll settle somewhere around the 15-16 mark once I get 10 or so cards in. I have a bet to get to 9.9 by years end, which is probably fairly unlikely, but it's the motivation I need to get out there and play.

    I'm pretty sure bd was asking about your left handed handicap.

    Given how much harder it seems to be to get to scratch than 5, the first one.

    I would assume the days of lefty playing left handed to scratch are long way over.

    So I agree, option 2.

    Default The Birth of RightyHoges and the journey to single digits

    5 and 5

    If you can get to scratch you have a pretty good idea of what you’re doing and can probably find a way to chop it around at a bogey a hole on the other side.

    I'll say option 2 because I've already accomplished option 1.

    My righty cap is unofficial and club comp sanctioned only, can't be used in major and honour board events. Golf Australia don't allow official caps on both sides.

    Golf is mostly mental they say, jokes aside he had already learned that. I would predict Righty would easily make high single figures without much practice. To get low is going to take a lot of work
