Golf Monthly's Kit Alexander and Top 50 coach Adam Harnett present six data-backed strategies to help golfers consistently break 90. Using Shot Scope analytics, the video demonstrates how reducing 'troublesome' tee shots, improving driver release, and mastering speed control on the greens can lower scores. Viewers will learn practical drills for driving distance and short-range putting to bridge the gap between shooting in the 90s and the 80s.
Tee up on the side of your miss (e.g., right side for a slice) to aim diagonally and create more room for the ball to stay in play.
Avoid 'steering' the driver; let the clubhead win the race to the ball to maximize speed and efficiency.
Prioritize hitting the middle of the green over flag-hunting to increase your Greens in Regulation (GIR) percentage.
For pitches under 50 yards, use a narrow stance to allow the body to rotate more freely and avoid 'all-arms' swings.
Manage 3-putts by calibrating your putting stroke length to your stance width for predictable distance control.
