How to Break 90 by Doing Everything "Wrong" - Shot by Shot
Golf Sidekick demonstrates a comprehensive strategy to break 90 by prioritizing course management over aggressive play. He shows how using unconventional equipment like a ladies driver and making conservative club choices can eliminate double bogeys and lead to better scoring. The video emphasizes distance control, risk mitigation, and emotional stability throughout a full 18-hole round.
Use a high-lofted ladies or senior driver to maximize 'in-play' shots if your standard driver is inconsistent.
Apply the 'Par + 1' rule: treating a par 4 as a par 5 allows for a safer three-shot approach to the green.
Prioritize distance control over total distance; knowing exactly how far your clubs carry is essential for avoiding hazards.
Use a 'toe-down' chipping technique with a lower lofted club (like a 9-iron) for more predictable roll-outs.
Identify 'no-go zones' (water, deep bunkers) on every hole and choose clubs that physically cannot reach those hazards.
