How To Bring Down Golf Score

Long story short I picked up Golf primarily for Finance. Ended up getting addicted to the sport and currently averaging +28 playing 18. Some of the people I come across in the office and at other firms are really good and averaging anywhere in the range of scratch to +9. For any Golfers on the forum any advice on bringing down the score?

1) I’ve gone to a coach (1hr for about 100 bucks)

2) I go to the driving range

3) I watch videos on form and technique

Anything else I can do?

Learn how to play your shot style, and once you know exactly where your shots are going to go you can adjust and your score will go down, that and practice putting everywhere you can

 

Step 1) hit the ball into the hole

Step 2) iterate on step 1 until you can do it in fewer hits than you did the last time
