You’re not playing bad. You’re misunderstanding the number. If you’re a mid-handicapper who shoots 79 one week and 93 the next, here’s the truth: your Handicap Index was never your average score.
In this video, I break down how the Handicap Index actually works — why it uses your 8 lowest Score Differentials from your last 20, why gross score is not the same as differential, why your handicap is designed to travel, and why most golfers only play to their handicap 20-25% of the time. No vibes and no excuses. Just potential, not prediction.
