After getting over a bout of sciatica in April (something I've never had before) my game has steadily improved. I was a 6.2 GHIN and have dropped to 5.5 and am trending down.
I started reworking my swing last August and I've gotten to the point where I can trust it, it's repeatable AND I know what I'm doing wrong when a bad swing comes along. This has helped with the consistency of my rounds but another main factor has been better course management and committing to every shot as much as possible.
The part of my game that needs to improve the most is still my chipping and pitching. I am lights out on the practice green but still am not carrying that confidence and decisiveness over to the course. But it is getting better. My last round was not spectacular - 80 from the back tees (7,289 - 73.5/131) but was the first round this year without a double bogey or 3 putt. Also no birdies, but they're don't usually stay away for long.
