Good post. When trying to break 90, it's not so much about how many birdies you get on your scorecard - it's more about how many doubles (or worse) you keep OFF the scorecard! Trying those hero shots or low percentage recovery shots for birdie or par is going to hurt you a lot more than playing it safe and just settling for the bogey.
Absolutely, spot on. You can play BOGEY golf and have 1 par and break 90. Crazy how simple it really is to break 90 when you break it down, instead of trying to go low and having MUCH more risk vs reward.
