  Ten more rounds and your average will stop going up. Honest.

  You shot a 66 which is higher than your current avg of 65 so ofcourse your avg is going to go up. It will continue to go up and down until you've played enough rounds as tourmaster that you reach a saturation point.

  Dont  mean to sound thick but cant get my head around around what I need to do !!!

  My average came down from 70.5 to around the 65.5 mark and even getting 4 and 5 even 6 under it has gone back up. getting confused to say the least. what constitutes enough rounds

  russellie,

  You're comparing apples to oranges. If your average is 65 and you shoot 6 under on a par 72 course, you shot a 66 which is higher than your average. The fact that you were 6 under is irrelevant. 

  You have to shoot 65 or lower to lower your average.

  True until he completes the minimum neccessary number of rounds - there are only 9 missing.

  Then there will be at least 4x 70 and 4x 68 to eliminate, while also some 69s, 68s or 67s will push the ave. down. (there are 12x 64/32 and 14x 66/33 in the score history)

  russ, eventually only the scores better than 64 (my guess) will count on your ambitious way to Legend.

  O.K I get it so it's not advisable to post a score less than 6 under ??

  6 under on 9 holes will take some doing.
