  You need to get your AVG below 67

  It also looks like you are in a dead country club. if you join an active country club you might find some more good advice for improving your game and learning other things about this game.

  You can also find a lot of good information in these forums if you read through them for tips. There is a search box on the right of this page to help you find the topics you would like to learn more about.

  You might want to buy two short wedges (50 / 75 or 60 / 80 yds) to improve your scores. Those at L39 are favourable.

  OTOH, it may be helpful to play 9 hole rounds. They count the same than 18 holes by doubling the score, and it's easier to avoid slip-ups.

  You need better equipment. It is no secret that better clubs and balls gives you a much better chance at shooting better scores. As was already mentioned dump the hybrid and get 3 good wedges with a good distance spread. Some people like 50 75 100 I like 60 80 100 just because that is what I have gotten used to. I get not wanting to spend a lot on the game. There are super cheap balls only cost 10 credits per sleeve . They are not free like the starter ball but they are super cheap and play significantly better for not much cost.

  Tiers are over rated. To me average is more important .

    Take the advice . Especially finding a CC with an active owner . Message him . Let him or her know your goals . See how he or she responds .Pick a CC with your interests at heart .
