69, but hey, that's still 60's!!

Shot a 36 on the front and was feeling pretty great, made the turn into my favorite nine of the 27 hole course.

Shot a 33! Felt so nice. On the last green I was putting for eagle (7 ft out) and completely even forgot that this shot would be for shooting for under 70. I just took everything one shot at a time and didn't really focus on keeping my total score.

Went Par, Par, Bogey, Par, Par, Birdie, Par, Par, Par
Went Par, Bird, Par, Bird, Par, Par, Par, Boge, Eagle on the back

Club Championship coming up in October. I hope I can rock it until then and blow some people away.

Congrats.

My best round was even par (72), and I couldn't sleep at all that night. Came close to that a few time since, but a few fat chips ruined them.

Are you playing any Am tournaments in the upcoming months? You were the guy who wanted to qualify for a NationWide tour event right? Rooting for you so good luck.

If I play well in the my Club Championship I will. I've been looking at So-Cal tourneys online to try and get in for. I know tournament golf and playing my home course are 2 different monsters. But I'd like to try and get as much tournament golf under my belt as possible!

I started putting a little more weight on my front foot and keeping my backswing on a more 1-plane approach and it did WONDERS for my iron game. Added about 5-10 yards per club and gave me more workability.

Gonna take a look at MB clubs at the next demo day here in the central valley and maybe switch to them.

Kinda what I'm hoping for. Get some good practice in through fall and winter. Then when the season starts up next spring I'll be good enough to start qualifying for a lot of ammy stuff

You said you're looking for SoCal events? Visalia isn't terribly close, but the Golden State Tour has a really competitve Am division.

Yea, I have family and friends in Newport, Costa Mesa, Corona Del Mar, San Diego, Ontario, West Covina, Carlsbad, and San Diego. So I always have a close place to stay to SO-CAL events. I'll check out the golden state am division. I didn't even know it existed to be honest.

What's the competition like in the ammy field? I assume scratch or better as it is for the pro division?

There's some kids tearing it up this summer. My buddies Sam Yi, Allan Jun, and Andrew Ok. Seejun Yoon too. They are consistently under par. Up until their crazy tear this summer, anywhere from a little under par would win and a few over par would make some money back.

      I would recommend spending some time at the range and film your swing. You can post it in the Member Swings thread. At the range, you can figure out how to control the driver a bit more. We can offer some pointers once you post in the Member Swings section.

      With the H4 or the watch, you tag the club before hitting by putting the tag next to the device. The tag is on the club butt end. After a round, you don’t really think about it too much. You just do it. I don’t know how far you are from @phillyk, but he may know an instructor in your area.

      So the biggest issue right now is marrying the hands down with an athletic turn. I can get stuck not turning. Things get interesting from there.

      Playing With Irons

      By John of Art ·

      Hi everybody!  I am new to the golf game. I have taken some lessons and got fitted for clubs a couple of months ago. I usually score between 110-120 for 18 holes.  I bought a Stealth driver last year and have been hitting consistently with it 210-230 yds on the simulator. But when I take it out on the course, every drive is a severe slice!  I played 18 holes yesterday at the club where I belong. I removed the driver from my bag and used the 5 iron to drive with. I hit straight 16 out of 18 drives, 180 - 200 yds. I used the 5i - putter for the rest of my game.  I ended the day with a 92. Question: Does it make sense for me to continue playing with irons only until I get further along in my game before I reintroduce the Driver and woods again? Or should I continue to struggle with the Driver and woods and shoot in the 100’s again? To me it’s a no brainer, but for those more advanced I am interested to get feedback.
