Read a book on golf psychology. Then you'll realize this round has 0 meaning on anything in your golf game, just trust your swing and know you're better.

Also, I doubt you had the WORST round ever...

Seconds 35-37

Driver: 10.5* callaway Razr Hawk Tour - 350 yards(usually into the wind, it can be windy here. at least 400 with a little wind behind me)

Hybrids: 2 and 3 callaway Hybrid razr tour (312 and 287 respectively)

Irons: 3i-10i callaway forged standard length(278, 263, 250, 235, 221, 213, 201, 190)

Wedges: callaway jaws cc 52* 12 approach, 56* 16 sand, 60* 13 lob (0-185)

Odyssey Black tour #9 putter(5 ft, i'm always at least within 5 feet on my approach shot)

I wonder who on this forum is a PGA tour pro, disguised as a normal player..

Maybe add a little Matt Every to your game.

You think you had a bad round! I lost NINE fecking golf balls on the weekend...NINE!!! Do you have ANY idea how much those golf balls cost me? No...neither do I so when you find out let me know :)

Rest in the knowledge, like I do, that there is always someone somewhere having a worse round of golf than you are! :)

To the OP, it's just one round. I once shot a 123. You put it behind you, remember what good happened while out there and move forward. All you can do really.

Yesterday, I had the worst session at the driving range ever.....pitching practice was great however. Gotta take the good with the bad I guess or quit.

In my  bag:

Driver, Callaway Diablo Edge Tour 9.5 stiff

3, 5 woods: Callaway Diablo Edge Tour 15,18 degrees Stiff

2 hybrid: Callaway Diable Edge Tour 18 degrees R (out when the 5 wood is in)

3,6 hybrids: Callaway Diablo Edge 21 S and 30 degrees R

4,5 hybrids: Callaway Razr X HL 24 and 27 degrees Stiff

7-AW irons: Callaway Razr HL graphite R shafts 

SW 54 Callaway X Series Jaws CC Slate Fujikura Graphite Stiff

Putter: Odessey White Ice 1 Blade Putter. 

Ball...looking for any ball that hates water, sand, long grass, and getting lost in the woods. 

I can't find any, so forced to use ones that seem to love all the above.

Well my old pro used to say:

If you make birdie your doing great

if par . your in good shape

if bogey well you have to concentrate better

id double or worse you need to see me.

haha

I probably had the worst round off golf to this weekend at competition, could not get the ball in play with driver or 3 wd, even not with my hybrid 2 iron.

morning round i still tried to hit it well with driver, but i would give my self a compliment if i say the balls where hooking, so far left......

Afternoon round i was at the range for a few balls still the same hooking massively. irons where ok in the morning so i put the driver and 3 wood in the car.

I was really nailing my 3 iron every single teeshot. hit them flush about 230 yards. Pissing my opponent off when my 3 iron ended up further than his 3wd.

came down to an 7-6 win for me. Only bad thing was i struggled to get my long irons on the green. chipping and pitching was good so i was fine. Last hole i was

at a 410 yrd par 4 and hit my 3 I off the tee, leaving me a 190 yrd in, hit a bad 5 iron into greenside front bunker. got my 58 wedge and holed out. taking the win with

me.

So what you should do is find a way to get the ball in play not in woods or water.

Dirver: Mizuno JPX 825 9,5 Fujikura Orochi Red Eye Stiff 65 g.
3 wood: Mizuno JPX 825 14 Fujikura Orochi Red Eye Stiff 75 g.
Hybrid: Mizuno JPX 825 18 Fujikura Orochi Red Eye Stiff 85 g. 
Irons: Mizuno MP 59 3 / PW KBS Tour stiff shaft ( Golf Pride Niion )
Wedges: Taylormade ATV Wedges 52 and 58 ( Golf Pride Niion )
putter: Taylormade ghost series 770 35 inch ( Super Stroke slim 3.0 )
Balls: Taylormade TP 5

Welcome to the game of golf.  Until you reach the point where you're a very consistent player, you'll often find yourself faced with this situation.  I can go out one day and play a decent game (for me) - go out the next day and play like I've never touched a golf club before.  One day your driver is on fire but you can't putt a lick, next day you're sinking every putt on the green but you can't hit a decent shot off the tees to save your life.  Play golf for as long as you live and you'll never master it - that's part of the intrigue of the game.

    • My two cents? Don't. As a beginner that's interested in learning about the golf swing, you'll find yourself consuming a lot of information, most of which isn't even relevant to your own swing. You need to learn you can't think your way to a good golf swing. Focus on the one thing that you're working on and doing that on every swing, come what may. And remember, mishits happen.
    • Day 6 (7 May 24) - More work in the backyard focused on tempo in addition to setup.  Worked with 6 and 7 irons hitting hard foam balls - used the old MacGregor irons to mix it up a little.   
    • No! lol. But they have to be in the right sequence to play mid-handicap golf or little better. Mostly. And even in that there is range/margin for error in the motions and positions that most normal humans can handle. It helps if you have a decent idea of how a golf club moves around the body like you would any other equipment sports (baseball and hockey might be the closest) After all, fairways are 40 yards wide. Don't overthink it. Be diligent in getting basics right. I will concede that it is harder than it sounds but it certainly is not exact angle/exact position/exact degree of bend/exact speed/exact facial expression, etc, every.... single.... time or the result is horrible death. 
    • Looking to play in the Severna Park Golf league and it got rained out the first three weeks. I know the course is being renovated so it is not in great shape but the location is easy for me and I would love to meet some other golfers in my area. Anyone here in Maryland Annapolis area? 
    • I like to look at the positives.  Overall you are fairly consistent down the center with most shots 20 yards or less off center.  On most fairways that should be in play.  Sure, you had some very short duds, but also if you look there is a good cluster in the 110-125 yard range.  Sure, we would all like to be longer, but knowing your typical shot is more important than trying to hit the 7-Iron 175 Yards.  Just take more club for longer shots and do not worry about it.  Your distances may increase as you improve over time so do not get caught up on that now.
