76 @ 6300 yards is pretty excellent. Shoot a few more like that and you can break into the singles! Nice Job! Klutten3.

Peela, I've been thinking about that. Playing just for the score is wearing off for sure. I need something on the line to keep me going through 18.

I've always enjoyed playing at least $1 skins or something. I bought that Vegas Golf game with the poker chips earlier this year, and it's enjoyable to play. I also joined a traveling league. A little friendly competition always makes things a little more fun to me. How has everyone's season started out so far? Have only broken 80 once so far this season, but feel pretty good about it happening on a semi-regular basis after last season. The goal this year is to break 75 (and maybe hit Par).

Played my first round yesterday. I've played a few practice rounds but wasn't counting them towards my handicap. Shoot a 77. 40 on the front, 37 on the back. Great day, 72 degrees and sunny.

If breaking 80 is your only goal then I would stick to one course but if you can shoot 82 at every course you will be a better golfer than shooting a 79 at a course you know in and out. I tend to lose focus or something too. the other day (at the toughest course I play) I should 3 over on the tougher front and then 10 over on the back. It all started with a double on the easiest hole on the course. mental error. PLAY SMART!!!!

True. I got good by joining a club and playing one course many times. I'm sure there is an actual statistic, but I once heard that when visiting a fresh course, you should allow a 4-5 stroke variance from your home course.

Holy crap, @Finley . Maybe sit out the next few months and you'll be down to low 70s easily! Well done. Heck of a back 9.

      I’m not sure I agree. It’s just what the majority find more entertaining. Most people prefer women’s gymnastics over men in the Olympics. How much hype is there with the men’s compared to the women’s? I bet you can rattle off several big names in women’s gymnastics and only a handful of men. Women’s tennis …same thing. And sure enough, their purses are the same. However, WNBA, awful…LPGA, not near as much interest than PGA. Don’t think it’s really that complicated IMO.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      Hence your Avatar!😜 I drink a lot of water during the day if I’m playing or exercising. I get cramps otherwise.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By snapfade ·

      If you walk up to a food/drink kiosk at Magic Kingdom and ask the person for a cup of "magic water" they will give you a small cup of Sprite for free. About 3 fingers worth. They don't sell alcohol at MK anymore so I go over to one of the courses while she hangs out there.

      This isn't some kind of natural fact. It's a lot more complicated than this implies.
