Today was an odd round. And before I get into this, I am not complaining at all. I start out by holing in from 105 on hole one for eagle. Then give it right back with a double on 2. Then par the last 7 on the front nine, without hitting one green in regulation.
Back nine starts out birdie birdie birdie. Then double on a par 3. Then another double on a short par 4. Then all pars again and I missed all but one green in regulation. All in all, a 73. The score thrilled me, but the round was terrible. Anybody else have rounds like this recently and what did you do to rebound for tomorrows round?

I shot an 80 (a solid score for me) yesterday after only hitting 3 fairways. Putting and chipping really saved my behind. It's another example of when not all facets (driving, irons, chipping, and putting) of my game being stellar, but one or two makes up for another.

I shot a 94 (about average for me) Friday at one of the toughest courses in town. What made it weird was my game was completely backwards. I was crushing all my drives/fairway woods right down the middle. I hit 70%+ of my drives on the fairway but my short irons really let me down. It was one of those rounds that if I could have played my short irons like I usually do I could have went in the low 80s for my best round yet. Never can pull everything together at once.

I hope that you just haven't updated your index or you are the most inconsistant golfer (besides me

).

yea i shot a 79 yesterday as well.

I was really off and just felt out of balance. Missing fairways and felt like i missed almost every green. Fortunately my short game held up. Got up and down on 10 or 11 holes and made some putts outside of 15 feet.

So all in all...seems like even when the shit hits the fan...you can clean everything up with your short game

    • Back in my Army days a "gooch" was a particular part of the anatomy. Example, say Okeechobee is the b-hole of Florida, then Belle Glade would be the gooch. Seems he wears his name well.
    • I can't say that I remember a lot of individual putts, but I do have one specific memory.  The first time I played the Old Course, I had hit a pretty good drive on the 6th hole.  I had about 60 yards left, and due to the swale in front of the green, there was no chance of flying a wedge on or near the green and having it stop on the green.  My caddie recommended either a running 7-iron chip or a putt, and I took the putter and a pretty hard swing.  The ball rolled over humps and through hollows, disappeared into the swale in front of the green, and re-appeared heading right at the hole.  I ended up maybe 12 feet away.  The caddie turned and held out his hand to shake mine, and said "Now THAT was a golf shot!"
    • For the first time since 2021, I made a 3 on the 12th at Stoneleigh.    395 yards, something like 80 feet uphill, I hit a solid drive and a 7-wood to inside a foot.  Even I couldn't miss that one.  I feel like I haven't played a lot of golf this year, but I'm making decent progress.
