I shot a 44 for 9 holes this evening! It could have been even better, but I put up a snowman on a par 5, thanks to a tee shot into a pond. Still I could not have been happier. I struck my irons better than ever before, I think I might be finally getting over the fats. I only hit 3 greens, but the ones I missed were not by much. I even got up and down for par twice. Normally I can never chip it close enough to do that.
Very excited to see what the rest of the spring and summer will bring. I feel I have the desire to play better, and I think that can be a very important part. Also, while I may be able to play only a couple of rounds a month, I can hit balls in an open field by my house. Im hoping with some more practice, maybe I can shoot a full 18 hole round in the 80's.
Don't know if anyone wanted to hear my rant, but I had to tell someone. My wife could care less.

Congrats! Sounds like people are getting off to a good start this season. I also had my personal best for 9-holes this past Wednesday at my home course. Keep up the good play guys.

Nice job man, keep on it and you will easily shoot in the 80's

Congrats!! For me when I shoot a good round like that, it gives me more incentive to go back the next day or soon after and try to do it again.

    • Agree. The next omission needs to be that ridiculous team concept. Nobody cares about a team when they really don’t represent anything except being a group of diminished morality and/or washed up pro golfers. Or wait, we’ve also got total nobodies who’ve accomplished nothing who now get a participation trophy! Doesn’t that sound invigorating!
    • LIV moving to 72 holes is a subtle admission that 54 holes was nothing but a joke all along. 
    • I was going to start a thread, but this seems like the place.  Yesterday I played my matchplay match at my local club.  My opponent is a notorious sandbagger by reputation.  The pro once pulled his tournament rounds from the past several years and said that it is impossible his tournament rounds are legit based on his handicap. here is what happened last night.  I am getting 4 shots from him.  His current handicap index is 15.3 i shot 45 on the front.   Was down 4 after nine, he had three birdies and shot even par. I was closed out on thirteen, we halved with a bogey.  That bogey put him one over par for his round.   He then took a triple on 14 and then left. As if that wasn’t bad enough, he lied about his score.   I wrote down on my scorecard what the score was.  He put higher values that didn’t affect the outcome of the match to pad his score and apparently make it not look as obvious.   He shot 36 on the front, but claimed 40.  The higher values for his score were in the online scoring app our club uses.  He did it this way: I won #7. He had a 2 foot putt for par that if he made would still lose the hole.   He picked up and said it didn’t matter since I won.  He took a 5 instead of a 4 after picking up a gimme. on #8 his approach shot on this par 4 was 8 inches.  I verbally conceded the putt but I had hit into a hazard.  I finished the hole with a 6.  Instead of birdie he put in for par. on #9, another par 4, his approach was to 18 inches.  I missed my par putt and then knowing how close I verbally conceded the putt.  I missed my bogey putt, he never conceded mine.  Instead of birdie he put down a bogey. He padded his score by 4 shots on the front.  And then did again on 10.  I rinsed one and made 6 on a par 4.  I putted out and he was fishing balls out of the lake so I drove off to the next tee.  He had 15 feet laying two but claimed a 5.     love to know the odds of a 15 handicap being even thru 12 holes on a round of golf.
