fukin golf, I play 3 times a week, hit balls every day, hit the ball great at the range and on the course.  Played a match today and shoot an 84, 3 putts, lost drives.  All I have right now is my golf game to make me happy and that can't even happen...

what the hell =/  nothin a glass of vodka and a cohiba can't fix but I feel like a piece of shit

I had bone fragments taken out of my left wrist yesterday and am most likely done until 2012 - I would give my left nut to get back out there.  Just appreciate the fact that you're healthy and can play.

Played Saturday like I'd never held a club in my hand.  Decided to just enjoy on sunday and had one of my best rounds of the year.  A few missed putts from an all time low - so don't let it weigh on you, head back out and play for the joy of the game.

I wish an 84 was a bad day for me...it's all about perspective.  I'm sure given your handicap you'll be back in the 70's next time.

You're just hooked lol I have been playing for just a little over a year and have walked ouf the course telling myself i'm quiting the game then the next week I feel like i'm hitting the ball beautifully and the buzz all comes rushing back.

It's the ups and downs that make you the player you are. I wish I shot 84s when I was playing 3 of the tee and 3 putting lol

Id agree with the others.  Relax.  You play golf for fun, stop taking it so seriously and acting like having a bad round of golf is the end of the world.

Right there with ya man. I hate my game right now and am putting down the clubs and grabbing my bow. Haven't been able to hit a shot on the clubface for a good month now. Haven't had a round in the 80s all year, until my last 3 rounds. Don't know what to do, and at this point, don't care. F golf, I'm going hunting!

Golf is deceptively simple and endlessly complicated

I can relate...

Shot 92 yesterday (7 penalty strokes off the tee due to inability to hit off the tee properly on 7 holes!  Dribbled a few tee shots, hit others into a hazard, etc.)  Ugh!

One of the worst driving days I can remember in the last 6 months.

This happens to everyone. If it didn't, we'd be on TV cashing checks every Sunday! Lately, my drives are flawless and I'm putting them right where I want them with complete confidence and accuracy. My approach shots (irons) are terrible though and putting is 50/50. Everyone's game flip-flops like this though at some point. It's just golf... and it's a 4 letter word for a reason!

That's what I was thinking. I had one of those days today as well. Not a big deal in the big picture of things. I'll give it another go next time and hope that it goes better.

    • Day 135: 5/10/24 Putting and chipping practice. Good session putting through 50 mm gates.
    • Why should SuperSpeed get 3x of Stack's profits? I get the part about SuperSpeed wanting damages sustained as a result of Stack, but I don't get why SuperSpeed feels that they're entitled to both Stack's profits and damages.   Does anyone know/think SuperSpeed actually has a case here?
    • https://static1.squarespace.com/static/603d222df4a6a57df7ef3e29/t/663cdba5d89e3a1848dab8d1/1715264422455/US_DIS_ILND_1_24cv3749_d34676497e293_COMPLAINT_filed_by_SuperSpeed_Golf_LLC_Jury_Demand.pdf The full complaint is there, but  basically, SuperSpeed (SS*) is claiming the Stack System (SS*) Stack System’s [sic] produces inflated metrics later used to, [sic] mislead and deceive consumers. Stack System’s marketing materials inflate apparent swing speed and distance gains through selective presentment of data without qualification that purported gains are not the result, in whole or part, of its training protocol and products. * Yes, I'm joking about abbreviating both "SS." SuperSpeed wants: A judgment that the Stack System has disseminated false and/or misleading information in violation of federal and Illinois law. The deletion of all false advertising distributed and recall of all packaging containing false advertising and a requirement that Stack System issue notices (written or otherwise) to that effect to all current distributors and retailers of its products and all distributors with whom Stack System has done business in the past eighteen months. Written confirmation within 30 days of an injunction detailing the manner and form in which Stack System has complied. An order that Stack System disseminate corrective advertising informing consumers, the trade, and the public of Stack System’s unlawful conduct. 3X all profits received by Stack System as a result of its unlawful actions. 3X all damages sustained by SuperSpeed (as a result of Stack System’s actions) The cost of the action All reasonable attorney fees All other relief to which SuperSpeed are entitled and such other or additional relief as just and proper. Oy.
    • I'm not doing this for the hundred and twentieth time. Sorry in advance, but you get the massively abridged version. Those guys also benefited from the weaker/shallower fields. Also, Watson's career doesn't overlap with Jack's like many think it did. Tom is nearly a decade younger. Jack won only like four majors only after Tom won his first. And Tom won more British Opens than he did all three of the other majors combined, as it was his specialty (not Jack's). Arnie's career similarly doesn't overlap Jack's as much as many think.   Jack would also tell you Tiger was the better golfer.
    • Weaker depth of fields for sure. Some of the top level guys with Jack were pretty awesome. Tom Watson had the lead on the 72nd hole of the 2009 British Open, an event where Tiger missed the cut. Old Tom was almost 60 years old. Jack himself at age 58 finished Top 10 at The 1998 Masters and scored better than Tiger, who won The Masters by 12 shots just a year before that.   The success of both Tom & Jack in older age gives some hope that maybe Tiger can find the magic again at some point. He’s still trying to figure out how to build the stamina for 72 holes after the leg injury. I would love to see him jump on the leaderboard in the coming years. I know a lot of people have given up on him at this point, but that was also true from 2014 to 2017 with the back injuries. He had a hell of a resurgence in 2018 & 2019. Would be fun to see it again.
