Do any of you guys have rounds like this? I hardly ever put 2 good sides or 2 bad sides together but often have crazy swings from my front 9 to back 9 scores. If i shoot in the mid 40's on the front I feel confident going into the back 9, but if I shoot even par on the front I know there's a good chance im doomed on the back. Hit 3 balls OB and 2 in the water on the front and the back 9 i had 4 birdies and only 1 bogey.

Wow, didn't think the spread could get larger than mine the past 2 weekends: 51/40 and 51/39. Good to know it's not just me. Lol.

That's amazing.  I've had some big ones, but 16 strokes is better than anything I've ever managed.

I get a chuckle out of thinking how different my reaction (and perhaps yours too??) would be to a 49-33 than it would be to a 33-49.

A 49-33 would make me proud for staying calm and working through the adversity, and a 33-49 would make me want to quit. ;)

I do it all the time. Funny how quick things can change. Usually just one or two bad holes for me. Not sure what the deal is but my instance of total WFT holes seems to be increasing. I can make 5 pars in a row then blam a triple/quad on a par 3 comes out of nowhere. Always something stupid like wussing out on a bunker shot that lands in deep rough worse than any bunker lie. The following crap chip leaves me a 80 foot putt that I not only misread but leave 50% short then at least a couple more to get it holed. Last year my double or worse % was just a little higher than my birdie %. My par % is up, bogey is down and double is getting higher as the season progresses.

Funny I had that this past weekend, started off with a triple, par, triple, par, bogey, it went like this the whole round. Never got a birdie, tossed the card on the back 9 and just had fun. :doh:

Oddly enough I've heard teachers say they would rather work with a golfer that shots 49/33, then the one that shots 41/41.  I guess the premise is if you can go low, you might be able to go really low.  I would have a very short memory on the 49 and only think about the 33, some day you will put together back to back 33's!

Yeah, wanna make 14 dollars the hard way?

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. 
    • Perceptive rules question by caddie unlocks Tour pro’s ‘dead zone’ relief A perceptive rules question by Xander Schauffele’s caddie, Austin Kaiser, unlocked “dead zone” relief during the Wells Fargo Championship.
    • I ran across an interesting new clip, Johnson Wagner went into that spot with the Referee who allowed the relief.  Apparently there was a perfectly reasonable shot to be made, as Johnson clearly demonstrated, so relief from the TIO was perfectly appropriate.
