Played 9 holes and tried to bring my "smooth tempo" and "no hero shots" mentality to the course. 

+2 +1 +2 +0 +1 +1 +1 +0 +2 = 46. 

I was not hitting consistently, but my errors were straight. Good damage control, with my worst holes at +2. Pleased with the result.  Smooth tempo makes my misses all good. Thin an iron and it still is on the fairway, etc. I did not hit a single trouble shot (but many layups)

Had a nice flop shot with little green to work with. Also had a decent bump/run w/ 8 iron. Expectations are realistic (chip onto green = win) 

Biggest issue is that I am getting no loft on my shots, except PW.
