I think I knocked off the par challenge awhile ago, but haven't added a new birdie for awhile. Finally got a new birdie (on #5) today. This is a tricky hole for me, so happy to scratch this one off. Still have 10 birdies to go with at most 5 rounds left this year.

Here's the deal, folks: I'd like to play enough golf and birdie every hole at Whispering Woods in 2020. I'd like you to join me on this quest. So, I've set up a spreadsheet here:

Completed "Birdie - Challenge" yesterday with a great shot on the 18th hole to 2 feet for the final hole to bird. Made 4 birds yesterday and 3 again today. Decent rounds, but had a few poor swings

WooooOOOOOOO!!!!!! Finally pulled it off in about the 14th round at Whispering Woods (from the blue or black tees)! I needed 1 and 2, and most of the time, I'd show up and roll onto the first tee

This might have been the final weekend for play this year, and I didn't quite make it.  I did birdie #9 on Saturday, giving me 17 holes, but I haven't made birdie on #14 all season.

Been working on this all year and have 16/18 holes birdied this year at my home course Pebble Creek GC in Tampa.  Unfortunately I caught COVID before Thanksgiving and have been off the course.

Since the last post I hit up 10, 12, 15 and last week I ripped off 5 birdies in one round, 3, 4, 7, 9, 12 then followed the next round by hitting 12 and 14. So all I need is 2 and 6 to complete the challenge and I didn't start until June. 

Last few rounds 1, 5, 7, 12, and 18. I have a crack tomorrow at 2 and 6 otherwise its not a bad 6 month birdie run.

Added a new birdie today, but it's 2021. Will there be a 2021 tracker?

Edit: nevermind, saw the 2021 topic.

I carded my first round on what's going to be my home course this year. AND... made my first birdie on that course. Yay, for me!

I didn't play that great, I had a surprising number of hosel shots... which made me a little concerned because I wasn't expecting them.  

However, it was simply beautiful weather for late March and I played an afternoon round with another guy and we got the whole thing done in about 3 hours. We played behind 4 senior citizen gentlemen who were playing behind at least two other groups. I was absolutely shocked how everyone moved along. I probably just jinxed myself, but again, for how many folks were on the course, everyone was moving along quickly. 

2021 is already way better than 2020. 
In 2020, I didn't make a birdie on my home course until October 6th!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm way ahead of that this year!

Played 1-9, then hopped over to play 13, 14, and then had to come in, birdied 4, 5, and 7. 5 was a duplicate. Had a birdie putt stop just short on 9 and 13 both.

Drats.

      Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
