Depends on your definition of range finder. There was a time I used my phone with a GPS/golf app and checked distances but wasn't really bothered enough whether it was 78 or 80 or 82. I just thought approximately 80 yards and hit. I essentially use the distance markers on the course to gauge distance and play and if that is considered a range finder then every time. If not, virtually never
Last Sunday played a tournament. Bad round in general, particularly short game, since I hadn't touched my clubs for 2 months. But on 17 I hit a great drive. A bit risky because there is a water hazard on the right side of the fairway. Was actually the wrong line and length because another foot and I would have been in the hazard entering it half way up. But from there hit a great 4 hybrid and was around 60 or so yards to the green though just off the fairway. Brilliant PW and within2 or 3 feet. Made the putt
My only eagle.
#18 Far Corner Golf Course Par 5
It was a cold spring day about 15 years ago and I was playing with my oldest friend who is a good player, but more importantly very competitive. Since 7th grade we would play board games, ball sports, table games, cards, you name it, with bragging rights as the trophy. If we ever bet, it’s just for $5 or a beer.
I hit a decent drive and I had 180 to the pin over water. I was going to lay up because it was cold and I was really just starting to play more than a couple of times a year, but he said, “You can’t lay up you wuss!” Challenge!
I took out my 5 wood and somehow hit a beautiful high shot that landed and stayed on the severely sloping back to front green. I had about 20 feet to the pin, but like at the Masters had to putt 90 degrees away from the hole and just let it go down hill. I did just that, hit it and it slowly worked its way down. Plunk. Eagle. I still have the ball.
When editing do the following.
select the shot that is positional like a second on a par 5 or punch out.
shot editor will come up.
there will be 3 dots in the right side, click that.
you can then select positional.
there are other options too.
