Birdied the fourth hole at Sewanee a month ago. Forgot to add that. Have only the third hole left on the composite. Hmmm, where can I find a third-hole par-five…? 😄

This month I have made a mess of birdies, putting is off the charts with an average of 29 putts for the last 5 rounds. Still #10 eludes me. Yesterday, driver - knock down 8 to 12 feet. Soooooo close! Another tap in par, lol.

Once again I missed it by one hole. In 2021 it was pesky 16 (which was one of the first holes to fall last year) and for 2022 it was 10. I am playing today and fully expect to birdie 10 the next 3 times I play! 🤣🤣🤣

As I had suspected at the beginning of last year's quest, I was unable to birdie #2 and #15 long par 4 holes at my club (both beyond my distance to reach in 2 from my normal tees).

8th hole today.  Short par 4.  Great drive and maybe 50 yards to the green.  PW and the ball dropped to about 2 feet or so from the pin.  Bit of a left to right slider but made it and happy front 9.

Wrong thread! 🙂  We are in 2023 now, you know... Unless you want to complete the challenge over whatever number of years it takes, lol. I would understand that too.  :beer:

    • I just recently bought two pairs of True, originals 1.2 and a lightweight pair which will have to wait until after Winter.  Very comfortable, but they leaked at the hells, unusual design almost like they have a slipper inside at the back with a waterproof membrane.  The leaked  outside of the membrane, but it eventually crept up into the shoe. I’ve had them replaced, but I haven’t really had a chance to test them yet  
    • Maybe his opinion is based on purely apolitical observations?
    • I currently am building a driver from ground up and need a question answered if anyone can. I have a Taylormade Rocketballz (RBZ) Tour driver head which required a shaft with a .350 tip diameter. I was able to get a shaft with a .335 tip diameter and i don't know much about these adapters for drivers so here is my question: If I buy a .335 adapter that is compatible with a RBZ driver head will that work or do i have to get a driver shaft with a .350 tip diameter?    Sorry if the question is worded in a confusing way but im just trying to figure out if i was use the .335 shaft or if i need to go ahead and buy one that is .350. 
    • Day 9: went to the range at lunch. Worked on short game and putting. I actually got the low spinner to work well for the first time, so that's awesome. Putting was solid, too.
