With the net double bogey rule that's a 67 right? Pretty great! 😄

Hitting his ninth shot from the tee box, he found the fairway with a 4-iron and proceeded to make a 5 on his fifth ball.

[…]

“The wind was blowing pretty hard to the right. I normally hit draws. With the tee box up, I decided to take driver out and see where it would get me. Ended up hooking that one out of bounds. Then we took 3-iron twice and ended up going through the fairway and bouncing out of bounds. Then I took a 4-iron, bounced out of bounds as well. Then finally got the fifth one in play.”

This is a good story and would be even better if we had the page from the yardage book for this hole. I was looking at it on Goggle maps, but unforunately there are 6 courses at this club!! Maybe I will call the club later today.

I would be a great lesson to understand the errors in course management that led to this man's personal horror story 😀

 

UPDATE: it was the Marshwood course.

great lesson

IMHO lesson here = shit happens. He had already tried to course manage this hole with the wind, shape of the hole, and his draw tendency. He accounted for everything as well as he could. Sometimes the golf gods just taketh.  

I am guessing the dude completely abandoned what happened on this hole out of his mind and picked up right where he left off to shoot 74.

+1 vote to the OP. Awesome!

He then hit two 3is through the fairway and then even a 4i, right?

Reminds me of Kevin Na's 16 during round one of the 2011 Valero Texas Open.  He wasn't even able to break 80 for the round. 

 

Great recovery for Chris!

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By StuM · Posted

      The chatter in my brain is when the distance is between clubs since I am pretty weak at shortened backswings, etc. I try to simply decide if being long or short is the better outcome and choose my club based on that and simply not even try for the “real” distance.  For me a full normal swing is what I strive for.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I saw this comment made in a golf article... "Most golfers stand over a 4- or 5-iron still negotiating with themselves. They think about how hard to swing, whether they have the right club, if they have the aim correct and more. It’s a lot to deal with and long irons punish the “half-in” golf swing." I am not sure the "most golfers" is correct regarding the bolded part. I can understand if there is a bunker, water, and/or OB that a lot of golfers would be fixated on that. I am not sure that leads to ending up more times there. Pending your level in golf, the variance is so large in outcomes, it could be just with in the expected outcomes. I can understand if have a big lake on the right side of the hole being one of the most terrifying shots for right-handed amateur golfers.  I am not sure many golfers are standing over the ball talking to themselves, "Ok, maybe I should step back and pull the 4-iron. Am I lined up right? Oh, the wind came up, should I swing harder? What am I going to have for dinner tonight, maybe steak. (Joking, somewhat 😛)" A question is that how much chatter do you get while standing over the ball. Are you questioning the everything about your golf shot?
