My "Home Course" season ended 11/12/2023. I was a bit disappointed in the -7 total, but the number was in line with previous seasons. Unless I manage to eagle a hole during the off season, my "Away" results are also final. Now the process of looking forward to the 2024 season begins.

I did not meet the goal this year. I missed out on 8, 10, 14 (!), and 18.

I didn't play much June through August, seeing as how we were moving Golf Evolution. And when I did, I was mostly "practicing" on the golf course. So, I'm not disappointed.

Eagles were down this year as well, of course.

I only birdied 8 of the holes on "My Home Course". By way of comparison, last year I was able to check off 14 of them, not quite twice as many. 


Having said that, I did play a lot of other courses this year. I tried out at least 7 or 8 courses which I've never played before this year. I only played 3 full rounds on my "Home Course" this year. I did, of course, play 12 or 13 Nine-Hole-Rounds in the weekly golf league at my home course. So that added a few birdies. 

My final round at my home course I actually made 2 birdies. But they were both on holes that I already had. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Best this year 4x birdies in a round... really like to get 5x+

Got the 16th PAR4 birdie  .. in SAT medal comp ... a long very hard putt that just dropped somehow ...(couldn't do it again if I tried 50x times!!!)

Got out on Friday and played Whispering Woods, including birdieing the 18th, so technically I can cross that one off. Just 8, 10, and 14 of all holes.

I just realized I kept referring to 14, but I birdied 14 many times this year. 13 is the hole I haven't birdied (plus 8 and 10).

The spreadsheet is right, though. And has been.

    • If I can take a full swing, I'll use the stock club for that yardage.  I can't really get creative.  Just don't have that ability.  In the past, I used a sand wedge for all my shots around the green, opening or closing the face and moving the ball back or forward in my stance to get the flight I wanted.  I am trying now to use different clubs around the green.  I'm less likely to flub it but I struggle with distance control.  More practice required.

Lots of interesting info and it's very funny.  Lou is one of the hosts along with Greg Chalmers and Mark Crossfield.  They love to give each other a hard time.  Lou catches most of it, but he takes it well and dishes out his fair share.  Great show.
