Bad Day Putting?

Saw this on the 9th tee at a local muni. It wasn’t worth rescuing. 😜 Not mine BTW.

I can’t disagree more. Bad putting days suck, but bad ballstriking days are so much worse.

I threw an Odyssey 2 ball putter up in the air and it got stuck about 30 feet up in a tree, no branches to climb to get it. Major storm came through the next day, must have knocked it loose, someone got themself a two timing betraying no good disappointment to her dad putter

I only ever broke one club and it wasn't intended or in anger.  I used to carry this seven iron I had found on a course around the farm with me and every now and again take practice swings to keep my game in shape.  Unfortunately I decided to use that as a pole to sit on and it worked for quite a while.  Unfortunately, one day, I put too much pressure on it and had it angled wrong.  The shaft snapped in the middle and if memory serves I fell backwards.  I keep that club as a paperweight, but more as a reminder not to do stupid things

I have picked up on a course the business end of an Odyssey putter and a Cleveland wedge in the past. Re-shafted both and gave them to the grandkids.

I always thought it might be fun to stick a very old club in the bag. Then, as a joke during a round, pull it out, have a tantrum, and break it against a tree or toss it into a pond. So far I have successfully resisted proceeding with this plan.

    • Day 42 - Practice session mainly focused on driver. Couple minutes of putting too making sure I did my routine and lined my putter up the same on every putt.
    • If they're just at the start of every fairway… you don't really need a set of tees there, do you? 🙂 People say that, but I don't think it happens nearly as much as they seem to think. At least not since the "golf should beat you up" approach of the 1990s. Heck, WW's back tees are 6840… and the blues are just under 6500… and most people play the whites or forward. Par 72, too. I think people generally are pretty good about playing the set of tees that work pretty well for them. I've seen many courses that do that. Often the courses that have a "red" theme like the "Cardinal" course or something will have the back tees as the "red" tees or the "crimson" tees or whatever. I also like non-colors, like Tobacco Road uses the "Ripper" tees and the "Spike" (I made that one up I think?) tees, so you really have no idea which is which.
    • Day 217, June 5, 2023 Caddied for a player in the US Junior Am qualifier. Did a little mirror work in the evening when I got home.
    • Day 74: 6/5/23 Stack neural training.  2nd session in a row with a dip in speed. Will see what happens on Wednesday prior to a vacation with my family.
