I found the story compelling.   Those ladies might have heard the thanks from the school and the conference but I'm sure every golfer in the conference is grateful for their scores.

Mad props to them for playing, to give the team a chance to play and helped out the conference.

That's a good story. Hats off to the young ladies for sticking it out and being able to laugh about it. I wouldn't be surprised if a YouTube golfer or maybe an LPGA player meets with the team at some point.

Maycee Kay Aycock and Sarah Marshall had never played golf but came to the rescue of D-III...

434 combined for the two of them. But, the title kinda gives it away…

This is particularly relevant to me as… my daughter's team is in their conference (and won the conference championship that concludes the story). We were grateful to these women for playing as it kept the conference at seven women's teams.

I also read this article while I was on Facebook. The really interesting bit, is that Maycee Kay and Sarah are really focusing on improving. Sarah I believe was 70+ strokes better in her second round.

They should be able to score some free gear and instruction from the YT golf community.

Great story!

They’re there next year too.

I cringed a bit at the players and coaches admitting to giving them advice during the round, though. 😀 I get it, but it’s also against the rules.

It would’ve been hilarious if one of the new players doled out two penalty strokes every time their competitor try to help them with advice. 🤣

When I read the article this morning I thought the same thing…. It would have been sad if that happened!

I finally read this article. Great story, and kudos to the women for sticking it out.

That's a cool story. 
I had to laugh when a coach questioned Maycee's legit 5. ... The girl just carded a 177 and you're worried about her 5? There are those who just can't turn off the competitive juices. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

    • Fantastic selection! And very little driving between them. Fingers crossed the weather is good to you.
    • Day 20: 2026.01.22 Hit about twenty balls at the range. Quietly pleased with how the changes are bedding in, surprsingly consistent ball flight. Hoping to film over the weekend to capture new movement.
    • You might also consider a tune-up lesson. Check and see if anything in your set-up or basic swing is holding you back. I have been playing for more than five decades, but on occasion I've had to make swing tweaks due to age, loss of flexibility, etc. You don't have to reinvent your swing. A couple of static set-up changes might really help out.
    • Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip. 
    • Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)
