2024 TST Birdie Challenge

I had to update finally. Total of 4 birdies now on home course. Missed an eagle putt by inches on a par 5 on two different days but made the birdie. I'm loving the new Taylormade Spider Tour putter.

Picked up birdie #5 Monday - on #11 the 2nd hardest hole on the back at Minnesott.  This hole has been a tough one with pond protecting the front of the very elevated green.  Solid drive that led to a good 7i into the green to about 15' or so.  Solid roll dead center of the cup...

4 birdies today, but only 2 new holes: 3 and 18. 8 and 15 were already checked off.

Ok, it's been a while, but I finally got the 18th hole! It was the only one left over from last year and it took 14 months, but I got it today. It is a slight dogleg right, plays 425 up to an elevated green into the prevailing wind. Playing slightly up, I hit driver and had about 160 into the green. Hit 6 iron to 4 feet and with a straight uphill putt made it center cut! Now I can stop thinking about that hole! 

All I have left this year is 5, 15, and 17.  Let's Go!

I picked up two for the "Away" listing. It was somewhat of a surprise that I did not double up on either birdie but both holes were open. I hope to work on the "Home" listing this Friday.

Birdied the short par 4 7th hole at Neshanic Valley GC, Meadow course. Tees were up and I drove the green with my 4w. Two-putted from 60'.

Grand Niagara. Now 9 hole course

birdied 8 from the front tees. But at my handicap that still counts.

Finally, birthday number seven, just short in two & pitched to about 5 feet. 
front nine all done!
Also, got a lucky eagle on three, caught a nine iron a smidge  fat, never left the  pin landed short and rolled in the hole

Birdied No 7, auto correct :-))

Last Sunday played a tournament.  Bad round in general, particularly short game, since I hadn't touched my clubs for 2 months.  But on 17 I hit a great drive.  A bit risky because there is a water hazard on the right side of the fairway.  Was actually the wrong line and length because another foot and I would have been in the hazard entering it half way up.  But from there hit a great 4 hybrid and was around 60 or so yards to the green though just off the fairway.  Brilliant PW and within2 or 3 feet.  Made the putt

For the first time since 2021, I made a 3 on the 12th at Stoneleigh.    395 yards, something like 80 feet uphill, I hit a solid drive and a 7-wood to inside a foot.  Even I couldn't miss that one.  I feel like I haven't played a lot of golf this year, but I'm making decent progress.

I got another one today....Number 17. Par 5 that has water left and right on the layup. I smacked a drive down the left side and got a little lazy on the layup and fanned my 6 iron. With 112 to a crowned green I got it to 3 feet and birdie!  Only 5 and 15 is left for this year!

Snap @ Tour Spoon!

Birdied 11 yesterday. Hit a poor iron ,stopped on edge of bunker , pitch with my lob wedge landed about 6’ away and went in.

Only 12 & 14 to go, long par5’s into the prevailing wind.

Might be waiting a while although I did have about 15’ on 12 after the birdie on 11, didn’t miss by much.
