Yeah, I missed a two footer to beat my dad in Match Play last weekend. He's a 5 handicap and I wasn't getting any strokes, it was going to be the first time I beat him...and I missed and we finished all square...I'm happy I didn't break my putter. I was very tempted to.

I used to be horrible.
Now I just accept the fact that I hit a lot of shitty shots.

Uh, to start off I have a terrible terrible temper. Family history of bad tempers, my dad was the gym teacher with a bad temper(also the golf coach, haha). Two brothers with bad tempers and a college volleyball playing sister that has gotten herself kicked out of the odd volleyball game. Well one point in hockey a player on my team who nobody liked managed to piss me off enough and made a pretty rude comment after i got speared and i threw a bomb at his face and have intentionally hit kids in baseball. Once in grade 7 after screwing up in highjump i javelined the bar but that was in practice and kind of a joke.

Well i've worked on toning it down and even when it was really bad when i was in jr.high and middle school(16 now) i never threw a club. But in the junior open this past week I had started off poorly(first tournament, I've only really started to play this year after being a decent golfer at 11 and 12, i took a few years off and started playing a bit more this year) and I qaudruple bogey'd the first hole, i hit a poor snap hook to the left, then toed one straight out of bounds onto the highway on the first hole. Well on the second hole after 4 putting I grabbed the ball and gave myself a running start and threw a 4 dimpler straight into the bush. And after that, I played so much better.

I played in my club championship this weekend and a player in my group on Sunday threw a wedge after 2 failed attempts to get our of a bunker. He threw it overhand like he was chopping wood. What he didn't realize was it was heading directly at our playing companion. 30+ feet traveled and I don't think it dropped an inch. I could hear it cutting the air before it left his hands. If it had struck the other player, I doubt it would have been shy of catastrophic.

He was very humble after the incodent, I was not amused...

    • First (12 holes) round in a year, maybe the third round in five years. After prioritizing family for a long time, I’m ready to play more golf. We moved back where I grew up and started playing golf. The course is close, but only six holes and pretty short, so the longest club I bring is a 4i. It is very undulated, with a lot of elevation changes and 4/6 greens are blind shots. The long game was relatively good (relative to my game and swing). Got things to work on, but the current state is manageable. One OB. Wedges and short game was atrocious. Chunking like I was making a garden. On the worst hole I chunked a 58° approach, then chunked three chips in a row… Time to search up some chipping topics and start practicing. I’ll take this over bad long game and good short game. The short game is easier to fix. Shot a net +17(!), gross +23, over 12 holes.
    • Day 118 - Spent some time working on the full swing. Need to film some swings for Evolvr tomorrow. 
    • playing with cleveland hybrid irons have friends that use hybrids anyone using hybrid irons or hybrids would appreciate fwwdback
    • I dont know if I really have a favorite, but there are two that have stuck in my mind for a very long time. #15 at Erie Golf course during the Finals of the EDGA Matchplay. Was up early and then lost a few holes in row so the match was close again. My opponent had a short putt for birdie. I hit past hole high, but 35 feet right. I drained the putt and looked over at my opponent who was in disbelief.   #8 at Whispering Woods during another year of the EDGA Matchplay. Was playing a very cocky opponent who made sure to mention on the first tee how many times he won the club championship at this course. I hammered this 30 footer that clanked off of the pin and dropped. My opponent was disgusted and that made me weirdly happy. I went on to win 5&3 or something like that, so that entire day has stayed in my memory. 
    • Day 20: Did 30 minutes after getting home from work, before kid's baseball practice. This session was piecing out the new hip move in transition, doing 2-3 rehearsals from the top, and then hitting a ball from between P5/P6. Did another 45 minutes after baseball practice and dinner. Did 30 more minutes of what I did earlier, and then about 15 minutes of full swings trying to incorporate athletically.
