High School Golf

[Dent]

Played in a tournament today at my home course. Sucked so bad. Had One 4 Putt, and probably a dozen 3 putts. Took a Triple, a 10 on a par 5, and a bunch of other doubles. Something was really wrong today.

Finished off- 94.

went to go play 9 at a different course and still stunk up the joint. Not even funny I'm so pissed right now.

Hey come on, Dent we all have bad days. I just had a match. We won 8 to 1. Guess who was the only one who lost his match. I don't even want to say it, because I'll get sick.

Thats true, but If you were in my situation you would be slightly discouraged as well.

Last 3 Tournament Finishes: 99, 98, 94.

I just got a call from my coach, he said some lame college contacted him but at least it's a college!
He also told me that I would be team captain again.
Being a captain in my first year of playing on the team was probably the best accomplishment in golf for me so far.

we lost our last match, we all played poorly but only lost by 4 strokes total as a team

It's always twice as hard in tournaments. I've got one coming up this saturday. But it's a best ball. Hope the score will be around 1 or 2 over. Or maybe even even.

Get to play in my first match Monday. Shoot a fifty and made the top 4th out of 5 scores that would play.Should have had a 47 or around there but I putted a par put in with the flagstick in cause no one would tend it. Also, on #8, a par five, I hit one into the no mow zone ane one into the water to end the hole with a 9.

Won the first of 4 matches this week. 243-259. I shot the low with a 40. 3 more to go. Must win on Wednesday at Charles which determines whether we get into the state tournement.

Shot a 46 today, I kept on hitting behind the ball, anybody no why?

My younger sister, who just turned 16, just started playing golf and joined her high school team. However, her coach sucks. While the girls are out playing a round of golf at practice he is not coaching them he is playing around with his buddy.

My sister has told me that she has very little contact with the coach while they are out playing. I don't know about you but I think this is all wrong. The point is to coach these girls so they get better not to get a free round of golf every week.

Does anyone else have this problem with their coaches?

[TCCcaddie]

With my old coach it was the exact opposite. When we had our practice rounds he would stand about 1 foot next to our ball while we hit and would keep standing there to see if we could handle the pressure.

high school golf is a great opportunity to watch your golf game improve. i have been on mine since the seventh grade and im a sophomore now and i watched my handicap drop from too high to know down to single digits and this year im gonna be the top player and get to see if i can get to scratch consistently.

This is pretty much exactly what I did. Started in seventh grade, now I'm a sophomore with a 6 index. It's strange, you don't notice how much better you've gotten until your crappy rounds were once your good rounds. But I can't wait for season, it makes school go by fast and I'm looking forward to be full Varsity this year, our school has a good chance of winning league this year.

We had a 4 team ryder cup match last week. It was great the first 6 holes were fourball, then alternate shot, then match play. My group won 15 to 9

^^sounds like fun. my team did that before the season and we played well but i forgot what the points were at the end. my team just won our district tournament last tuesday and we also won our regional tournament yesterday. state will be next tuesday and wednesday. i play number 3 spot on my team. i have shot 77 so many times over the past week. its annoying me cuz i usually shoot 73-74. best of luck to everybody with state coming up or teams that plan on going to state!!!

[drtbk933]

Played last practice today. Shot my best there ever, a 49. I started the season in mid August shooting high 60's to shooting a 49 five short weeks later. I'm sure If I still had a few more weeks of practice, I could shoot under 45. Just need to get a driver that works for me.
