42, 40 today. I hit 11 fairways with 3, 300 yard + drives. Thirteen is 334 yards and a blind drive. I putted from just off the front of the green then tapped in for a birdie. I hit 8 greens in reg but had four 3 putt greens. I'm striking the ball better than I have in years. I'm an old guy, 56, so I'm thrilled to be improving. I can't wait for spring!

Thanks. I'm sure some people doubt this and I can't drive 300 yard regularly. I average about 250-260. I've really been working on my mechanics and it pays.

    • Dublin Coddle (Irish Sausage and Potato Stew is my guess. I would go with haggis, but that is Scottish.
    • These are the courses that I remember, but there may be others that I’m not remembering at the moment. I broke 100 atOakland Hills one time, but what I shot otherwise will be taken to the grave with me.    Country Club of the North - Several LPGA tournaments NCR Country Club South Course - 51st PGA, 41st US Women’s Open, 05 US Senior Open (attended) TPC Michigan - Ford Senior Players Championship Valhalla - 24, 14, 2000, and 96 PGA Championships, 11, and 04 Senior PGA Championships, 08 Ryder Cup Oakland Hills - 08 PGA Championship, 04 Ryder Cup, 96, 85, 61 and other US Opens TPC Sawgrass - The Players Championship

    • For me it was combo of good drama and total last man standing collapse... But it showed me once again that "ball rollback" is nonsense...when courses are set up to punish missed fairways and greens, that's where the quality golf (or total collapse) takes place...hurting the rest of us because a relatively few can bomb it 100 yards farther is idiotic...that Young bomb on 18 was gutsy... He misses the fairway with that he likely doesn't win, at least on that hole...
    • Followed by the longest drive on 18 in the shotlink era. That is a tough shot and he stood up there and did it. Fair play to him.
