Oh finally! It took 8 years but I finally shot a round (9 holes) under par! Shot a 35/36 on our course, and with a horrid 16 putts. I'm a pretty consistent golfer, which is why my handicap is fairly low, but I've never been able to hold that consistency to birdies and pars. (usually pars and a few bogeys).


I'm writing this here because my awesome computer won't let me get on the thread "What Did You Shoot Today?"

I just had to get that out there. Have fun golfing Sandtrappers!

Awesome news man!!

I shot my first nine under par today as well. Nudged a 34, par 36.

Unfortunately, I did it without any consistency at all. I've never had much consistency in my game, but i'm coming around.

I needed 3 birdies and an eagle on the back nine to get under par...irons and putter just seemed to work today.

I'm envious of that handicap....I need to keep working.


Congrats again on your accomplishment!!

70.1/119

That's about what all the courses I get to play are running. A couple of 119's and some 120's, but I don't get a real test until I go visit family in Dallas and play down there.

yea I get where you are coming from kevin. I just recently started to get more birdies going in my round. I used to average about 1-2, and now I'm at around 2-5. But, theres some holes where I just fall apart and get those bogey's and doubles. I just can't get the birdie-par thing going on. Its usually the birdie-bogey thing.

Haha. Well I did the same thing today. I shot an 81 with 4 birdies

I blame it on my driver. OH GOOD NEWS. I got a new putting grip today! I used to have a baseball grip, and now I just moved my index finger to run straight along the grip. So its a baseball grip, with my index finger out straight along the club instead of behind the grip. It helps so much with consistency and speed. Its like McDonalds. I'm lovin' it.

    • Day 159 - Played 9 holes, mediocre round. No “shanks”, so I have that going for me…
    • Day 62: Priority piece work with 7-iron, half swing punch shots. 
    • Day 5:  Practiced with my 7i at home then some putting at the range before playing 9 holes.  I really thought I was going to beat my best score by 2 or 3 strokes but I tied it.  
    • Buddy… Bolding and capitalizing one word out of over 120 is not yelling. And seriously, be a student of history or something. The U.S. Open often gets harder as it goes on. -5 might end up as the winning score. Plus, there wasn't a ton of wind today. And… these players are pretty good. The "these courses are too easy" takes can just go away. We've had enough with one person's perpetual posts on that topic, we don't need another.
    • First, thanks for capitalizing and using bold print for the word “facts.”    That was helpful.   Second, it must be a “fact” that the score relative to par today had nothing to do with the quality of the entire US Open field vs the quality of the entire Memorial field on day one.   Again, thanks for the text equivalent of yelling.
