COME ON, 30s!

[Grndslmhttr3]

Ahhh, 42 yesterday, 41 today! I'm hoping to break 40 for the first time ever, and quite soon! My swing feels amazing, but I three-putted twice today and could not make anything within 10 feet. :(
I feel that if I keep at it, I'll see a good ol' 38 or 39 on my scorecard very soon!

work on your distance control with your putter and you will soon be in the 30s.

I am hoping to break the same threshold. Don't let that looming number make you tense. Focus on every shot individually.

Same here. The best nine I have shot is a 42, but I think I can break that this summer.

I know I will break it this summer. ...just need to be patient.

Carl, since you and have the same handicap, we should make it a bet. Whoever breaks 40 first this summer buys the other a sleeve of balls of their choice.

Hmmm. Never played a match (so to speak) over the interwebs.

Its good to have goals, but dont create a mental hurdle so large that it makes it difficult for you to jump over. Just let the force floooooow.

Shot a 49 last night. Disgustified I am.

We've all been there, plugged. Don't get too distraught.

My first match of the season is at the Ace Club (where the Exelon Invitational is held), which is one of the toughest courses I've played. I'm looking forward to playing a beautiful course, but at the same time, I'm rather intimidated by its length and difficulty. I guess this is where playing "smart golf" comes into play.

I would have had a 39 if not for a few missed 3 footers and a double bogey resulting from putting my tee shot in the water on a 3 par.

Good show and great to hear. IIRC you play in South Jersey. When I was very active, Willowbrook in Moorestown was my favorite.

I have posted three 44's, but cannot seem to combine it with a second <45 to break 90. I have 44-50, 48-44 and 50-44....

It's killing me.

zapppa I know what you mean... all my rounds have been 45-40 type rounds thus far.
the last two saturdays i have shot 42-37 and 41-36, and the front is certainly not tougher than the back.
Just the way the golfing gods are!
