I played an early morning round of golf with my dad this morning and was feeling pretty together. My drives were hot (drove pin high and a little right on a 275 yard par 4) and fairly accurate. My short game was as good as I have ever played, and my putting was way above my average.

I was hitting a new 3 wood that I just picked up used to match a 5 wood that I found second hand and really liked and boy did it SING! I pulled it out on a long par 5 where I had driven a solid 250 and had a nice lie in the middle of the fairway. I swung it nice and smooth and smacked the bejeepers out of the shot and landed myself about 40 yards out. My dad looked up and said "What the heck was that??" When I told him it was my new 3 wood, he grinned and said "I think you should hit that more often!".

I usually try to confine myself to what dad and I call "Named golf", meaning shots that there are official terms for. (Yeah, I know if I tell most of you I hit an "oh, crap!" you would know what I mean, but you get the idea.) Today I was hitting bogeys and pars instead of triples and doubles.

When we got to the end of the round and added the scores up, I was stunned to hear my dad tell me that I shot 46 on the back nine and landed myself a 99 overall.

I had made a goal to break 100 before the end of '09. I guess now I have to change that goal to be shooting below 100 consistantly by the end of '09.

I thought I would share my happy moment with all of you here as I guess you can all appreciate it.

Y'all take care!

Congrats a lot man :) That first time breaking 100 feels awesome. In no time you'll be breaking 100 consistently! I'm trying to break 100 consistently as well. Good luck to you!

Grats! I just got under 100 a few weeks ago, and have since had a 97 and a 92. Keep practicing, and play to your strengths. Your scores will only get better.
