I shot a 69 -3 today on a 69.2/117 5961 yard course today. Shot a 34 on the front with 1 bogey and 3 birdies and a 35 on the back 9 with no bogies and 1 birdie.

Everything was clicking today, did this with playing the Top Flite Gamers for the first time. I think I've found my ball. :D

Great job! But its usually the indian, not the arrow.

Best bang for the buck out of any ball I've tried. Fantastic 3-piece for only costing $20/dozen.

Great round man. Some people may knock the fact that it wasn't on a real tough track, but I don't care where it was...I have the ultimate respect to anyone who shoots a legitimate (assuming you did, not questioning you...) full 18 hole round under par on any golf course. Just to stick with it mentally is awesome.

I know I had a good round going the other day, shot 36 on the front...I got way ahead of myself, thinking I could shoot below a 75...and what do you know, a 43 on the back.

Congrats that is an awesome round of golf.

They say golf is like life, but don't believe them. Golf is more complicated than that.

    • Depends on the lie, pin location, green.  I would say most of my pitches are with my 60-degree.  Its probably like 90% 60-degree, 10% 56 degree. 
    • Depends on my lie and the green I am working with. If I want to fly and stop, my 58* If I am looking for it to run a bit, my 54* And on occasion if the lie and green call for it, punch and run with my 7i
    • I did the RTJ trail, we just did Grand National and Capitol Hill. We were trying to minimize travel time. It gave us 5 courses to play. You pare playing 3 of the 5 we played.  If I had to pick, I would play the Lakes over the Links at Grand National. Links felt too penal on approach shots. If you can't get height or spin, it felt like every ball that hit the center of the green ran off the back. A lot of the greens require force carry, no running it up. It just wasn't that fun to play.   Judge - Really good course, some really cool holes and terrain.   Senator - Really fun open course. They call it link style, I can't remember how much you can play the ball down, but it has the aesthetic appeal.   
    • I do that at the range; I just have been going through a half-assed pre-shot routine. 😇 I just kind of waltz up to the ball and hit it. I catch myself just going through the motions of aiming. Once I started aligning my club to an intermediate target, I felt like I was aligned way open to the target but just trusted it. Like, if the club was aimed at the flag in the middle of the green, then my body was aligned left of the green or more (assuming something like a 100+ yard shot). I think I was more concerned with where my feet were lined up and not the clubface.  A question on alignment then.  So, the ball is like what, 3-FT away from the toe target line. So, does that mean if my toe line is aimed at the flag, the club is aimed 3-ft right? Does the perception of the green looking smaller in the distance impact that in terms of how we hit the shot? I feel like the geometry should work that the ball is actually aimed 3-FT right.
