Shot a 78 at Crandon Park here in Key Biscayne from the tips Saturday. Not my worst round there but the worse i've shot this year. Sad thing is I played really well just couldn't capitalize on birdie puts or get up and down when necessary. Slumps happen, best way to get out of it for me is to go out to whatever your home course is and take a 6 or 7 iron and play that one club tee through green. You will not only iron out your swing but work on your course management, get creative and think shots through. Try it out if you get a chance.

What is your best 1 club round?

I would guess I am about a 10 or so. I played only 2 times this year and shot 83 and 82.

Buy a new driver or demand more cowbell!!! somehow those two always work for me when all else fails.

Yes, indeed. More cowbell!

83 at Hillcrest Country Club (Hollywood Fl) from the red tees. The island green 18 destroyed me.

For the most part I play bogey golf with one club.

84 for me
it was windier (sp??) than hell though

but i am a very boring PAR golfer
I dont score many birdies, just a tonne of broing ass pars

I have been working on my putting a lot lately and it has paid off
i have more birdies in my last 4 rounds, than all year - i think like 7 or so??

no worries bro, it will come around

actually - i scored my first triple all year tonight!! hahah!
but came back with 2 birdies to make up for it - was a tough 39

One 88 and one 86. Total of 43 rounds so far this year.

Given the courses and conditions, the 88 was actually a better round than the 86. I have plenty of excuses for both, but when all is said and done, the numbers are still the numbers....

In David's bag....

I guess I'm trying to make myself feel better as I'm in a slump. Just want to ask if it's normal to have a 2 consecutive rounds of 90 or am I the worst 5.9 on the planet???

I shot an 85 the second round of a pretty big local tournament I was in the top 5 in after the first round. Playing in the second-to-last group, and I was pretty much a spectator after seven or eight holes, it was pretty embarrassing.

So far my worst score is an 86 in the 2nd round of a tournament... knock on wood It can definitely happen!! I have had some pretty disasterous ball striking days lately.

I followed up a pretty solid 76 two weekends ago with an 88. This past weekend I went from a 91 (at a really difficult course) to an 82 the day later.

My worst score this season was an 88 i think. But it was around when the season opened up. My normal blow-up around is around 85.

Don't worry about this too much. Golf is tough and that's why we are so addicted to it. I've shot 85-72 on the same day on the same course this year, but the 72 was from the tips and approx 400 yards longer in total yardage.

88. The dreaded double snowman. I will never golf hung over on 3 hours of sleep again. Lack of sleep does wonders for your timing and judgment.

No just you....maybe putt-putt is your calling.

161 was his final. Not what he shot in one round.

A quote from Kris
...is that college bball really isn't "lower tier". The better teams have their rosters filled with guys who could play in the NBA. hell, guys used to come straight from high school to the NBA. I really don't think there's much of a difference skill-wise between the two.

161 was his final. Not what he shot in one round.

OP stated he shot two consecutive 90 rounds, therefore the comparison to a Nationwide player shooting 84 & 77 (161) in consecutive rounds.

    • First (12 holes) round in a year, maybe the third round in five years. After prioritizing family for a long time, I’m ready to play more golf. We moved back where I grew up and started playing golf. The course is close, but only six holes and pretty short, so the longest club I bring is a 4i. It is very undulated, with a lot of elevation changes and 4/6 greens are blind shots. The long game was relatively good (relative to my game and swing). Got things to work on, but the current state is manageable. One OB. Wedges and short game was atrocious. Chunking like I was making a garden. On the worst hole I chunked a 58° approach, then chunked three chips in a row… Time to search up some chipping topics and start practicing. I’ll take this over bad long game and good short game. The short game is easier to fix. Shot a net +17(!), gross +23, over 12 holes.
    • Day 118 - Spent some time working on the full swing. Need to film some swings for Evolvr tomorrow. 
    • playing with cleveland hybrid irons have friends that use hybrids anyone using hybrid irons or hybrids would appreciate fwwdback
    • I dont know if I really have a favorite, but there are two that have stuck in my mind for a very long time. #15 at Erie Golf course during the Finals of the EDGA Matchplay. Was up early and then lost a few holes in row so the match was close again. My opponent had a short putt for birdie. I hit past hole high, but 35 feet right. I drained the putt and looked over at my opponent who was in disbelief.   #8 at Whispering Woods during another year of the EDGA Matchplay. Was playing a very cocky opponent who made sure to mention on the first tee how many times he won the club championship at this course. I hammered this 30 footer that clanked off of the pin and dropped. My opponent was disgusted and that made me weirdly happy. I went on to win 5&3 or something like that, so that entire day has stayed in my memory. 
    • Day 20: Did 30 minutes after getting home from work, before kid's baseball practice. This session was piecing out the new hip move in transition, doing 2-3 rehearsals from the top, and then hitting a ball from between P5/P6. Did another 45 minutes after baseball practice and dinner. Did 30 more minutes of what I did earlier, and then about 15 minutes of full swings trying to incorporate athletically.
