70.2/128, but when I'm feeling lazy I play their nine hole which is 34.7/108. I always play the whites, I don't want to be "that guy" who is an 18 handicap but plays from the blues.

Lenzie Golf Club , par 69, rating 69.5/128.

While CONGU sadly doesn't support slope ratings (or a sensible handicap mechanism in general), the Scottish Golf Union almost did. As a result, The Pope of Slope has slope ratings for most Scottish courses , which are useful if you want to use another tracking system (e.g. Scorecard) for your handicap.

70.7 / 131

Course rating, which affects handicap differential more than slope, is at least a stroke too low there. Makes the handicap travel very nicely, though.

My closest course is a small 6-hole course (3860 yards), but I've got some others around here that pose a bigger challenge. The 6-hole course is short, but very narrow and with heavy undulation, so it is quite tricky. One of the holes has been changed from a short par 4 to a par 5, so the length, slope and par value will be updated this season.

6-hole course, 58.7/129
18-hole course, 73.3/149


The 18-hole course is one of the most beautiful we have in the country, and it's a challenge with 6540 yards.

Have heard of that one, Ray. Old Robert Muir Graves design, if memory serves?

Tough as everyone says, huh? DoctorK

Competitive golf is played mainly on a five-and-a-half-inch course... the space between your ears.

    • Day 37, June 10.  Today was primarily WFH, so I had several practice sessions (indoors, off a mat, into the net).  At least one each of U, 9, and 6-iron full swings with the usual priority.   I also tried a few times a putting type stroke with my 4H, as something I should probably learn how to hit (and what it does), but the mechanical shot at home off a mat doesn't tell me much of what it's doing.  That's something I should probably try on a real green, not during a round until I've tried it.
    • Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.  
    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
