I shot a 44 for 9 holes this evening! It could have been even better, but I put up a snowman on a par 5, thanks to a tee shot into a pond. Still I could not have been happier. I struck my irons better than ever before, I think I might be finally getting over the fats. I only hit 3 greens, but the ones I missed were not by much. I even got up and down for par twice. Normally I can never chip it close enough to do that.
Very excited to see what the rest of the spring and summer will bring. I feel I have the desire to play better, and I think that can be a very important part. Also, while I may be able to play only a couple of rounds a month, I can hit balls in an open field by my house. Im hoping with some more practice, maybe I can shoot a full 18 hole round in the 80's.
Don't know if anyone wanted to hear my rant, but I had to tell someone. My wife could care less.

Congrats man, shot my best 9 the other day a 43 which put me at 95 for the day(my first time breaking 100!!!) Congrats man. It's days like those that make the ole' 110 scores worthwhile haha :)

Congrats! Sounds like people are getting off to a good start this season. I also had my personal best for 9-holes this past Wednesday at my home course. Keep up the good play guys.

It must be that time of year. I tied my best ever 9 today with a 42. 46 back in and ended up with an 88, not a bad day on the course at all.

Nice job man, keep on it and you will easily shoot in the 80's

Congrats!! For me when I shoot a good round like that, it gives me more incentive to go back the next day or soon after and try to do it again.

I shot my best round ever today too. Shot a 95. I went from a 128 to a 109 and now a 95 in 3 consecutive rounds. And I just started golfing at the beginning of the year.

    • Day 21 - Good session with driver and 6i. Hitting real golf balls is quite a bit different from the foam balls, still getting used to that change. 
    • There are so many videos comparing and contrasting everything that I am both overwhelmed and more than a bit skeptical. Your comments above are much more valuable than hours of you-tube videos. Generally speaking, I’d much prefer to read something that someone took the time and trouble to write (such as your comments) than a bunch of videos, or worse, meaningless reviews that seem like they are all cut and paste selections of the same script. I’m more of a RTFM type than a watcher of “instructional” videos. By way of explanation, I don’t watch TV either.  So thanks - I’ll take that under advisement. I have an H3 that I bought for $10 that I’ve been carrying around but not sure why. Seems like a cool club, but I just don’t really know what to do with it. 
    • I was using the window as a mirror. Just trying to be a more aware of the feels for a better backswing. Trying to not be as closed from A1 to A2. Then not letting the club head flip inside. What I was feeling was a pressure my right wrist, and like the palm of my right hand was pushing upward against the grip of the club. My right hand was the underside of the swing path.  Going to play around with this a bit more. It looked pretty decent with mirror/window work. Just wanted to jot it down. 
    • Day 4: 3/26/25 Par4Success workout followed by putting through 50 mm gates.
    • Day 249: did a stack putting session and then worked on 5 foot putts for a bit.
