38 (+2) and 46 (+10).

I've done this more than once, although sometimes the good and bad 9's are switched around.

50/39

It was like 4 degrees, raining and windy for the front nine, then it got to around 13 degrees and sunny with little wind for the back nine....

About 4 years ago I went 59-40 at Coyote Moon up near Tahoe in CA. At the turn I put my woods into my dad's bag and told him not to let me have them back LOL. Dropped a downhill 20 footer that broke both directions to keep it out of triple digits.

Earlier this year. It was probably the craziest day I've ever had golfing.

46/34

Needless to say my front nine was absolutely horrendous. I couldn't do anything right. However, instead of getting all upset and worked up about it, I stayed calm and collected and proceeded to tear up the back nine.

Stay positive folks!

My biggest disparity came last fall. I joined up with another single who was just starting out playing. I was absolutely railing the ball. 40 on the front 9. I immediately fell flat on my face on the 10th hole and ended up with a 56 coming in. It was awful.

I was trying to defend a local tournament I had won a couple years ago, and had the pressure really get to me.

Shot a 72 the year before (36-36) and came out and fired a 49 on the front nine trying too hard to make shots. I relaxed on the back, threw a 36 on the board and went home with a pretty ugly 85.

Definitely my biggest disparity, although I'm sure there has been numerous 7-10 shot differences.

A few weeks ago on vacation. It was the second to the last day, I had contracted a cold, sleeping all 5 of us (myself, wife, 3 1/2 year old and 15 month old twins) in the same room left me exhausted. I shot 34 (-2) on the front and a smooth 48 on the back for a nice, solid 82.

    • Day 4, 1/2/26.  Played 18 today;  didn't get a chance to warm up (had I known the range was closed, I'd have hit balls at home first).  Played okay, 92 with three balls in the water.  It was raining for more than half the round and I didn't quite appreciate before today just how much I benefit from roll on both drives and approach shots.  I did not adapt well to this change until about hole 15, which is something I have to figure out.  
    • Day 143 1-2 Arch wrist in downswing. Having a SLIGHT cup in the lead wrist at the top now. Only paused swings with some rehearsals before swinging at ball.  Used foam ball. 
    • Day 459 - 2026-01-02 Had two guys on GEARS Hybrid, so I hopped on afterward (I'm going to do this a lot more often now). So… I've signed myself up for another month of backswing work in two ways: A little more extension of the trail elbow (got into the upper 90s) Less pelvis turn (low 50s).
    • Day 31 (2 Jan 26) - Usual Friday men’s group shootout - good day of shot making  as most shots were right on line to the target point.  Putter and green reads were solid with some great par saves and a really tricky birdie.  
    • Day 13 - 2026-01-02 One hour short game work. Chipping balls to different targets, compass putting drill with 2-3% slope.
