Shot 68 with 2 doubles

[normdamarine]

Man, what an afternoon round today... I shot a 68 with 2 doubles... I almost made a hole in one on 3, 2 inches, doubled the next hole then flew it in from 42 yards on the par 5 8th for an eagle. I then flew it in from 67 yards on the par 4 12th for another eagle. Then I reached the par 5 13th in 2 and 2 putted for another birdie. I then decide to pump one into the hazard on the left on the next hole for another double. What do I do then, hit it to 6 feet on the par 3 17th, in the hole for birdie and then hit it to 10 feet on 18 and made the putt... One crazy arse round I tell you... Now this is a course that has had my number, it is a new course that is very very tough... I went in and talk to the pros and it is the unofficial course record... AHAHAHAHAH my friend had the unofficial record t 69 he shot a few weeks ago... Silly game...

2 doubles??? Man, those little Windmill holes can be tough, as can be the hole where you putt it thru the Clowns feet.

Holy crap man! 68 with 2 doubles!! That is nuts. Congrats on the round.

[normdamarine]

Thanks man, the only difference was the 2 eagles that went in from the fairway... Funny game

[montru]

Incredible round, well done, Ill be there oneday lol.

Wow nice round man. I had a few doubles today..but I didn't shoot a 68...hahahahah.

[GrahamD]

Pretty impressive, I also had 2 doubles today aswell but I shot a 76 (par 72) :(

[normdamarine]

The funny thing is the 12th hole's green a freaking retarded. The pin, where it was is almost impossible to birdie because it is on the front of the green on a huge hump. I have hit that shot a few time and have not hit inside 10 feet because it releases and I put a heck of a lot of spin on the ball. But it flew in and I was laughing my butt off...

Any chance you'll reconsider retiring from the game?

If you could learn to teach others, maybe a second career?

[IcemanYVR]

haha... sounds like one of my rounds

I had 2 doubles today as well... except they were on the rocks

[AceDunk]

Funny game indeed. Following up eagles with doubles is so much fun I can't even tell you.

[normdamarine]

That was funny about the double on the rocks... I have thought about teaching when I retire, I am not sure yet but we will see. Yeah, following eagles with doubles will almost make you want to split your head in half but it is the rub of the green... I followed yesterdays round today with a smooth 75, NICE!!! I shot 2 over on the front and missed 4 birdie putts on 10, 11, 12, and 13 that were inside 10 feet... Caught a flier on 14 that went over the green OB for another double and birdied 16. But had a fun round with some good friends and won a little money...

[James_Black]

are you thinking about joining a tour in the future?

looks like you've got the talent for it.

[normdamarine]

One thing I do know is the big tours are for the young guys and I am almost 40. I have thought about the Champions tour and maybe playing on some mini tours when I retire but we will see... It really is all mental with me, it was not just a few weeks ago I was thinking about quitting just because I getting bored with the game. But it is amazing how you can change your putter and need to start focusing again because you are not sure where it may go, lol...

Taiyo golf course? I recently moved to Okinawa...played Taiyo once and Banyan tree twice...playing Taiyo on Monday wish me luck!

[normdamarine]

Yes, the 68 was on Taiyo... And the 68 was from the tips, and I am sure you know how sick that course is... By the way welcome to Okinawa, I am getting ready to head back to the states.
