Howdy, been golfing more than just on occasion for about 7 years. Started out near 110, got that down to a consistent 100 after about 2 seasons (our seasons are fairly short... May-Sept), then got that down to 90-95 for the next several seasons. Last season and this season consistently shooting 85-90. I feel like my ability level has improved in the past season so I hope to shoot in the low 80's to high 70's soon. If this doesn't happen this year, it surely will next. I need to work on my temper more than anything at this point... when I hit a bad shot or miss a bunch of short putts my head starts spinning and it can take a couple holes to calm down. I realize this so once I get that under control I'm sure my score will follow.

Even par through 9 is my best.  I don't even want to think about what was my worst.

New to the board, live in Waukesha. Always looking for someone to head out with, as I don't have many friends/family who golf a lot.

And I guess I'll change it up a bit. . . ..

    • The term I hear most often is "double teeing" which means the course/club has starting times from both the #1 and #10 tee.  I have encountered this many times and we know if we are the first group off #10, we may well get to #1 and have to wait because there are groups still with tee times yet to tee of #1.  In most instances, where the course/club has a starter, he normally explains this situation.  In this case, the pro advised what you would could/would encounter making the turn to #1.  And, that is exactly what happened.  Probably would have been wise to talk to the pro after playing back 9 and ask when you could go off #1 since apparently that club does not double tee.   Regardless, the outburst towards the other group was uncalled for.  And, I don't blame the member for being upset.  As a member of a private club, you are responsible for the actions of your guest.  I have played many times as a guest in the UK and I am pretty damn sure my host was responsible for my actions while at the club.  I know at the clubs I have belonged to here in the US, that is the way it is.  As a matter of fact, the member may find himself being brought before management and facing possible suspension.  So, I don't blame him for being upset.  However, as the host, he really should have stepped up and put a stop to the OP's actions.  JMHO
    • Day 32: worked for about 10 minutes on my drill. Filmed it as well for a check in. I think it’s slightly better but still seeing some issues. 
    • Day 44 (26 Dec 25)  -  played in the Friday men’s shootout with a twist - used the Toney Penna persimmons and MacGregor blades - had a blast playing these clubs.  They really help in zoning in on making solid ball contact.  Scoring was solid - had several looks at birdie and had a few par saves.  Overall a day of focused course management. 
    • Day 2: 2025.12.27 Eighteen holes at Kauri Cliffs. Focusing on trying to keep flex in right leg during backswing.
    • Day 136 12-26 Had a different practice planned today but life happened. Worked on "wide to wide" and still working on remaining flowy. Starting the club head in front of the ball as a drill, is helping with the flow of the swing.
