I've been battling back from a long spell of only playing a couple times per year and not being able to break 110, and I've really started to see some improvement. It's been alot of work this summer, but definitely worth it. I hadn't carded a birdie in over 5 years, and got a 2 on a 148 yard par 3 this past weekend. It felt awesome to finally see things happening the way I visualized them. It was a 9 iron to about 10 feet, and I was pretty elated when the putt dropped.

Of course, I blew up for a 7 on the next hole, but hey, that's golf.

Yea your the same as me..I get about 100-120 My best so far is only 103 But i only started golf this year. ( I played before when i was 10-11 but i was as intertsted as i am now.)

Ive never had a birdie..but i only have been to 4 courses ( 4 nine holers)

But well done. Whenever i get a par i jump alot. Wonder what its like to get par.

Im only 13 so i hope i break 100 in a year maybe .

Anyways Congrats

Cool! I'm still looking for my first par (I've come close) and get pretty excited over a bogey. Congrats on your birdie and many more.

      I've been putting whilst looking at the hole and it's definitely helped my distance control

      Determining Out of Bounds

      I wonder if that is why my home course basically have no stakes now.  Not even markers.  It’s completely up to golfers to remember what is OB and hazard and how things used to be marked.     Even in tournaments, there is no marking and certain areas are played differently by different golfers who either don’t know better or use it to their advantage funny reading thru this with courses that actually have markers

      Electrolytes

      By Elmer · Posted

      Great post, thanks for the informaiton. I try to avoid adding salt to anything I eat. I tend to add pepper on to my meals as opposed to salt. And I am trying to eat as clean on possible. On golf day, I eat 3 eggs for breakfast (pepper NO salt) and a salad for lunch, with grilled chicken thigs (pepper, garlic, no salt). I have been trying to avoid processed food, but we all slip. I also should have mentioned that the electrolyte packet calls for mixing with 16 oz of water, however I mix in 32 oz of water, so I dilute the electrolyte powder.

      LIV Golf Now Closed?

      By imsys0042 · Posted

      So if I read the news correctly, the PIF will not fund LIV after this season.  LIV is trying to find new funding and a number of players there are now asking about getting back to the Tour.    I am very, very concerned that Taylor Gooch will not have a place where he can make a jackass out of himself soon
