thats awesome!! hahah!

I've realized that at any given time in this game, anyone can get their dick knocked in out there - it's just how you respond to it that separates the men from the boys.

I shot a 99 the last time I played and lost about 8 balls. Started off with a 10 so things were bad from the beginning!

The funny thing was I didn't even feel like I was hitting it all that bad just got every possible bad break that I could have (good drives 1 ft off fairway into US Open thick rough, terribly awkward fairway lies, putting over dead parts of greens, etc). I've played the same course and shot in the high 80's and felt like I played worse that I did with the 99... strange game.

Driver: Callaway X460 Tour

I give you a ton of credit for finishing the round. So many would simply walk off or start hitting mulligans. You play like a winner.

I'll be another one to join in the misery. Played yesterday(8/7) and it was far and away the worst scoring round I could ever remember playing. Sad part of it was, my ballstriking really wasn't much of the problem...I was just getting every unlucky break a person could imagine.

The course is a very mature tree-lined course and while yes my driving( I could not find the swing all day long..so frustrating) was putting me into some bad spots...it was all compounded because my ball would come to rest right behind the trunk of a tree leaving me no way to advance forward or I would go through the tree line but not once did I go back through the tree's...I would hit a solidly struck shot that would make square contact with the tree and go further behind me than I was to start with. I felt like my ball was evil today and just trying to find wood to hit..all except my woods, lol. I laughed it off, had fun with the guys I played with..and just tried to shake it off. I'm gonna play again in the next couple days just to get it out of my system. I would be left with the most difficult chips and/or constantly be left with fast downhill chips.

Forgot my total for the round...101 :( Haven't shot that since I first picked up the game five years ago

My philosophy on golf "We're not doing rocket science, here."

      Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?

      Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
