I think I can safely speak for 99% of this board in saying that I wish I sucked enough to shoot a 75.

Agreed. Shooting a 75 is a problem I would LOVE to have.

Not sure what you want from this group. Maybe a hug?

I'd prefer a putting lesson at this point. Time to crack my copy of Harvey Penick's Little Red Book and re-learn how to do it right.

I just finished a week of some of the most piss-poor golf since I started taking the game seriously again four years ago. Nice 76 today, nice 75 yesterday. The 75 yesterday included five three-putts and my old Rossie finding a watery grave in the pond by 18 at my home course. I went and got a new putter last night, putted pretty well with it today, but then I forgot how to get the ball to the green. I'm not even going to waste my money playing in the Norfolk City Am in two weeks. F**k it.

Give me a break.....

2 weeks is a long time. your game will go on a trend up then down then up again. by the time your tournament comes around you will be on another down trend shooting easy75. your probably just over complicating it like 90% of scratch golfers do. i know i do it all the time, just stop worrying about the putt you are going to leave yourself and putt everything for the hole. if your a 0.3 your putting stroke is the problem, you just need a good 3 hours on a green then another 3 at the range and you'll be good to go. these people are all hating on your problem but any scratch golfer knows that it is so frustrating to lose those simple strokes because without those small changes we might as well be the average hacker

Dude relax..... Its the Norfolk City Am. You get more prestige by winning the weekend foursome blitz at Ocean View. I'd love to be a club repair guy for a player like you. I could give up my day job.

I played Ocean View three times this year - twice during the Snowman invitational (our team was winning the championship flight when we forgot how to play golf the last four holes) and once earlier this summer. I think I paid for the repairs on William Carson's range picker (Peninsula Golf, the one across from K-Mart on Mercury) with all my broken clubs

Are the greens at OV any better now? They sucked back in May/June.

Sounds like you need something by Bob Rotella and not the Little Red Book.
