Zero, yes that is ZERO Greens in Reg for an entire round!!

My ball striking is so bad lately that I actually played an entire round without hitting a green in regulation. I barely hit any fairways either. Thanks to my short game, I mustered an 82 but it was the ugliest 82 ever.

Beats the ugly 107 I shot yesterday.

I'd love to have the talent to shoot 82 without hitting a green. Heck, I'd love to break 90 again period.

[mcgriff]

I try not to track too many stats. Only one matters and that was the 82. Look at it this way: what good things did you do to shoot ok without seeing the fairway? Something must have been going right.

[jamo]

Wow. Your short game was as good as your long game was bad. Impressive yet sad at the same time.

[clam fist]

I'd trade scores with ya.

[zeg]

Try going 6 months without one and you'll know the hell I live in...

[out_in_30]

sounds like the opposite of me lately.... i feel like i havent had an up and down for weeks.. ive been hitting a ton of greens in regulation though while when i miss the green... im bogeying... my chipping/pitching is just right now...ugh

Yeah, that's my game in a nutshell. On Golf Digest's website you can track your stats and they give you a separate handicap for you short and long game. My long game is a 14 and my short game is a 1.

[max power]

That's got to be frustrating-but I'm mostly just impressed that you shot an 82 that way.

[j_moo]

Sounds like how I was playing for years. Didn't hit many greens, but mostly not too far off so the up and downs were not too difficult, well half of the time.

I don't know about you, but it made me start just aiming for the center of the green and not the flag stick.

Heh, I'm the polar opposite. Long game 6, short game 16.

Yes. That's pretty much it exactly. I was 11 for 11 on up and downs for this round. I hit my irons fairly consistently on the yardages but I just miss left and right all day long. I also suffered two penalty strokes off the tee with my driver. I ended up playing my 3h off of most of the tees.

I've been scratching out mid/high-80's scores with the same predicament(s). Played the best round of my life 3 weeks ago followed by 7 ugly rounds. We'll see what happens this afternoon.

sounds close to my round yesterday...granted I hit 7 greens...but without my short game it would have been horrendous.

Have you had your clubs fitted by a professional club fitter? I did recently and it's made a big difference.

No. I have off-the-rack Top Flite irons from 1998. I actually started a thread a few weeks ago asking if fitting would help me with my accuracy and ball striking.

I know a guy that seems like he never hits a fairway or green, but still manages to carry a five handicap. He is a scramble machine.
