So, we notched our first win of the season against our neighbors over the border, Stafford High. It was a chilling New England day with temperature rarely breaking 50 and a slight on and off drizzle, so scoring conditions were not at a peak. We played at Quaboag Country Club in Monson, which is an interesting course to say the least. Extremely tight fairways and the course was put together like a roller coaster. I can't think of a single easy shot that I had today. I really had the feel for the greens, but nothing was dropping. Lip outs, pop outs, short, long, everything was close, but no in. I struggled off the tee and really just couldn't put anything together today and finished with a 44. Poor round, but Stafford was bad enough for us to take the win.

Tomorrow, we face the best team in the conference in Suffield High School at Crestview Country Club, so it'll be an interesting day.

Till then.

Congratulations! I took a look at the course website, there weren't many pictures and a scorecard wasn't posted. It's only 9 holes huh? Is that all you guys play all the time?

Yup, with school not getting out until 2:15, we only play nine. The only time we'll play eighteen is for the conference tournament and other state tourneys...

      Feel like you are left side dominant. Keep the back of your glove running through impact. Keeps leading edge down without digging. You will pick them clean with some zip if the grass is nice and generally acceptable results off anything less than ideal. Works with both hingy or dead hand pitches and chips.

      Day 52 (30 Apr 26) - Had planned a solo round, got invited to be part of trio that included a fmr mini tour pro.  Was fun playing back a set of tees and having to stay in my game plan. Both were very engaging and encouraging in the round.  A good day in working through and making smarter shot choices.

      Determining Out of Bounds

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I mean, a golfer is trespassing and damaging property. So, golf rules don’t supersede state laws. 😉 Like, if it isn’t marked and is off golf property. The right thing to do is take an unplayable lie or take stroke and distance.  Also, this is a liability for the course. The homeowner could easily say the course is liable for damage done because they knowingly didn't mark their boundaries which allowed golfers to trespass and damage property.

      Interestingly enough, if the course (the Committee in Rules terms) doesn't mark the boundaries, there is nothing out of bounds.  I realize that neighboring homeowners would take a dim view of golfers whacking balls from their backyards, but that's what the Definition of Out of Bounds requires. "All areas outside the boundary edge of the course as defined by the Committee."
