Today I eagled the par-4 6th hole at my home course. That brings my cumulative round to -30 at Porter Valley CC. I've got three hole in ones and three par-4s to eagle left. I suppose you could say I still have to double eagle the par-5s too...

My best is +2 (+1 for 9 holes, so +2 for 18 to be fair).  I've never done better than 5 on the first or last, both par 4s, and only birdied one.

In the bag:
FT-iQ 10° driver, FT 21° neutral 3H
T-Zoid Forged 15° 3W, MX-23 4-PW
Harmonized 52° GW, Tom Watson 56° SW, X-Forged Vintage 60° LW
White Hot XG #1 Putter, 33"


My ringer score is -25 or a score of 47 (par 72 - rating 69.4/slope 120 - 6500 yards from the white tees).  I've birdied every hole on the course, eagled all 4 of the par 5 holes, eagled one par 4 and had 2 aces on par 3's.

Added another today. Eagled the par-4 5th to get to -32. 98y, baby 54* wedge. As I was watching it, I heard it knock the pin, but couldn't really tell how far up the pin it hit. Turns out it just nudged the pin as it headed to back lip of the hole. Left a gnarly explosion on the lip.

Dang, yeah, that'll be tough just to break -30. My course is relatively short. Lots of wedges and short irons in.

This year I've birdied 9/18 holes. The rest I've par'd.

In the last two years I've birdied 13/18 holes. The rest again par'd.

Never had an eagle.

Career Bests:

9 Holes--37 @ The Fairways at Arrowhead-Front(+2)

18 Holes--80 @ Carroll Meadows Golf Course(+9)

 

Home Course:

1) The Fairways at Arrowhead

2) Mayfair Country Club


I have a 15 under par 57 at my home course over 30 rounds of golf.  I have 4 holes yet to birdie with only 1 eagle. We play the course at 6750 yards.

My home course is a par72......rated 72.5cr 137slope 6564yds from the tees I play most often.  I also play the 75.1cr 141slope 7121yd Tips to a lesser extent.........

My ringer score is -29.  I've made eagle on 11 different holes......(4 par5's & 7 par4's)  I'm still waiting for my first home course ace!

What's in Paul's Bag:
- Callaway Big Bertha Alpha Driver
- Big Bertha Alpha 815 3-wood
- Callaway Razr Fit 5-wood
- Callaway Big Bertha 4-5 Rescue Clubs
-- Mizuno Mx-25 six iron-gap wedge
- Mizuno Mp-T4 56degree SW
- Mizuno Mp-T11 60degree SW
- Putter- Ping Cadence Ketsch


The beginning of this year I shot a 50-39 for a 89.


Well, I've moved so I think my home course cumulative record on my old course is now permanent.  Finally parred every hole and had birdies on two of them, so that's a cumulative two under.

In the bag:
FT-iQ 10° driver, FT 21° neutral 3H
T-Zoid Forged 15° 3W, MX-23 4-PW
Harmonized 52° GW, Tom Watson 56° SW, X-Forged Vintage 60° LW
White Hot XG #1 Putter, 33"


On my previous home course, I had a cum of 28 under par... Something I have always wanted but never scored is a duece on a true par five.  The double eagle is elusive and I doubt I will ever have one.  An ace on a par four seems more likely.

    • Not really, no. I don't know the history, what you've worked on, what you've tried and moved away from… etc.
    • Day 9: 2/16/25 Putting through 50 mm gates from 11”. Swing pressure shift drills.
    • Definitely not a favorite… For some reason my wife and I started watching Cobra Kai. I know the original was pretty cheesy, but the inability of these people to get over shit that happened like 30 years ago is astounding. And these kids would be arrested, but they don’t even seem to get suspended from school. Would Danny not notice that Johnny’s son looks like Johnny? Etc.? Why would a completely different dojo that has the same name be “banned”? Oy. Not sure we’ll make it to season 2.
    • Day 139 - 2025-02-16 Weather led to a rescheduled GEARS lesson, so I used the time to work on my swing for 60 minutes or so. All downswing stuff. Some swings at 93 MPH. Most around 75-80.
    • A question I have is…this swing (fade, pull cut) does not  feel as good and easily repeatable as the draw swing we were working on previously.  I’m kinda in a weird spot where I do not know which direction will be the best to pursue. I like seeing a penetrating 5 yard draw but also like the thought of the fade not getting away from me as much.    Any thoughts on that?
