So today I got off work extremely early and decided to get in a round before my mind told me it was too hot to play. Got to the course and it was wide open. I played a full 18 in 2 hours and 30 minutes (had to wait on one group for last 2 holes). Lately, when I'm on the golf course I feel like I am in the "Zone". Everything is just coming easy to me. Driver is Straight or just off line and far down the fairway, my new irons, MP-63 are so crisp and perform phenomenal, short game is great. I am gonna go ahead and praise Mizuno, for a sec, for making a fantastic set of irons in the mp-63. Workable with enough forgiveness to help out the bad shots, but they also make you realize when you make a bad swing or contact. I hit probably about 3 off the toe today and I only lost about maybe 5-7 yards, leaving me either, on the green still or with an easy chip. But back to that so-called "Zone", have any of you out there ever felt like there was nothing you could do wrong on the course???

Last 6 rounds have gone

73, 76, 79, 78, 80, 75

Considering I didn't play at all during the year when I was up at school, I am calling my short month and a half of golf a success!

 MP 001 9* Stiff shaft

 MP-63 3-PW DG S300

 Burner Rescue 18* Stiff

    • Dublin Coddle (Irish Sausage and Potato Stew is my guess. I would go with haggis, but that is Scottish.
    • These are the courses that I remember, but there may be others that I’m not remembering at the moment. I broke 100 atOakland Hills one time, but what I shot otherwise will be taken to the grave with me.    Country Club of the North - Several LPGA tournaments NCR Country Club South Course - 51st PGA, 41st US Women’s Open, 05 US Senior Open (attended) TPC Michigan - Ford Senior Players Championship Valhalla - 24, 14, 2000, and 96 PGA Championships, 11, and 04 Senior PGA Championships, 08 Ryder Cup Oakland Hills - 08 PGA Championship, 04 Ryder Cup, 96, 85, 61 and other US Opens TPC Sawgrass - The Players Championship  
    • Torrey Pines PGA West Stadium, and the two Jacks and the Palmer Rancho park Wilson/Harding (like Rancho LA Open way back in the day) Riviera (dozens of times in high school) Wilshire  Rancho Mirage Trump National Indian Wells
    • For me it was combo of good drama and total last man standing collapse... But it showed me once again that "ball rollback" is nonsense...when courses are set up to punish missed fairways and greens, that's where the quality golf (or total collapse) takes place...hurting the rest of us because a relatively few can bomb it 100 yards farther is idiotic...that Young bomb on 18 was gutsy... He misses the fairway with that he likely doesn't win, at least on that hole...
    • Followed by the longest drive on 18 in the shotlink era. That is a tough shot and he stood up there and did it. Fair play to him.
