Funny one!

It's a bad day at golf, when.... You run out of balls by the turn, and have to buy a $20 per sleeve balls at the pro shop.

I thought it was going to be a really bad day when I was waiting to tee off on #1 and my left shoulder popped out while I was taking practice swings.

I popped it back in, and it actually turned out to be one of the best rounds I ever had at that time because I was swinging really easy and crushing the ball.

When it's super sunny and you didn't get a tan [always under trees for those who don't get it]

I think I'm with Turtle on this one! Although it could be a bad golf day when you bring home more bug bites from the tall stuff than balls in the bag.

when you realize you have forgotten your wedge on the last hole but youve been chipping so bad that you really dont care to go back and get it.

- Your hitting 5 off the first tee even though you were aiming towards another fairway to avoid the O/B on the first 2 tee shots.

- You aim left expecting a fade but hit a draw. You then aim right and hit the fade.

You are lying 7 on a par three hole going over a pond and you have not even left the drop zone yet.

Happened to me 4 times Sunday morning because I'm hard headed. Broken index finger has completely changed my swing, I haven't even pulled my driver/3w out of the bag the last two rounds, I've played my hybrid 4 from the tee because it's the most distance I can hit straight right now. Every day has been a "bad day" recently but it's better than not being out at all.

- Starting the round with a bogie/double/triple

- Paired up with a NASCAR fan (That's what I call loud-mouth golfers who wear jeans/t-shirts and have no clue about golf rules/etiquette)

- Forgetting something at home that you were stoked that you had ready to bring with you (snacks/beverage/towel/sleeve of balls/new golf glove/etc)

only two?

I generally buy a dozen and have to bum one or two off my buddies before the round is over.

Your wife has already called you three times, and you're only on the second hole.

    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on. 
    • I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
    • Day 128 12-18 Worked on rotation and getting to lead side. Still working on the flow feeling while doing that. Recorded swings. 
    • IMO-the only thing entertaining was the relay race. Everything else was excruciatingly boring...or just  stupid, like the 14-club thing. Watching guys blade wedges into the water over and over is not at all interesting.
