Shot a 43 today, best 9 I've played. This is the first two months of playing golf seriously in my life so I am very pleased. It wasnt easy I made a lot of 10 foot putts and one was from the fringe (lucky) but hey I'll take that. My problem areas are my pitch shots within 75 yards and chipping. Other than that, I think my game is looking pretty good!

congrats...you will likely shoot more personal bests going forward but don't be disappointed if it doesn't happen every time out.  Just take it one shot at a time...

43 in two months, congrats! I've been playing 14 years and I'm happy to get a 43 for 9-holes. And you know what, my short game is usually my problem too. I've been keeping detailed stats of my game and I found that I'm hitting an average of 50 out of 89 strokes within 50 yards (including putts) per round. I want to go see an instructor soon, but I want to focus on improving my short game, cause that has to be my best opportunity for improvement.

Fersman, I agree. My chipping is weak. I'm actually pretty solid with my putter, my speed today and lines were spot on. If I can't take a full swing on my approach shots I'm also pretty weak in that aspect. If I could sure those things up I could essentially cut 5 strokes or so off my rounds.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By GolfLug · Posted

      I mean there has to be some thought. For eg., something like 'soft knees and wrists' at set up and maybe a dynamic 'left arm to chin' as a trigger to start DS. I have these one or two anchor thoughts and have served me well. In fact, my wildest swings are the one where I have no thoughts or if I forget to walk thru my anchor thoughts. In contrast my best rounds are where I am consistent with the anchor thoughts.    OTOH, if I am running my entire half hour lesson (hypothetical) with some pro that I had last Saturday or whatever before every swing then I'm probably in trouble before I even get over the ball.

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      By iacas · Posted

      Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By iacas · Posted

      No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.

      Too Old?

      By RetiredOldMan · Posted

      StuM,  I have, in the past, added a left handed club. (Ususally a 7 iron) However, I usually take a stroke penalty and move the ball to where I want it.  I play for fun and in a pinch can use theback side if my club if I don't want the penalty stroke.    RetiredOldMan,  Terry
