My first even par round.  Sub-par in 2014......

Don't you love how the mainstream cliche "sub-par" is used as a negative?

--------------------------------------------------------

My favorite moment this year had to be winning my first tournament.  A great feeling.  A lot of other random little things, a good shot here, a good round there, but nothing really stands out.  My soft (because I'm probably more than a year away from any of these) goals are shooting par, shooting under par and breaking 70.

For now, just want to keep improving and competing. :)

I nominate this moment as the best of the sandtrapper's 2013 moments ... by far.

I'll second that.

TPC Sawgrass, playing a round of golf with my dad, walking around from hole 16 to 17, standing near where the pro's hit their tee shots to that island green.

I have two best moments:

1) Shot a 68 (Par 72) in my next to last tournament of the year. Unfortunately that put me in the championship flight and wasn't good enough to be in the money. Still though, I was thrilled with my round.

2) In our annual 2-day "Ryder Cup" type tournament against the other local club, I pulled a major upset the first day against the other club's #2 player and followed it up by winning the deciding match the second day to win the tournament for our team.

Even better was that these two moments were on back-to-back weekends. I was playing good golf at the end of the season.

I finally broke 90 a couple of months ago while playing front to back 18 at Bayou Din in Beaumont, Tx. My wife and me were playing with another couple and my game was just different that day. I beat my previous best by 7 strokes! I also hit the longest drive of my life by driving onto the back of the green on Hole 15 during the same round. The card shows 366 yards to the center of the green off of the white tee, so I'm guessing about 370 yards.

What sucks is that I've totally fallen apart since that round and haven't even broke 100. With the weather deteriorating this time of the year, I can't play as often so i'll get it back next spring, hopefully.

    • Went to a PING fitting day today. Going to be ordering a G430 Max 3w with a 75g x-stiff shaft at 5w length and a 3h. I forget what my fitter did with the shaft on that but she told me she’s going to email the club the specs of everything. The 3w combination we found pretty quickly. As for the hybrid, we tried a bunch of different head and shaft combinations for that distance with mixed results. Then she handed me the 3h and I took three swings with it and knew it was the one.
    • Yeah, this isn't sandbagging. It's outright cheating. He should be banned.
    • That’s quite a generalization. It’s clear that you don’t like water but there are plenty of us that drink it just fine. My daily intake is usually about 20oz of black coffee, 16oz of soda, 8oz of milk mixed into a protein shake, and anywhere between 30-60oz of water. It doesn’t even need to be cold and I kind of prefer it closer to room temperature than cold. I quite like the taste of tap water, with sole exception being the tap water at Magic Kingdom (it’s terrible). I can’t stand when people bring me tap water with a lemon wedge in it. I didn’t ask for lemon in my water.
    • This is the part I don’t get. He’s not even kind of sandbagging, he’s blatantly doing it and submitting scores that are verified to be incorrect. How he’s not banned from competition is beyond me.
    • He's right in what he's saying.I also have done this experiment with a golf shaft swinging with one arm at a time.one arm at a time is for me very fast but both hands together are very slow ..I got my 17 year old son to do this experiment and he swung very fast with either hand and he swung very fast with both hands together..My conclusion up to now is ; I'm not using my wrists properly but I not a 100 percent sure just yet..I will keep trying to fathom this out .I'm a 12 handicap and my son is 3.9 at Westlancs..
