So title tells the short story.  Long story is my tee shots sucked and my putting was horrific.

I figure I had something close to 45 putts counting putts from just off the green as well as those actually on the green.  What a debacle....    greens were FAST.  I just never adjusted, kept blowing putts by by 10+ feet.

Was playing proV1s.

Other than putting I was hitting my driver thin and included a topped shot.   I have been having trouble getting my club to the ball with the longer clubs.  Not sure why, It's possible im doing a squat and coming out of it as i turn.  Any ideas what would be the most likely culprit for thins and tops?

First place I would look is leaning back & not getting your weight forward through impact.

      My Favorite Putts

      By DaveP043 ·

      I can't say that I remember a lot of individual putts, but I do have one specific memory.  The first time I played the Old Course, I had hit a pretty good drive on the 6th hole.  I had about 60 yards left, and due to the swale in front of the green, there was no chance of flying a wedge on or near the green and having it stop on the green.  My caddie recommended either a running 7-iron chip or a putt, and I took the putter and a pretty hard swing.  The ball rolled over humps and through hollows, disappeared into the swale in front of the green, and re-appeared heading right at the hole.  I ended up maybe 12 feet away.  The caddie turned and held out his hand to shake mine, and said "Now THAT was a golf shot!"

      For the first time since 2021, I made a 3 on the 12th at Stoneleigh.    395 yards, something like 80 feet uphill, I hit a solid drive and a 7-wood to inside a foot.  Even I couldn't miss that one.  I feel like I haven't played a lot of golf this year, but I'm making decent progress.
