Tonight I played for an hour or two until it got dark

I just jotted down the holes from memory

2 Par 3s
4 Par 4s
2 Par 5s

I was +3 after playing these 8 holes . My 3 bogeys were each 3-putts

I think if I start playing with a decent ball and work more on my putting I'll be at scratch in no time

I think very few people are going to believe you, Git, and this kind of thread strikes me as baiting the hook. I hope it's not.

I don't understand what's so unbelievable about it. I mean, 3 3 putts in 8 holes sucks. I'm happy cause I just started golfing and know how much my score can improve if I putt better, etc. but i don't see what's so hard to believe??

Why don't you write your scores on a score card and put the scan of it online if your scores are so great? Even if you don't have a scanner at home I'm sure a public library has one these days.

Show us the amazing scores you get. And no pencil-whipping. As Confucius say, 8 become 4 when kept in head. Or something like that.

I shot an 18 playing a full round today. Yep, back to back holes in one. On every hole. The only club I took with me was an old Pro Staff 1 iron too. Prolly could've putted with it, but I never needed to. It was awesome.

The bottom line is, it doesn't matter if you're telling the truth. You came on here with probably the tallest tale of a goal that there is in the sport of golf. Now you're following it up with half-rounds of unsubstantiated, partially-recalled proof that you're right on track. You don't need our support or acknowledgement to reach your goal. You're either here for advice, which I don't see you seeking, or you're here to PROVE it, which would require video of your swing/round/shots - anyone can forge a scorecard or tell tales.

Nothing in the swing is done at the expense of balance.

Why in the name of Bobby Jones would any of us care enough to pay for your round and board you? You don't get it. We don't care about your handicap. We care that you continue to come in here and throw around completely unsubstantiated evidence that you are achieving a hallowed milestone like it's no big deal. At this point, we don't want you to prove your index, we just want you to stop talking about it period.

      Determining Out of Bounds

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I mean, a golfer is trespassing and damaging property. So, golf rules don’t supersede state laws. 😉 Like, if it isn’t marked and is off golf property. The right thing to do is take an unplayable lie or take stroke and distance.  Also, this is a liability for the course. The homeowner could easily say the course is liable for damage done because they knowingly didn't mark their boundaries which allowed golfers to trespass and damage property.

      Determining Out of Bounds

      By DaveP043 · Posted

      Interestingly enough, if the course (the Committee in Rules terms) doesn't mark the boundaries, there is nothing out of bounds.  I realize that neighboring homeowners would take a dim view of golfers whacking balls from their backyards, but that's what the Definition of Out of Bounds requires. "All areas outside the boundary edge of the course as defined by the Committee."

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      I had two events the past two days. Yesterday I was playing a course blind. Hit it solid. Hit 9/14 fairways, 12/18 greens, 34 putts. Many of those putts were the result of balls that were close-ish to the hole when they landed, but wound up a long way away once they'd finished rolling (backwards mainly). Then today, hit 11/13 fairways, 11/18 greens, 37 putts, and shot 80. 8 over par and it wasn't particularly pretty. My big problem today was my pitching. I was inside 100 yards of the hole and off the green on 9 occasions.  1st - drive to about 75 yards, fanned a 58 degree short and right. On the green, but a good 40 feet away and good two putt from there (so took 3) 2nd - laid up to a bunker and it's narrow past it, so had 165 in, missed it right with an 8 iron. Wet rough, chip from about 5 yards off the green and the club snagged. It got on the green, but only temporarily. Overcorrected a bit on the next one and hit it a bit firm and it rolled out to about 35 feet. Putt didn't break and it ran on a bit and I missed the one back (greens were fast and a little bumpy, which didn't help, but doesn't excuse either). (took 5 to get down from close to the green) 4th - had about 95 from the right rough, hit it on the green and two putts (3) 5th - 90 from the fairway, tugged it and it got a firm bounce, chipped on and hit what I thought was a decent chip, but it ran out down the hill and two putts from 20 feet (4) 7th - 65 from the fairway, significant upslope and hit it a bit hard, ran long left against the collar. Tried to blade a PW, but it got under a bit so didn't advance it anything like far enough. Made a good two putt from there (4) 11th - 63 from the fairway, hit a squirrelly pitch on the green and two putts (3) 12th - 75 from the semi-rough, caught it a bit clean and it wound up on the back edge. Putting down a tier and it ran 8 feet past (that was actually a really good putt and couldn't have done any better I don't think) and missed that (4) 13th - 55 from the fairway, overcorrected and hit the big ball before the small ball. Then made a stellar up and down from 25 yards short to an elevated green with a putter (3) 15th - down in three from a greenside bunker (3) That was it. The other 9 holes I hit it on the green from outside 100 yards. So on those 9 occasions, I took 32 shots to get in the hole. 3.56 average. Terrible. Reason I'm posting this in here is to see if anyone has any suggestions for how to work on my contact with pitch shots. I don't have access to a grass range. Only mats and it's easy off a mat. Partly I think my problem is I've hit it off mats so much this winter that I've lost my judgement on where the ball is versus the ground because of the leeway granted. Open to ideas. I also suspect that under pressure I stand a bit closer to it and then get steep and hit down on it and it puts me in a bad place, but I can't seem to get myself to not do that.
