- How do they score it if anyone other than the pro golfer hits a single putt? - Who caddied for Spieth today? - I don't see any drop zones on the holes over the pond. What is a player to do if they hit it in the water? - If I ever get to go to the Masters, do I need to watch the Par 3 Contest?

1. They don't.

2. ?

3. Why would they need a drop zone? They retee.

4. That would be up to you. Some people like "My kid is cuter than yours" competitions.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

1) To be eligible to actually win, you have to hole all your putts. 3) They reteed 4) Uh, yeah. Though I bet the course is a lot less crowded during it, if it's open

I didn't attend it - would walk the grounds more. I remember on Wednesday where it seemed like I was the last person on the course. Would stand at the 16th and imagine what happened here over the years and that the eyes of the country would be watching that coming Sunday.  Took tons of pictures.  Nobody told me to leave - must have been the last fan to leave the grounds as the sun was setting.

3. I thought every hole with a water hazard had a drop zone. 4. I love the snarky comment. I feel the same way when I get on Facebook.

    • First (12 holes) round in a year, maybe the third round in five years. After prioritizing family for a long time, I’m ready to play more golf. We moved back where I grew up and started playing golf. The course is close, but only six holes and pretty short, so the longest club I bring is a 4i. It is very undulated, with a lot of elevation changes and 4/6 greens are blind shots. The long game was relatively good (relative to my game and swing). Got things to work on, but the current state is manageable. One OB. Wedges and short game was atrocious. Chunking like I was making a garden. On the worst hole I chunked a 58° approach, then chunked three chips in a row… Time to search up some chipping topics and start practicing. I’ll take this over bad long game and good short game. The short game is easier to fix. Shot a net +17(!), gross +23, over 12 holes.
    • Day 118 - Spent some time working on the full swing. Need to film some swings for Evolvr tomorrow. 
    • playing with cleveland hybrid irons have friends that use hybrids anyone using hybrid irons or hybrids would appreciate fwwdback
    • I dont know if I really have a favorite, but there are two that have stuck in my mind for a very long time. #15 at Erie Golf course during the Finals of the EDGA Matchplay. Was up early and then lost a few holes in row so the match was close again. My opponent had a short putt for birdie. I hit past hole high, but 35 feet right. I drained the putt and looked over at my opponent who was in disbelief.   #8 at Whispering Woods during another year of the EDGA Matchplay. Was playing a very cocky opponent who made sure to mention on the first tee how many times he won the club championship at this course. I hammered this 30 footer that clanked off of the pin and dropped. My opponent was disgusted and that made me weirdly happy. I went on to win 5&3 or something like that, so that entire day has stayed in my memory. 
    • Day 20: Did 30 minutes after getting home from work, before kid's baseball practice. This session was piecing out the new hip move in transition, doing 2-3 rehearsals from the top, and then hitting a ball from between P5/P6. Did another 45 minutes after baseball practice and dinner. Did 30 more minutes of what I did earlier, and then about 15 minutes of full swings trying to incorporate athletically.
