I play on a short 9 hole course with these distances per hole:  150, 135, 395, 175, 350, 248, 220, 198, 320.  Being that my best drives are about 230 and I average more like 210, this course really fits me as I can reach all the holes in regulation.  It's fun to play there for me.

wow that is short!, my go-to course is a 3009 (soon to be 3100) yard, par 35 9 hole course with a 554 yard Par 5 uphill!

Yeah, but that his is probably a par 30 or 31 executive, depending on whether they call the 248 a par 3 or 4. Yours is a full-length 9.

Yes it should be a 30 or 31, but they call it a 32 (the 220 is a par 4!!).  It's USGA rating is 30.5/94.

Curious; which course is this?

I lived 19 years in SD and I think I know where you're talking about.

Guess #1 - Mission Bay

Guess #2 - Steel Canyon

Guess #3 - Sail Ho (Pt. Loma) - if they adjusted the layout since 2009.

Gambling is illegal at Bushwood sir, and I never slice.

Balboa Park Golf Course - 9 hole

They have an 18 hole course too.

!! indeed. Par 4s shouldn't be driveable with a 5 wood, haha.

There is one like that at another (bit longer) 9 holer near me. It's listed at Par 4, 240 yards, but with some tee placements, it plays like 215 and it's about 10 yards downhill. I once hit two balls onto the green with 3 wood (before I found learned better distance) and birdied both on two putts. Haven't played there since; gotta leave on a high note!

Of course.

I thought more about this and realized Sail Ho was wrong, and those other two actually had 18 holes. Balboa, both tracks were always nice.

      Day 120 - Played 18; much better than yesterday. Miss right now is off the heel of the club, so I need to sort that out.

      Today we played Pease Golf Course in Portsmouth, NH. Course was in great shape but my game didn't show up. I will say I pitched and chipped fairly well but almost everything else was very hit or miss. Cost myself a lot hitting an in play drive with pulling my approach shots maybe 85% of the time. Finally figured out I had been swaying most of the round. Only took me until 13 to figure it out. Used what felt like a much more centered turn and the ballstriking improved. 18 tomorrow using a 2 man scramble format. Just looking to contribute. Been a blast though.

      Day 22: Hit balls with 7-iron using mevo+ to track dispersion. Was out for a long time after work; 86 balls but the first 50+ were 50% swings focusing on top of backswing feel and then just hitting the ball as a psychic reward. Finished with 20 balls close to full speed. Pretty happy with dispersion and also no horrendous misses. I’m chunking my priority piece out into two separate feels, first and more important is the position/balance at top of backswing which is what I was working on. Once I have that engrained I’ll move to transition part.

      New Maxfli Tour and Tours Balls?

      By iacas ·

      FWIW I never really had issues with the previous generation of Snells. But… I'm not sure I played them a ton, either.

      New Maxfli Tour and Tours Balls?

      By pganapathy ·

      I know Dean Snell designed the original Pro V along with a couple of other brands tour balls.  How exactly does the Snell ball have problems.  Did he change something in the design or is a manufacturing error since he cannot afford the unlimited R&D budgets of the big manufacturers to iron out flaws
