shot my best 9 ever this evening. a 40 on my home course. only 13 putts!

played with 10 clubs - Driver, Hybrid, 5-PW, 56 and putter. a beautiful afternoon to walk by myself.

i'm finding i play my best when i'm alone. my tempo and routine are solid. just need to try and transfer that over to playing with other people.

Now just starting to get back into golf after a year of a bad back. I have changed my swing and gone to a long putter to help the back. Glad to say I had a 42 today with 2 triples. Getting there, just glad to be back on the links.

I shot 100. My worst score in over 3 years. It's my first time playing in a few weeks, but I didn't think it would be THAT bad. I don't feel bad about it, though, because I understand why the score was so high. Now I just need to put in some work to fix it. It was a strange round... Almost half pars and the other half triple bogeys. I did hit one shot absolutely Hogan pure. All I remember is that I wanted to feel my right arm extending down the target line and my right shoulder chasing after the ball down and through. After about 10 rehearsals, perfect execution. Completely striped like a laser and so pure. That was at least worth the 100. There were quite a few others down the middle, but that one stuck with me.

93 (49/44) on my home course. Again, another round after a 12 hour night shift for me. I never go into these rounds expecting too much as fatigue is inevitable but I find it weird that both last week and today had similar results - start off slow, make the turn on pace to hit 100 and somehow really turn it on during the back and make it respectable.

I really need to figure my driver out, it has deserted me the past couple of rounds. Slices keep occurring and I have never had to battle continuous slicing before. Hmmm.

94 (45/49). I found a lot of fairways and got a lot of up-n-downs, but my irons weren't there. I couldn't hit them straight or long, and I didn't hit a GIR all day, despite 4 good chances on par 4s alone.

79 (42/27) at a local course (115 slope / 70.0 rating). 11 fo 14 fairways, 8 of 18 greens, 34 putts. I find my game is drastically different on 110-115 slope courses than 120-135 (10-15 strokes).

87 (42/45) @ Whittle Springs. Course was a little wet, but a beautiful day to play. Putting was off a little, due the the greens having just been aerated. Pretty happy with my game overall.

51/47 for a 98... I only hit one good drive all day and even though it was in my shot cone, it turned out my cone's aim was about 5 yards too far left. I couldn't hit anything over a 6I all day though, and definitely couldn't putt worth a damn. My short irons saved me 15 strokes easily though.

46 for 9 holes. Pretty good, should have been a 44 but for a chunked shot and my inability to tap in on the last hole. Fortunately I rarely hit completely terrible shots any more, not sure where the chunk came from, it was a pretty run of the mill hybrid shot and just hit a foot short. The highlight of the round was three consecutive scrambling pars (even though one was only a scramble because I bladed a < 40 yard pitch over the green and had to save par), capped by a very nice sand save, if I do say so myself.

    • Its simple, YOU are responsible for reporting YOUR score correctly, at every level of golf.  Do you imagine a top pro would really trust anyone else with his score? Without getting too far from the original post, the Rules have been revised every 4 years for decades.  They're continually evaluated, and most changes are in response to changes within the game.  BTW, if wind blows your ball off the green before you've lifted and replaced it, you play from wherever it ends up.  The TV call ins weren't a rule of golf issue, they were a PGA Tour issue, all in an effort to get the call right.  
    • Someone asked what I propose. I think if the bunker is full of rainwater, you get to drop it with no penalty directly in back of the bunker, so you still have a tricky shot of chipping over the bunker. People are talking about local committees and such which we just don’t have at our level. My league and playing partners gave the free drop with no issue. My original purpose of this post was just to understand what the “real” rule is, and I now know. But now I also want to encourage people to see that many long time golf rules are outdated and illogical, and hopefully encourage people to push for change. They made some changes in the last few years, so I’m hopeful the game I love will improve if enough people speak out. A lot to hope for posting in a little forum I know, but you have to start somewhere.
    • You get a penalty stroke because your local committee didn't do their job, they didn't address the specific conditions using the tools available to them within the Rules.  The rulemakers contemplated just this situation, bunkers being so filled with Temporary Water that they're unplayable.  The only way to address it "fairly" is to allow free relief outside the bunker, and they do NOT want to allow that on an everyday basis.  So they write the rules as it is, and allow the Committee to override the normal rule in the rare instance where the bunker really is full.  That's what your "local league" does, they invoke Model Local Rule F-16, which treats flooded bunkers as both GUR and as General Area.  Relief from GUR in the General Area allows relief in the General Area (i.e. outside the re-defined bunker).  Its quite a logical way to approach a relatively rare situation. Separately, consider your concern about temporary Water in the fairway.  I've seen situations in relatively level fairways where the Nearest Point of Complete Relief  from Temporary Water is 30 or 40 yards away, further from the green, even in the rough.   
    • There you go, @yungbuck6. Your hips aren’t really shifted forward and your head tips back. The camera angle isn’t good so what looks like hip slide could actually just be extension towards the ball.
    • But there's more to weight shift than just where you finish. How your weight transfers throughout the swing matters too.  But you're saying you can see it better than a device that can measure it? Got it.  Yeah I'm good here, good luck to whoever tries to coach you.
