What'd You Shoot Today?

I shot a 42 today and was Ecstatic!! Of course my handicap is much higher than yours.
Best of the day was 5 G.I.R.! 1 triple, a double and a single bogey, all the rest pars.

Got through 12 holes today. played the best 5 hole string ever for me[holes 1-5, too!]. par, par, birdie, par, birdie. so, -2 after 5 and then the wheels kinda fell off. went bogey, par, bogey, double to finish the front at +2, 39 [par 37]. then went double on 10, birdie on 11, bogey on 12...... 3 birdies in a round [much less 12 holes] is a new record, or ties my best at least, I just need to limit the stupid mistakes!

My course has trees, plenty old big trees and narrow fairways. Looking around a golf shop I found an old second hand #1 iron, I think was about $2. Decided to try this. Brought my handicap down 6 shots to a 10 within a few months. To answer the question;my best shot, the low #1 iron that keeps climbing until it is out of sight. I still cannot hit a driver!

I didn't keep score but I would guess it was around an 85 on my home course. I was horrible of the tee, had great iron play, great chipping, and half-decent putting.

Shot 84 with a couple of 3 putts . I couldn't hit my irons at all today. But I was driving the ball pretty solid so had alot of chances at the greens.

They say golf is like life, but don't believe them. Golf is more complicated than that.

Yesterday was my first round since I had surgery to remove a piece of infected bone from my tibia on September 8. I've never been happier shooting 61-62, not bad for me (I'm about a 25-30 handicap) considering I hadn't played in a month, and hadn't even started to walk without crutches less than a week before. I'm probably only going to get to play a few more times before the New England weather shuts down our courses, but I was ecstatic to be back out on a golf course again.

Played 9 holes and did well for my handicap. 6 pars and three bad holes to card a 43. I was 1 over the card after 6 holes just having strung 4 pars together which is my best stretch to date. Tried to play it safe on the short par 4 7th and made a disastrous stroke off the tee which put a series of big scratches in the crown of my 3W Then proceeded to make a series of bad decisions to card a quad bogey. Doubled 8 after blowing a good tee shot and finished with par on 9 after leaving my birdie putt 3 inches short.

I was a bit disappointed that I let the 7th get away from me but on the whole the consistency of my round was very encouraging. Hopefully I can take that form into my club matchplay semi-final next week!

40, five pars and four bogeys, 71% fairways, 33% GIR, 16 putts. Irons were all over and I spent quite a lot of time on the beach.

+3 on nine. Putting started off rough, striking was great. Finished the last 6 holes at -1 with a couple of tap-ins for birds. Found every fairway and 8/9 greens.

39, 3 bogies, 6 pars
16 putts
3/7 gir (misses weren't bad, besides one)
4/9 GIR (2 fringes, so ballstriking was pretty solid for me)
2/5 u/d


Game is feeling pretty good. Ballstriking has gotten better, which has led to increased distances. need to work on getting up and down and making some of those 12-15 foot birdie putts.

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