What'd You Shoot Today?

I went back to Palmetto golf course yesterday, shot a 103, 2 stroke improvement on the same course.  I am really happy about that. My drives were descent but on the last few holes I just started slicing it and couldn't figure out why.  I finally got a par on a par 3 and had 2 GIR which I am super excited about.

(Actually on Monday . . . )

Shot my best ever 18 hole round - 86. 44 on the front 42 on the back. Lots of pars, no birdies dropped, too many doubles and a triple (with an OB). Course was Pecan Hollow Golf Course in Plano, TX ("Player's" tees at 68.9/118). I haven't really played since the end of August (and not well then), so I was very pleased.

(Monday, too)

Tried to fiddle with some things on the course (good idea it was not) and started the round with double bogey, quadruple bogey (is that even a thing - 9 on a par 5), another quadruple bogey (8 on a par 4), bogey'd a par 3, and put up another 9 on a par 5.  Suffice to say, starting the round by scoring 15 over par on the first 5 holes was not what I envisioned.

Shot a 22 over par on the front 9 (58 on a par 36).

Decided to just do what had been working for me on the back nine and got 2 pars, 3 bogeys, 3 double bogeys, and a 1 triple bogey for a 12 over par.

For me, shooting under 50 (48 on par 36) on the back felt great.  I'm sure a lot of people here wouldn't feel so great about throwing up that kind of number on the back 9 but I was very pleased at my recovery.

My goal right now.is to try and consistently shoot under 100 so anytime I put up a 50 or less on the front or back, I'm happy.

So, overall, shot a 106 on a par 72 wasn't terrible (for me, anyway).

I won't even go into the course details, but suffice it to say I shot 88 yesterday.  25 mph winds......gusts higher, but that's really no excuse.  Just a mess of a day.

Gonna get back on the horse today before going away for the weekend.  Gotta get the taste of yesterday's round out of my mouth!

Miami Springs CR 69.6/116 - 113

Most disappointing 113 I could shoot! (Normally, I'd be satisfied with that score)  65-48, 38 putts. Went off the back 9 first, as a single. Passed a couple of groups, and then the rain started. I should have stopped playing, but I pushed on. The three 'rain holes' I had were 9, 10, 8. Everything else was 7 or under, including a birdie on the last :banana: It was a LONG birdie putt, too. probably 25 feet. And I KNEW I was gonna make it, too. Funny how that works!

Still looking for that sub-100 round. I know it's in me somewhere. And it's close!

Score aside, I was striking my irons better than ever, and the driver wasn't awful.

The 48 on the back, and the long bird on the last really were nice to end it.

88 at home, not interesting.

What was interesting was one of the guys in the group made a hole in one, his first in 40 years of trying. I didn't get to see it in person as he was playing in the foursome ahead of mine but it was a really fun time celebrating his achievement.

Three birdies and seven bogies for a four over par 75. About what I deserved with the bad approach shots I was hitting but it would have been nice if a few of the long birdie putts would have gone in the hole instead of lipping out. Oh well, I should have hit them closer.

I hit a 337 yard drive today. Followed by by a driver , 4w ,9i and sand wedge just to get to the green on a 381 yard par 4 two holes later. The wind was brutal. I feel fortunate to have kept it to 45 strokes. Just couldn't figure out the wind. Half the time it had no influence and some shots practically went straight up before getting blown down.

Shot a 114 Saturday. Back nine couldn't hit a ball of the tee to save my life. Either chunked the ball or hit it thin. It helped me have five penalty strokes after having none on the front nine. The only thing that felt good consistently was my short iron and wedge full swings. An absolutely abysmal day otherwise. Back at it tomorrow/Sunday.

With back to back double boggies on the front nine, and a triple bogey, bogey to start the back nine. 4 birdies 8 pars today pretty good day of golf. In the past two weeks I've shot a 77, 92, 76. My games really came along since I started playing last month.

Rutgers today, shot 96. Great weather for November. Had a few consistency problems with my long game, but that's in transition, so I expected it.

Short game was solid today. I think I only made one or two mistakes and even managed to hit six shots inside 4' (one was out of a bunker). I only made three of those putts, though (I made the sandy), so needless to say, had a fairly poor putting day.

Five fairways hit, one GIR, nine errant tee shots that cost me strokes. Definitely felt like I could have made more of the round, but I don't play often enough to shake off the rust. I'll take the 96.

Played Western Turnpike Blue to Red (6,026 yards, CR: 70; Slope 127).

Put up a dreadful 118 today.

Found a way to hit my driver well (for me) and my long and short iron play wasn't too bad.

But my pitching, chipping, and putting today - absolutely dreadful.

Shot 101 yesterday at Knoxville municiple. That's an improvement from 108 my last round. Still fighting inconsistent ball striking and slicing the driver. But I blew a lot of strokes with pitching. Shanked a few and that hurt. Big addition is my RBZ Stage 2 Hybrid 3. It's super easy to hit off the deck. Big help on par 5s and after I've screwed the driver off the tee

Its a month since my last game.I was as rusty as hell.only 1 fairway hit all day and only 4 g.i.r.

my iron play got me out of a lot of trouble.I somehow managed to get through 17 holes without a double bogey,then I finished with a triple.I

I finished 3 over my handicap,but it felt much worse.

    • 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.
