What'd You Shoot Today?

Recommended Posts

Well i dont know if this will be my last 9 holes of the year or not.... the weather here in Michigan is kind of iffy..... monday i was suppose to go , and it was 37* outside lol..... the next day it was 70*  lol....... then tried to go Friday and the course had a heavy over night frost.. so dad and myself couldnt get 9 holes in... so we went today @ 11am..... and it was nice.... low 50's  course was wet.... which made everything a bit more challenging, since balls where pluggin on the fairways and rough...  

But i shot a 51, on the 9 holes we did play,,,, not great... not horrible.... lost 2 balls... so over all not a total loss.....

 

It is what it is

49 for nine in a chilly New Jersey this morning. I've been scoring in the mid to upper 40's for nine holes lately. Will be out there again tomorrow in the promised mid 60 temps. After voting, of course.

11/7 Shot my handicap on a water logged course. 5 pars, 6 bogies (+1) only one (1) triple..

No bounce or rollout. A couple drives appear to have backed up in the fairway. I found them a foot behind the pitch marks. Never thought this was possible with a driver. Anyway, last "official" round of the year for me. Too yucky and wet. 

Back to the instructor and the mats until March.

I played a new course today...I'm loving this November weather in Michigan..The Majestic Golf Course in Hartland, MI.   It is a very nice course, 27 holes with 18 holes ranging from 5860 to 7009 yds.  The golf carts had active GPS which was nice.

I didn't play bad but could have played better.   I made a few silly mistakes.

I hit 11 of 14 fairways.  I had 14 nGIR but only 4 GIR.  

I had two 3 putts but had 4 holes above bogey.

I shot an 89 with 6 pars.  

  More to come Wednesday or Thursday before we run out of good weather.

new member here.

shot a 105 saturday w 4 pars.  After starting to play regularly last year i was able to break a 100 by september 2015.  Since then, aside from some hiccups, I was consistently shooting in the high 90s and by august got to 93, 92, thought i was gonna break 90 then completely lost it.  Havent broke 100 since.

This was my first round trying out a tip i read in another thread from @iacas to narrow stance and bow feet out.  This helped a lot with my ball striking, greatly reduced and practically eliminated duffs.

a really, REALLY annoying 77 this past Saturday. A breezy 55 degrees on Long Island at Bergen Point (Par 71). What was so annoying was my nemesis shot only turned up on the Par 3's. A pull hook... showed up on every one except on 11. That was a straight push trying NOT to hit the pull hook. 7 over for the 4 Par 3's...

Possibly the last round of the year here in mid-Michigan.   Our group played the Coyote Preserve Golf Club.   If you haven't played this course, run, don't walk, to the first tee.   This course is fantastic.    It is everything you'd want in a course with challenges for every skill level.   This distances range from about 4900 for the women to about 6900 from the tips.    We played the white tees 69.2 / 132.    It was one of the more difficult courses I've played this year.  

I had 9 pars, hit 9 fairways but only one that was trouble.  I can't say I putted well but my Aimpoint has paid for itself many times over.    I still had three 3 putts but six 1 putts.

I 3-putted the first 2 holes, then also bogied #3...so 3 over after 3 holes...then aced #5! Finished with a 73 (1 over).

That's hole-in-one #11 for me...used a 6iron, hole was 164 yards.

45-42=87 (+17). Didn't play well, 3GIR, 12nGIR, need to convert more nGIRs to GIRs. Need to work on 60-120 yards, as I had 7 attempts and hit one green (5nGIR).

    • Went to a PING fitting day today. Going to be ordering a G430 Max 3w with a 75g x-stiff shaft at 5w length and a 3h. I forget what my fitter did with the shaft on that but she told me she’s going to email the club the specs of everything. The 3w combination we found pretty quickly. As for the hybrid, we tried a bunch of different head and shaft combinations for that distance with mixed results. Then she handed me the 3h and I took three swings with it and knew it was the one.
    • Yeah, this isn't sandbagging. It's outright cheating. He should be banned.
    • That’s quite a generalization. It’s clear that you don’t like water but there are plenty of us that drink it just fine. My daily intake is usually about 20oz of black coffee, 16oz of soda, 8oz of milk mixed into a protein shake, and anywhere between 30-60oz of water. It doesn’t even need to be cold and I kind of prefer it closer to room temperature than cold. I quite like the taste of tap water, with sole exception being the tap water at Magic Kingdom (it’s terrible). I can’t stand when people bring me tap water with a lemon wedge in it. I didn’t ask for lemon in my water.
    • This is the part I don’t get. He’s not even kind of sandbagging, he’s blatantly doing it and submitting scores that are verified to be incorrect. How he’s not banned from competition is beyond me.
    • He's right in what he's saying.I also have done this experiment with a golf shaft swinging with one arm at a time.one arm at a time is for me very fast but both hands together are very slow ..I got my 17 year old son to do this experiment and he swung very fast with either hand and he swung very fast with both hands together..My conclusion up to now is ; I'm not using my wrists properly but I not a 100 percent sure just yet..I will keep trying to fathom this out .I'm a 12 handicap and my son is 3.9 at Westlancs..
