What'd You Shoot Today?


Recommended Posts

Tale of 2 9's today. 48 on the front without a par or birdie. Then it started raining and shot a 38 on the back. Head scratching for sure.

70 yesterday with a couple missed short birdie putts. 67 today, only bogey was a 3-putt, missed one green. Hitting the driver really good.

Been on a good run the last month, lots of rounds under par.

Well, it wouldn't have been what I shot today,but yesterday. Shortly after noon on Sunday I recceived a call;; from my buudy's X=son. sorry, keyboard acting up and sometimes making no sense. Anyway, he said his Dad and he were going out to play 9 at a local course. I told them they had to be gut hooked and loony! We just had an inch and  a half of rain overnight@ ! The course would be a bog! But, the persistent bastard talked me into it! I agreed to meet them at the course  aty a particuzr time. About 29 minutes later, he called me back saying they decided not to go. On the drive home, everywhere they looked was standing water! Why would the course not be like that?

 I have played around 75 holes in the past few days.  15 of those were usuing only my 160 yard, or shorter clubs. I have averaged 4.62 strokes per hole. 

I lost a few strokes putting. A few of the greens were in pretty bad shape. Easy for the ball to be knocked off line during the roll. 

Made a few birdies, which were used up by the bogies. Most holes were for par. Had a few chip in, and one 20 yard pitch over a bunker that went in.

Gout out for the first time this year and shot a 91 in pretty tough conditions. Windy, chilly, wet, and less than ideal course conditions (putting was a joke). But February golf in the NE is good golf.

First round of the season for me here in chilly Chicago. Course was a little damp and windy but it overlooks Lake Michigan. Put together an 84 with couple of 3 putts. Avoided any doubles and no penalty strokes. All in all, I'm pretty pleased. Now the key is to try and get better this season.

I played nine holes yesterday. I did not record the score, but I am sure that if my short game had not been rusty and my mental game just a little sharper, it would have been a solid 35----LOL!!!!!

Seriously, I have a lot of work to do. I made 2 pars, no birdies. I have been working on my putting, but for the most part you couldn't tell it. I will say that the greens were unusually slow. I have been working on my driving and I did see some signs of improvement, but still a long way to go. My iron game was pretty sucky.

My drive on the first hole was decent, but after that I began losing to the right, although hitting pretty solidly. I do think I know at least part of the problem, so that is about the only good take away.

I did enjoy getting out though and the weather was nice.

Shot 79 today (+7) at Brookside #1, but was even par through five holes.  Gotta hit more fairways and greens to get my index low. My trend is now a 7.1. 


77 yesterday, but I was pretty disgusted with it. Started birdie, birdie, par, then 4 bogeys, finishing the front with 2 pars, for a 37. Back side...double, quad, (not sure where my head was at), then birdie, par, par, par, birdie, par, par, for a 40...I just can't explain what happened on those two holes. Just chunked or skulled every shot. I think it's called concentration, and I lost it, but got it back.

89 (63/107). 27.5 differential. 48 on the front, but closed with 41. I liked the way I battled back. Hit a 20ft putt on the last to hit the 89, and beat my 10th best differential of my last 20.

102 (-3 net) on Saturday and 97 (-6 net) on Sunday. Maybe I'll be able to get my handicap headed downward this spring...

79 - 40/39. First round since October 1st. Hit probably 20 balls before the round, first time I hit balls outside since Oct. 1 as well.

Was trying to break 80 and not make a fool of myself. Started off rocky - bogey, bogey, bogey, par, par, triple then finished the front birdie, birdie, par...Wasn't bad, pretty happy. Playing again on Wednesday.

97 (68.1/119). Pine Dunes in Frankston Texas. Cool course, I actually hit the ball well enough to shoot 90 or better. Unfortunately, I never got used to green speeds and had 7 3-putts. 7! On a good note I made my first ever eagle! 5 Iron, 175 yds, 4th hole, Par 4.

88! More pars than doubles, and no triples!

we are at the beginning of a week of “spring training,” which has nothing to do with baseball. We are in Arizona and plan to play at least one round every day, and possibly take in a pre-season game or two.

Had an absolutely horrendous weekend.  Shot 107 (net even) on Saturday, and 111 (net +5) on Sunday.  Both courses were more difficult than my usual tracks, but I just completely lost my swing.  Over 36 holes, I had 1 GIR, and only hit 3 fairways.  I couldn't even putt - I normally have 32-33 putts, and was at 40 on Sunday.  Just completely fell apart.  Don't know why the wheels fell off, but I need to get it together in the next two weeks so that I don't play like this in Palm Springs.

    • 26 Nov 24 -  It was not a record breaking round by any means, but rather a simple walking of the back nine today playing TBWB (two ball-worse ball) where the challenge is to play the worse of the two shots played - could be an errant drive from the woods, a tree knocked ball that is 100 yds farther back down the fairway, a nGIR ball as opposed to a GIR….the goal today was to stay no worse than bogie thru nine.  Managed to achieve that goal - bogied 7 holes with one dbl and one par to counter the dbl.  It’s about staying focused and not letting a bad shot or lie derail, but rather be an opportunity. 
    • Day 208 (26 Nov 24)- Opted to walk 9 today (was the back nine as they had a huge group going off the front) but instead of it being persimmons and blades, I had the regular gamers but made it a TBWB (two ball-worst ball) round.  This really challenges on several fronts - ball striking to be as consistent as possible, course management from non-optimal lies and keeping your head in it as it can be depressing to nail a shot on line-on target and the second rattles the trees right and it’s over 50 yards back and that’s the one you have to play.  The goal was to be no worse than bogie overall (+9).  Finished the round exactly on the number with some solid recoveries, no penalty strokes and only one 3-putt.
