What'd You Shoot Today?

40 + 46: 86

Firestone West course

Shot a 44. Mix of too many bad with too little good shots. Short game failed me today. The punch shot game was solid.

Played (alone) today, a new-to-me course.  Literally alone, no one else in the group.  I shot an 81.  I'll get the data up to ShotScope tomorrow.  I feel I putted well.  No penalties, only one six (bogey on the opening hole, a par-5) and only one double bogey (par-3 14th;  hit a baked bunker after a really poor tee shot, hit out to basically nowhere, three putts).  17 GIRP.

Shot a 40 today. Just focusing on priority stuff. Took me like 4 holes to remember I can bring my arms down in the swing. 🤣

Been playing well lately (sad season here in colorado is almost over).

 

Last 3 rounds have been: -1,  even and -1 again.

 A late season grip change has been my most important for this improvement (my trail hand grip become too strong over time and was hooking everything)

Played 2 different courses on The St Lawrence River last few days shot a 41 on Friday and a 39 yesterday.  

Been playing Volvek balls lately at 82 yrs old it's really helped distance off the tee Friday averaged 217 and yesterday 226.

Thrill of the day : couple of long putts a 42 footer for a Bird and a 28 footer to save par .Love Fall golf along the St Larry

39, +4.

A bit better hip slide stuff. More lateral, less turn with the hips.

47 + 47 for a 94

either hit some amazing shots or just terrible. Couldn’t get driver like 60ft off the ground 🤣. I stubbornly just kept hitting driver. You know, I wanted to hit a good one. I had like 7 shots enter a hazard. I hit some of the best iron shots in a long time. Just a strange day.

48+47 for a 95.  I can only blame so much on the greens being aerated, although that was part of it.  My driving was fantastic (one poor drive, but several fantastic drives).  My approach shots were a blend -- I think I picked good targets, but I hit six different bunkers;  two of the shots I left in the bunker, plus another I hit out into water.   So I guess my approach can't be described as great with that outcome (the hitting into sand).  I can only blame so much on some of the bunkers not having sand in them.   I can't really remember when, prior to today, I hit more than two bunkers in a round.   For what it's worth, three of the approach shots into bunkers were the result of hitting far past where I thought my approach was going to go (I thought those bunkers weren't in my expected result due to being too far from where I was hitting).   

I'll go back to the course next week when the greens are back, and hopefully I avoid the sand this time.

Played East Lake and show 92 from the members tees. 51 on the front nine and 41 on the back. Wish I could go back and play the front again to fix my score.

Today was a good day. Shot my best score yet however I managed to fumble and fail my goal of breaking 80.

Conditions were very wet and sloppy with very soft, soggy, mushy ground. Most balls plugged or only ended up a few feet past where there they landed because the ground was so soft and wet. However, something clicked today.
Broke my previous record of 84 and shot an 80 today. I also had 3 putts stop 1 inch short of the hole which was pretty frustrating since all I needed was 1 stroke to break 80 today haha. Oh well, I am extremely happy and had a blast!

Context:  while I have been practicing when I can, I have missed enough days that I'm not recording it for the "5 minutes daily challenge" until I believe I have the time to practice daily again.

Played Navy, from the white tees  (71.1/125/6463).  Shot an 86;  as I type this, my trend index is 14.5, so that's a good score for now.

Can you tell I've practiced primarily full swing?  SG in the three areas other than putting all beat the 5-handicap mark today.  I don't recall the last time I had such a great outing.  10 GIR helps, with three additional "hit the green on a full shot after having to play positionally on a previous one."  And on two of the near-GIR, I chipped one to about 10' and another to 4', which probably helped SG:SG score quite a bit (as did having so few short game shots).  18 GIRPs.

And yes, I know what I've been neglecting in practice   Don't worry, I know what I need to do... I just need to do that.
