8-flippin'-8. Lost 5 & 3 in the 2nd round of my club championship. Should have slow-played him because he was the damned fastest guy I've ever played with and I'm a fast player. Drove me crazy, but he's an elder statesman at the club and a great guy and I am a newbie, so I know my place. I just picked up the pace....but I think it cost me a few strokes. Still may not have beat him, but would have liked to have been more relaxed vs. racing to get done. Stuff happens.

Shot 43 last night....5 pars with three 3 putt double bogeys. Could almost consider one of them a 4 putt being it was from the fringe about 8 ft. away from the cup. Ridiculous! Play well tee to green and explode on the green!?
Still won my match 6-4....of course...the guy is scratch and giving me 7 strokes. (also ridiculous).

I shot another mediocre 41 on my league. I just could not take advantage of a few good drives. A lost ball on a Par 4 led to a 7.

85 yesterday. Couldn't putt to save my life. On the front 9, I had a birdie putt on 7 of the 9 holes and made 0. Back 9 was quite a bit sloppier.

shot a 44 on the front nine from the black tees at Hawks Landing. double, double, bogey, bogey, par, bogey, bogey, par, par.

i finally figured out how to stop my iron shots on the green. i just have to hit a fade. i didn't lose a lot of distance, and my irons were sticking.

i also putted like a madman. i drained a 25 footer for bogey on 4 (hit my first shot in the water and still bogeyed the hole) and lipped out two 30 foot birdie putts

Probably my best round in the last 6 years! Plus it was my b-day, nice gift. BTW, from 03 to 07, I was racing my Hondas (SCCA autocross) a lot more than I was golfing. I probably golfed 25 times thru those years. I've already played more than that this year.

I shot an 83, 40 on the front. I had 5 gir's on the front, that was with 2 drives in the fairway. . .so my scrambling was on. The putter is goooood. I was going to break 40 until the double bogey 5 on the last hole of the front, that sucked. I left myself a downhill slider and it slid--well.

Still my best in awhile. I hope its preview of things to come.

I went out and played 9 holes today with my son and shot 39 (+2). Almost holed out my approach shot on #4 which left me 2ft for bird to get back to par. I parred 5, birdied 6, then hit a horrible 3 iron OB off the tee on 7. Hit again into the fairway, then hit the green and sank for the putt for the best bogie of the day. Parred 8 to go onto the 9th tee at even, right up until I pushed my tee shot into the river, got on the green in 4 and then two putted for a nice smooth double.

The best part of the day, apart from playing golf with my son, was that I only had 14 putts for 9 holes.

Shot a 76 at the Par 3 course today. That tied my year's best at that course and beat my buddy for the 3rd straight time.

Had 42 to his 39 on the front 9 and then beat him by 5 strokes on the back 9 to win by 2.

Well I've been stuck in a rut for the last week (5 games) can't get lower than 87 and staying below 90, I guess you could call it consistant but I'd like to break 87. I'm working on my chipping/short game,thats whats killing me lately. Guess I'll see what score I'll get this afternoon.

Shot the easiest even par of my life on the front 9. Only 9 iron in on the last three par 4s (all around 400yd). 1 bogie, 1 birdie, only had to make one putt over 3 feet for par, rest were GIR putts or just on the fringe.

I shot 39-38 with one birdie on the 13th and went bogy bogy on 17 and 18. Not a good way to finish out but Im going through a swing change so I can accept things like that. Im also enjoying the game more rather than being so strict and hard on myself.

After my breakthrough 90 early this week and a 98 I finally broke 90 by shooting a 42-47 89 today!! I equaled my best at 31 putts although I three-putted 3 times. The great thing was that I was giving myself chances to get up and down left and right and successfully got up and down for par six times. I holed out some tough putts for par which was a great feeling.

Check out my round in Scorecard (gonna be buying a license soon, I think!)

    • Day 23: weird day, and only had a little bit of time. Just did mirror work again, working on where the elbow is in the downswing 
    • I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning. 
    • Day 443 - 2025-12-17 Made a few swings in testing some things out at another academy. Might pop up on someone else's podcast in a few weeks.
    • Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
    • Day 127 12-17 Backswing and flow practice. Took advantage of the 60 degeee weather(it was 20 degrees Sunday)
