What'd You Shoot Today?


Recommended Posts

Shot an 87... best score ever and first time breaking 90!!! I was so excited and I didn't even get a birdie, haha... definitely could have done even better though, 3 chipped on a par 4 and my drive landed 25 yards before the green (grrr... I was in the process of playing through a group) and then also +3'd a par 3 (again, while in the process of playing through a group)... hit 8 fairways/greens which was better than normal (I know it's not that good), and had 36 putts (also a personal record).

Despite the poor play while trying to pass some groups, I'm very happy with my score. I would like to play a round where I can keep consistent pace though, that would probably help me a bit. ;)

And yes, first post here!!! :)

38 on the back last night for league. Could not putt. 3 putted for par on the first hole. Only made one 1 putt all night. Couple of bad shots but not many.
Won my match 6-4.....can't believe I'm giving up 2 or more strokes.....


Shot my best score of the year, and it was on a harder course then I've been playing this year (last year's and next year's home course actually) and only my second time playing there this year. Shot a 77 (par 72).

Now the sad part...I finished triple, double! :( Before that it was 4 birds, 4 bogeys, and 8 pars.

83 (+11). Was +1 through 6 and ended the front nine double, bogey, double. My swing is finally down pat. I just really need a mental teacher for putting.

7/14 fairways
10/18 greens
36 putts

I played this morning and shot a 73(+1). I went out in 35, but got a little ugly coming back in with a 38. Today was the first time I took out my new driver. I got a Nike SQ Str8-Fit and hit the ball the best that I have off the tee in a while.

Another 38 today (+3) on McCabe's North course (34.9/62). Six pars, three bogeys. Putting was good. 2/7 fairways, 3/9 greens, 4/6 up and down. Gave myself several looks at birdie, just never converted... Much fun.

Combines with yesterday's 38 on McCabe's middle course for a two-day 76. Awesome.

Feeling pretty good about my game right now.

102... GROSS. I shot an 87 two days ago! :( My putting was awful today though... chipping was decent. Decided I'll throw down $10 at a Par 3 course for some short game practice before I hit 18 again.

Shot a 3 over 73 yesterday. Great round except for three 3 putts. I've been putting really well lately, but still have a 3 putt or two pop up every round. Birdied 3 of the last 5 holes coming in. Lipped out the 2 that I missed.

1 long putt that wasnt even intentional but ill take it...
every gir i got turned into a bogey... got up an down from everywhere...

ive been flirting with breaking 80 again but things just arent to be i guess
RUSS's avg drive - 230yrds and climbing

79....40/39. No birdies, no penalty strokes. From the tips. Didn't falter down the stretch. Satisfied. Handicap is coming back down.

Played two rounds today, shot an 84 on the first round and an 81 on the second round. Contact has improved a lot, been working on my weight shift, hip turn, and keeping my right elbow in and have started to make solid contact on the ball first.

    • As a supporter of the European team even though I chose to live in the US, this is kind of good news. I'm pretty close to Bethpage, but won't be going at these prices. Neither will the crazy drunk NY sports fans who would have made this a very difficult place to play as a Euro. The tickets will go to the city types who are entertaining clients and don't care about the money. Many of them are going to sit there and watch, not get all raucous. I am not dumb enough to believe that this is going to be like a Sunday afternoon stroll in the park for the Euros, but I think it will be significantly more subdued as a result of the prices. Even at $250 I would probably have been watching on the TV anyway so no real skin in the game. 
    • First, it is on free TV. NBC is free to anyone with an antenna, and is on almost any TV in the U.S. with a minimal amount of effort. Charging "a bargain price" would be incredibly dumb. They charged $750 and the event sold out almost immediately. You could better argue they should have charged MORE, not less. What happens if you charge less: ticket scalpers buy up even more of the tickets because they see value: if tickets were $250, they'd clearly have sold for $1k or more on the secondary market. That's tremendous value. Fans would end up paying the same or more, or just not being able to go. Sure, a few who happened to be online at the precise moment on a fast connection and didn't fumble with their credit cards might have gotten tickets for $250, but the secondary market and ticket brokers would have scooped up the vast majority with automated processes and bots and scripts, then re-sold them later on. This way, fans get to purchase the tickets, and the PGA is earning that revenue, not the secondary ticket brokers. Econ 101. Supply and Demand. Nope.
    • Tiger Woods on Ryder Cup pay: 'I hope they would get $5 million each and donate it all to charity' Edit - the link has no title, but basically Tiger wants $5 million for each US player to “donate to charity”   They could put the Ryder Cup on free to air tv, and charge the fans a bargain price to get in.  If you have to  give the players $60 million, that’s why the tickets are $750.

    • P7TWs all day IMO. Especially because they're already fit for you. And it sounds like you have an interest in buying/selling so using the Vapor Pros would only decrease their value.
