Probably would have shot around 50 if I had kept score. Shot a 7 on the first two holes and decided it would be a practice round Drained some huge putts though so that was a plus.

41 in my league. 5 bogeys, 4 pars. Fairly normal score for me in that league but it was one of those rounds where I could not make a 5 footer.

FWTIW: I was playing the back 9 in my small community course and bumped into this really old guy (older than me) who was just shooting 'em to the green...very slowly. He walked back to the tee box...again very slowly and began to chat with me. He apologized for having me wait which was no big deal, really. He confessed he hated to sink the balls in the cup because he couldn't bend over to retrieve them, so he just shot 'em to the pin.

maybe he got confused and thought he was on the driving range...

played a quick 9... still having shoulder injury problems... shot a 42 from the middle tees... maybe i should move to the seniors tees and just play irons so i dont stress my shoulder any worse

Well I started off with a nice 106 (NOT) and had lunch and decided that I would not sleep tonight thinking about it so I played another round. Shot much better with a 93, ok now I can sleep. Played in a group of 3 on the first round and it took the normal amount of time. The second round I played solo and there was no one out there. I was allowed to play through twice once on the front and once on the back. I thing I finished under 2 hours. Lightning Golf!

a none too impressive +8 for nine holes.

my accuracy was actually pretty solid today, but a pulled muscle in my back from two weeks ago is still giving me some grief, and i just couldn't seem to get any distance. everything was falling about 5-10 yards short of what i'm used to, so i only hit one GIR for the nine holes, which is what really killed my score.

Quite the up and down round yesterday at Barton Hills CC …….beautiful day and a beautiful course.

Score=73
4 birdies
1 eagle
3 bogies
2 double bogies

The doubles were just stupid mental blocks. Instead of punching out of trouble and scrambling for pars I tried to hit the "hero" shots and they wound up biting me in the ass.

Went 47-39 today playing with a group of friends. 2 birdies but 6 GIRs, putting was better then usual so I was happy. Only found 3 fairways but most of the mises were only a few feet off. Had a good day for it being 90* out.

    • Day 34 (14 Dec 25) - Got outside for a few moments to work on bump and runs with the 4h (again using the exaggerated weight shift reminder of the left (lead) heel). Finding that it helps keep the downswing arc extended.

    • I am currently playing a Cobra Ltdx LS 9 degree driver and Cobra Ltdx LS FW3. Both with Tensei White stock stiff shafts and original weights of 12g (heel) and 3g (toe). My miss is usually a pull fade or sometimes a slice, swing is out to in. Driver swing speed about 112 mph. Grips are stock regular. Intended change: Driver: Switching to Tensei White x-flex one inch shorter which I suppose would be 44,5? Changing heel weight to 18g. Changing grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Change hosel setting to standard draw. FW3: Changing heel weight to 16g (apparently not available in FW weights, but supposed to be something called "internal weight" a club builder can add which fits between the weight and the screw?). Change grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Changing hosel setting to standard +1. The goal is to 1) get better grip since I tend so lose grip in warm and moist conditions with the current grips and 2) mitigate the misses to start more straight with less side spin. Also considering adding the Cobra Ltdx LS FW5 instead of my old Taylormade R9 and getting 14g heel and 6g toe weights with the same grip as the others and hosel setting standard +1.   All of the above is based on conversations with ChatGPT and, as everyone knows, it can come up with pretty much whatever but I spent a few hours asking about different perspectives etc and this was the recommendation. So, my question is basically, does it make any sense?   Thanks.
