What'd You Shoot Today?


Recommended Posts

Woo baby! Great day for me today! Shot a 76 from the blue tees(5,866 yards). Had an alright front nine considering I had 6 bogies and only 3 pars. I hit some bad tee shots which hurt my chanches for hitting my greens in regulation. But the back nine was definately my best nine holes ever. Shot a 35 (-1) Started with a birdie on 10 which is a pretty short par 5. I then went on to par 11, 12, 13, and 14. Then, on 15 I came as close to a hole in one as I ever have in my life, about 2 and 1/2 feet from the pin. I put that in for my second birdie on the back. Though, on 16 I sliced my drive far right into the woods and ended up taking a bogey and my only penalty stroke for the round. Went on to par 17 and 18 for a -1 back nine. My putting was on today, too, which really helped keep my score low. Only 26 putts total. Woo! Great day.

Played the Primrose Course at The Country Club. Sick. Tough, but you can shoot good if you play good. Thick rough, slippery greens. Just the way I like it. Shot 40 (+5). I'll take that anyday. Especially at a course I've never played before.

Shot an 81 today - Double-Bogey'd the 18th - should've broken 80!
Cheers!

Shot a new personal best of 78 today.

The grounds were a bit muddy, as it has rained nonstop for two weeks now, resulting in almost no roll.

I took the opportunity to focus on a slower, more controlled swing with my driver.

I have struggled with hooking the ball out of play during the past few weeks. I'd occasionally crush one 315-330 with a slight draw, however I'd find myself hitting from unfavorable positions more times than not when I mishit, and losing one or two balls a round has been killing my score.


In focusing on accuracy over power, I was only averaging around 265-275 off the tee. However hitting the bulk of the fairways resulted in my first time to break into the 70s. I'm excited to get back out there on Sunday. :)

I missed a few costly birdie putts from within 5 ft, notably on #3 and #18.

I shot an 80 today (par 69 course), +3 on the front and +8 on the back.

I took my first lesson on Thursday, all the changes worked great the front nine, swung the clubs great, but just blew up and was over swinging on the back.

They say golf is like life, but don't believe them. Golf is more complicated than that.


I shot 45 and 45 for a 90 today. Other than some putting problems it felt like my most solid round of the year. I came home feeling good


31 Stableford points in 3-club challenge. Winner had 38. I used 7-wood, pitching wedge and the obligatory putter. Could NOT control the chips onto on the greens without my trusty lob wedge...

Shot a 79 today on a par 69 course. First time ever shooting under 80. Not bad for only playing for 4 months.

76 on the university course, Par 70, back tees (but still not a very long course). Played well tee-to-green, had 3 3-putts and finished bogey-bogey... I'll take it though!

Just ended an annual tournament amongst friends. Its a only eight guys, and we play 4 rounds (4 diff courses) in two days. I actually played a practice round the day before, so for me 5 rounds in three days.

87, 96, 88, 82, 91. All were par 72 and ~6600-7000 yards. Three of the four I had never played before and I never really got it going. I felt like every round I left 5-6 on the course. The best round of 82 I only hit 3 GIR & 3 FW, up and downs were about 50%.

Played yesterday morning.

Went out in +3 (40) and in with -3 (32) for a smooth 72.

Putter was absolutely awesome today...just didn't quite have the speed on the front nine.

Bring on Kelly Cup 2009!!

    • Day 237 (26 Dec 24) - played 18 with niece and her husband at one of the local courses.  We were first out - so we pretty had our own pace of play.  First few holes were a struggle, but the groove started by hole 5.  The green side wedge game kicked in - had several kick in up and down pars.  Best of the day - had my first ever sandie birdie on #9. It’s a neat par three with a pot hole bunker - found it off the tee.  Had about a 22yd shot from the bunker to the flag.  Hit an easy shot out with the 54 that hit softly and gently rolled center cup.  Had several other close wedge shots into others that were close but no hole out.  Was a great day with the green side wedge game - and seeing solid fruit from the drills. 
    • Day 16: 12/26/2025 A little more mirror work today. Then out to the garage net.  The first part of my PPJ swing thought is really starting to stick. The J still takes some focus. Plus, I'm still putting a priority on getting all the way to my finish. 
    • Day 87 - 2024-12-26 Practiced for about an hour after doing a bunch of little maintenance things downtown.
