What'd You Shoot Today?

[ThomasG]

I haven't played in a few weeks. The last time I played was at a Country Club in the Bay Area of California (visiting friends) and shot an 89.

[Fat Slice]

I shot a 93 yesterday. 43 front, 50 back. #16 was 3x bogey, #18 was 4x bogey. Was holding it together OK until the end.

Shot an 89 today, first time breaking 90. Felt good to do it in crappy conditions, but three 3 putts had me thinking "what if".

[ET-Taylor]

I had a 91 on winter greens which was a nett 63 in the winter sweep i did have two shots OB and i started 6 6 on two par 3s and had a quadruple but i was wearing shoes as i forgot my golf shoes and the course was waterlogged almost

The joys of winter golf

Could have been 85 but o well

77....13 pars, 5 bogeys. Walked the whole 18. Beautiful Carolina day. The beautiful part is I only hit 4 fairways and 6 greens but got up and down for par 8 out of 11 times. Craziness.

Shot 76 today for the first round of my tournament and it was at TOBACCO ROAD in sanford, NC. Rated from the white tees as 73.6 rating and 150 slope lol. 4th hardest public course in the US. 5 birdies 6 bogeys and 2 doubles (cause of stupid greens i had a 2 foot put with 3 1/2 inches of break left to right now thats stupid). birdied all par 3 but 1 and the 3 that i made birdies on i lipped them out going for a ACE. BTW Im 14 years old....

[UP&DOWN]

Haven't played in a month. I was expecting a 100 instead I played fairly good. 86. 45 on the front and 41 on the back. Played the tips as well, and I only hit one good drive all day, so I am happy.

After a 15 year layoff (been playing tennis) I watched a lot of youtube instructional videos, went to driving range a few times, and finally went to the course. I played Indian Creek in Carrollton, TX and shot a 91. I figure it's only going to get better from here. I was just amazed that I shot under a 100.

Par

Popular Creek Golf Course in San Mateo, CA par 70, course playes 6,042 yards from the back tees on a calm day with very little wind.

36 front
34 back

1 boogie
1 double boogie
3 birdies

7 up and down with 9 attempts or 78%
28 putts
10 greens hit out of 18 or 56%
6 fairways hit out of 14 fairways or 43%

9 one putts and 1 three putt

In summary the keys was my up and down and putting. I practice with a PW yesterday for about an hour hitting full, 3/4 and hip high shots that I used today with different clubs. Another key was my putting, I practice at least 45 minutes before my tee time on three types of putts. Straight putts up to 10 feet, distance control putts and side hill putts from up to 3 feet to help read the break and judge distances for angle putts.

My three putt came on a short missed putt from 2 feet that I pushed. I also miss hit a 6 iron on a par three from 170 yards but was able to get up and down to save par. I birdie the hole right after I double boogied.

12 over for an 84...
first day out after a weeks worth of rain... nor'easter pounded us pretty good... most courses around here are still underwater...
lots of 'hazards' in the middle of a few fw's... lol... ball only found 1 of them luckily it was just on the edge and playable...
after reading the 6i thread all week... i seem to be hitting it much farther... at least today i did... lol
driving was straight... approach shots were straight... putting was on and off... had a couple of 3 putts... chipping was money... left 3 birdies out there

[lobsterzilla]

shot 12 over ..... on the front nine ! :( thankfully i turned it around alittle on the back nine, only shotting 6 over for an 89.


for the first round after 3 months due to back surgury, and my first day with new irons ....


I'm pretty happy with how i played. Coulda been better, but i can only ask so much of myself after everything that's happened.

[PitaRamos]

Shot an 88 for my first breaking of 90. Missed 5 birdie putts inside of 10 feet, 3 par putts. Need to work on that inside this winter. Think that will be it until spring

[Stuart]

Shot a 1 under 69 yesterday. It's been a while since I've done that....I have to honestly give the credit to the swing aid i tried out recently called the Swing Extender. It immediately helped me with a problem I've been having with my left arm. I can't stress enough how important extension is in your golf swing.

[JoJo]

I guess I have to post this....I shot a 121 last Friday. It was a victory just playing in Chicago in November though. I'm a new golfer so I'm not real concerned with scores quite yet. Still trying to get a good swing somewhat consistant.

[flopdarock]

11 over for an 83...
front was just brutal... only 1 par...
absolutely torched the back... 2 over...
didnt even start playing well until #9...
lots of chunks today... that and distance just out right sucked... everything was right at it... but short... some way short

[Chilli Dipper]

76 on a par-61 course. I was striking the ball really well, but my short game wasn't up to snuff. If I was playing a full-length layout, I may have been close to breaking 90.

[Addicted2Golf]

I had one of my best rounds before the snow came. I was even through 5 which included 2 pars, 2 bogeys and 1 eagle. After the tee shot on the 6th I was lucky to find my ball. Curse the winter!

[flopdarock]

shot 10 over for an 82...
i had a few drives that left me with wedges an short irons to greens... couldnt capitalize... had 3 eagle opportunities... didnt even walk away with birdies :(
