What'd You Shoot Today?


Recommended Posts

96 on a perfect day (except for the score, of course). I couldn't stop slicing my new driver, my putting on the front nine was abysmal, and I badly topped my fairway metal off the tee both times I took it out of my bag (the second one struck the tee marker ahead of me and ricocheted into a pond some 100 yards to my 4:00). I had a wonderful ballstriking day with my irons, though, and they kept my score from descending into triple digits.

In my UnderArmour Links stand bag...

Driver: '07 Burner 9.5° (stiff graphite shaft)
Woods: SasQuatch 17° 4-Wood (stiff graphite shaft)
Hybrid: 4DX Ironwood 20° (stiff graphite shaft)Irons/Wedges: Apex Edge 3-PW, GW, SW (stiff shaft); Carnoustie 60° LWPutter: Rossa AGSI+ Corzina...


First time out in 2010! I wanted to shoot lower then the temperature (47F), but scored 49/50. Had 39 putts. On the positive side, I was only two over on the four par 3's, and had three GIR's on the other holes, but it was too many doubles, and one triple. Still, a fun day, if you can golf under the clouds at 44-47 degrees. I was walking and pretty much overheated from too many layers.

By the way, you southerners will never know how much easier it is to chip a ball out of a snow packed bunker. Never thought I would like snow on the course, but it sure beats hard packed sand.

Why not show off really quickly haha...I shot under par today! I played my local 9 hole course today for the first time, The Lakes at El Segundo, and shot 1 under par. 2 birdies, 1 bogey.

It's a really easy course, but hey, hitting that last putt in to score under par will probably never get old!

I managed to sneak out for a round while in Alabama last weekend and shot 50-44. It's amazing how much the golfing brain forgets in 2 months.

Awards, Achievements, and Accolades

Played for the first time last Thursday morning in Myrtle Beach at Myrtlewood - Palmetto course, it was pretty nice for being so wet. I hit my new clubs (Driver,3W, 3h,4h) and irons pretty well for the first time out, short game was horrible. I was too worried about the wet turf/mud so I counted 13 fat or bladed chips, add in 3 buried bunker balls that took 2 shots to get out each, that killed my score. I shot a 113, last year my average for the year was 98, but I did hit 8 fairways, which is really good for me and had 34 putts (36 was my average last year for 21 rounds). Overall a good day, it was nice to be outside in the sun, even if it was 45 degrees and breezy! Let the golfing season begin!

Second round back out after 5 month home building hiatus. Shot 84 (44-40) last week on the same golf course (Wildwood Golf Club, Village Mills, Texas: 72 rating/127 slope), struck it poorly as expected. Bounced back today with a solid 78 (38-40), more solid shots today. Irons felt better, still weak off the tee, maybe 250 at my longest all day. Putted and chipped well, which really helped out keeping the score manageable.

shot 46 today at mountain gate cc. hit the ball well enough to shoot in the low 40's, real tough course

44 today. 18 putts, 3/7 fairways, and 3 GIR. The missed fairways were just barely off. Playing lift, clean and cheat though as the fairways are plugging still with all the snow melt/rain we've had. Using the 3H off every tee except the par 3's. My driver is enroute, and is supposed to be delivered tomorrow.

Mistakes.....there were many, but 3 stick out as extremely fixable!!

1. Duffed a greenside chip on a par 5 which would've given me another GIR and probably would've saved me a stroke.

2 & 3. two horrid lag putts which led to two 3-putts bogeys. 2 more strokes lost.


The local course here at MSU is opening up tomorrow and I'm ditching work in the morning to go shoot a round of 18 after a long winter layoff. Should be an ugly round, but damn it'll be awesome to be playing golf again.

54 / 44 = 98

Back nine was all bogeys with one par.

I need to work on:
- hitting the green on a short approach shot
- chipping close to the hole
- putting
...if I want to turn those bogeys into pars.

    • Day 159: did a stack session.  
    • Day 84 - 2024-12-23 I hit balls for 20 minutes after lessons and after getting down a BodiTrak for resale. Hinge. Path was weirdly consistent today at 1.6° or so ± like 0.8° only.
    • Day 13: 12/23/2024 A lot more mirror work today. Using my same swing thought. Some slow motion, some full motion, some in between. Today I made sure I took every swing all the way to the finish. 
    • Day 234 (23 Dec 24) - Mystery Monday - what to do today….pretty straight up as I spent time with the 58 and a series of pitches (lower flighted all the way up to high fliers over the tulip tree).  Wrapped up the day going lower ball with the 9i and easy bump and runs.  Again as always the setup was key - case in point, got lazy and casually set up, feet straight and promptly hit a couple of nice heely shots hard right.  Knew it immediately, as next couple I went through the routine and flew the balls promptly too the target point.  Setup - setup - setup…
