85OTS (par 70) 1 over nett.

Played the first 3 holes (9 hole course) in a total of +10 for the day.

Some good stretches in the middle/end of each side. Two more 3 putts on GIR. Most not-optimal.

Shot a 46 on a par 36 long 9 hole course. I missed a 5 footer on 9 for a par, which would have made it even bogey for the round, plus 3 pars in a row!

My best round of the year, and perhaps of last year as well. Irons were on, I was confident with the putter (even though I missed a short one or two), and I missed only 2 fairways with the long stick.

The tips from my "hit irons insanely fat" thread helped a lot. Keeping my weight forward especially. I hit barely any fat shots, maybe a couple.

Second round of the year and was able to scrape by with an 85. Pretty decent considering how lousy I was hitting the ball yesterday. It may have been a little better if the greens weren't playing like plinko boards.

Went down to Perry Park in Ky on Good Friday. 2nd outing, and even though my score doesnt reflect it, I was very happy with the way I was hitting the ball. Shot an overall 107. 56 on Whitetail, and 51 on Buckskin. Couple 8's on Buckskin killed me. Putting was pretty decent, mostly 2-putts, had two 4-putts that killed me. I hit my driver mostly straight most of the day, which made me very happy. Just have to adjust it back one turn now, as I have it set at -2 (have the SQ Dymo2 Str8 fit), and some of my shots went straight and left cause of it, so Im hopin to just turn it back to -1 and hopefully get back to neutral before long.

Shot 81 and was a little disappointed in the end but overall the signs are good. You see I was absolutely on fire after opening with 5 pars. Then had a sloppy double and then a birdie. Finished with 2 great scrambling Pars to finish the front nine at just +1 for a 37 and 24 Stableford points. One of my best opening nines ever. Back 9 opened with another sloppy bogey, then very solid Par, bogey and then 3 great pars. Finished Double, Double, bogey for an 81. Oh what could've been.

Interesting side note: Only hit driver once. Don't know why I carry it, I hit my 3 Wood better and more consistently than any other club. Only missed one fairway with it.

Bring on next week.

80.......44/36. Seriously. Two hazards and an OB on the front. Two three-putts. Three birdies on the day. But the kicker is my son shot 75. Really nice.

    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on. 
    • I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
    • Day 128 12-18 Worked on rotation and getting to lead side. Still working on the flow feeling while doing that. Recorded swings. 
    • IMO-the only thing entertaining was the relay race. Everything else was excruciatingly boring...or just  stupid, like the 14-club thing. Watching guys blade wedges into the water over and over is not at all interesting.
