Shot 91 at a par 73 course. Fairways were overgrown and the greens were aerated. Had one 4-putt and a quite a few 3-putts. Couldn't buy a putt today.

77 with an eagle on a par 5. two on and one putt. putt was only 7 feet too. not to many mistakes with the driver. 3 wood was crazy good. but my short game was a little off today.

84 today in first club outing. Was hitting the ball well, but couldn't get into rhythm putting on aerated greens. Only hit 4 FW's, but majority of misses were only off by a few yards. 4 GIR, 34 putts.

Started off strong parring the first 4 holes, then just lost touch on the bumpy greens. Oh well, not too bad I guess.

Played a couple of rounds so here they are.

Par 70, shot a 81.  Drove the ball terrible, only hit four greens but got up and down 7 times.  One big number.  Putter was working great.  29 putts, no three putts.  Probably the best round I've played in a while.

Par 71, shot a 91.  Iron play terrible.  I mean horrid.  hit 1 green, lots of putts.  Just off.

Need to work on driving the ball and iron play.

First two rounds of the year this weekend. Hit the ball terrible on Saturday and shot a 76. Hit the ball great on Sunday and shot an 83. Sure is a funny game.

Golf is deceptively simple and endlessly complicated

Played Saturday and Sunday.

Shot 79 Saturday and that was quite possibly the best I have ever hit the ball. Felt like I couldnt hit it bad if I tried to.


Shot 83 Sunday and it wasnt a pretty 83. It was one that felt like it was a 95. Thank goodness for a decent short game.

105 today on the second round of the season, getting close to my goal of breaking 100.  It would have been really close but I blew 6 shots trying to get out of two bunkers, looks like I need to practice getting out of them.

First time breaking par! Played 9 holes and shot 35. It's not that hard of a course, but still nice to break par. Two birdies one bogey. The only bogey i had was a 3 putt on the first hole... easily could have been a 34. Guess that's what keeps us coming back.

86 on a par 71 course. Had my career low score of 84 here last fall so I feel comfortable playing there. Left scores out there, though, was constantly battling a push of the tee. Not fun.

72 on a par 62.  Only my second round of the season and I'm still shaking off the cobwebs.  I also learned that Bridgestone E6 Yellows aren't for me.  I need my chips and pitches around the green and they just don't have enough spin for my taste.  At least they were free!

So today me and some buddies went and played Belle Terre in Laplace, LA. Let's just say that the quote "the better the course the better you play" is very true. The course was terrible. Whenever you hit the green you could see the sand fly up. Dont think it should be like that on Sunday. Tho of the 14 holes where you need your driver I only hit 1 drive that went is the rough.

    • Starting over - missed posting yesterday and it had been less than 28 days since last off day….today was tempo drill day.  Worked on takeaway and moving smoothly into weight shift.  
    • I know it is probably dependent on a lot of factors, but how windy does it have to be out before you need to start guessing on how much it would influence the break of your putt?  When I played at Bandon, it was like 25-30 mph winds. The caddies talked about the wind negating break. The only time I had it visually influence my putt was on hole 18 at Bandon Dunes. My missed my putt on the high side of a pretty severe breaking putt. The slope around the hole was in the 2-3 degree range. As the ball was about to come to a stop, the wind gusted and pushed the ball half a rotation into the cup.  The rest of the week I thought it had no influence at all. I was thinking, is it just over thinking to try to account for the wind?   
    • Day 310 - 2025-08-06 Went downtown in the late afternoon and got nearly two hours of work in. Not a ton of breaks. Was blasting the TS at the end, from a HomePod and two TVs. 😄 
    • I watched this video of his last night: I don't hate him like @boogielicious apparently does and thought this was a pretty good premise so I gave it a shot.  Not the worst thing in the world and I especially liked the premise.  He's got a lot of air to fill by himself, which he isn't great at, but in doing so, you get some decent insight into how his brain works while setting up shots/putts.
    • So driver is longer than all the other clubs and gear effect plays a bigger part with driver than anything else. If you're hitting it out of the heel it could slice even if you have the face square. Could try some foot spray or impact tape and check that. Other thing is if the shaft is different in how it flexes or how flexible it is it could be affecting your swing somewhat. Driver also has the straightest face, so while with a 4 iron it might fade, with driver that can wind up being a slice with the same face angle at impact.
