44 - One under bogey golf. I bogeyed the first 5 holes, doubled the 6th, then pared the 8th and 9th. Pretty happy with my lag putting and my driving. Caught some thin shots, though, due to not keeping my hips steep enough.

81(+11) today! Played really well, just made some stupid mistakes that costed me my first round in the 70's. 4 doubles, two should've easily been par or bogies. Three birdies saved me though.

74 at the Upper Peak .

Hit 7 GIR but if I had a yard stick I'd have hit about six more. Lots of putts from just off the greens. Need to work on my partial wedges before I play Locust Hill on Sunday.

Jimmy Hanlin was filming Tee it Up Ohio while I was there.

I so need to start figuring out what is wrong with my driver.. LOL  and to remember to warm up before hitting #1..  Only hit 1 fairway on the front 9 for a 37, and hit 3 fairways on the back 9 for a 35.. I'm happy, but that has been my trend the last month of play..  Struggle on the out nine and shoot par or better on the in nine..  The driver is the key..  :(

38 front nine, 45 back nine (two 6's in a row!) Was hitting everything great on the front...maybe got too overconfident on the back

My philosophy on golf "We're not doing rocket science, here."

+2 at a course i've never played  (9 holes)... 3 over on the last 2 holes :(

blah, an 85 on a pretty easy 6800 yard par 72.  it was like i was TRYING to make bogeys almost.  2/3 of the round, i would find SOME way to mess up.  i never strained myself for the bogeys, a lot of them were relatively long par putts that i would miss by just a few inches one way or the other, but i think i only hit six greens in regulation today and i didn't hole any putts longer than 5 feet.  seven pars, ten bogeys and a triple (hooked my tee shot OB on a 180 yard par 3, then three putted it to boot).

Only got to hit 9 this am as a tournament started at 8:00....Shot 37 on a par 35...figures I couldnt hit the back 9......

Picture the shot.....Believe the picture....

-1 today. Didn't play from the blues (~7100) because my friend I play with every two weeks isn't long enough to play from there. I just teed off with a few more 3 woods and 3 irons. Still felt good though. The new i15 with the Diamana WB is just killing 'em.  :)

Even par at Locust Hill.

Of course... we only played one hole before we were rained out. :-P

Fun round today!  The front 9 went from sunny to crazy windy with horizontal rain back to sunny (just as we made the turn).    The back 9 was about the same but with more rain!  I almost turned my umbrella inside out but managed to catch it in time!  Through all that I managed to finish only 10 over par.  Not great but not too bad either.

The highlight was hitting a 410yd par 4 in one shot (it was actually on the fringe but my buddy decided to count it).  Downhill, massive tail wind and my normal 290yd bomb made for an extra $10 in my pocket!  Should have bet more!!

81 on a par 36. Let's just say I've gotten rusty since the last time I played a round of golf about 10 years ago. And maybe me having played plenty of baseball in between didn't help my swing.

Hit a 43 (+8) on my local course today for nine! First birdie for me today as well :) My game is really weird, I never hit birdies, as today is my first one, but I hit a lot of pars. I always choke on the birdie putts. It's a mental game i play with myself i think. Overall i'm happy with that score, as I would only be a +16 if I shot 18 in that fashion. I'm somewhere around a 20-25 handicap so that's a pretty darn decent day for me ;)

    • Feeling a tiny bit more upright, more width, and a slightly faster tempo. Still not enough confidence to bring a square face set up to the course but will get there one day. Interestingly, it didn't take this long to bring the driver square set up to the course. Its is like rehabbing my ankle all over again. Slow, painful and wanting for patience. I guess this is how you fill this bucket - one spoonful at a time.
