What'd You Shoot Today?


Recommended Posts

I played 9 holes at 6:15 am. Beautiful conditions - crisp, clear morning with a variable breeze. Shot 4 over for 9. 4 pars, 1 double, 3 bogeys, 1 birdie. Could have been one better I feel, with 2 3-putts. I'm starting to believe in my dream of getting to 9 or better before the season is over ...

75. 7 over par including a triple bogey and a double on the 18th. Not at all bad! Has moved my hanidcap from 11.5 to 10.6. Still hoping to be 8 or better by the end of thje season.

Benefits of short game practise (Pelz system) beginning to show. I gave myself 5 decent birdie chances and converted 2.

Played in the first real tournament of the year. Started out with a strong 69 first round (only one bogey...) to be tied for the lead after the first day.

Second day, I'll admit, the nerves got to me a bit on the first tee. After a double bogey to start, the putter went to the wayside. Ended the round with 37 putts and a three over 75 to finish in a tie for 7th. Not too bad considering I've never had a top 10 playing in an NNGA event, but it should have been a lot better.

46. I was a mess yesterday. We played the back 9 at White Lake Oaks. The driver was all over the place. I did hit a few nice shots with the hybrid and my distance control with my irons was pretty good. I made my first birdie of the year on the same hole where a few weeks ago I made my first par of the year. I am now -1 on that hole for the year (2 rounds). My back is still hurting pretty badly and I am having a hard time getting down on full shots with my wedges.

I love to hate this damn game.


Played yesterday, shot 55 - 50. Hit 4/13 Fairways, 1/18 GIR, 37 putts, 4 triples and 2 snowmen....only 3rd time out this year so far, not a good day. My ball striking has been very inconsistent and I have developed this pull-draw on the majority of my drives (3W) and irons, except I still sliced the 3 Drivers I hit...short game is still in hibernation....UGH....but I was putting with a foreign putter as mine gets re-gripped, so thats my excuse!

shot a 106... blehhh. driver was good, and am trying to instill a "swing left" mentality to most of my clubs.

will start putting in more practice chipping and putting, as it is the worst aspect of my game right now.

I played 36 yesterday. The morning 18 was an 87 - my first time breaking 90! One birdie, 6 pars, 6 bogeys, and 5 doubles. I was so proud of my birdie: it was on the 18hcp, but still: 125 or so yard par-3, eight bunkers guarding. I started a 6-iron at the center of the green and faded it to a front-right pin position that was right over a bunker. It rolled to about a foot. Nifty thing, too, is that one of the other guys in the group made birdie too. I followed it was a par on the next hole, so I didn't lose it right away.

Then the wheels came off on the hybrid, the 3-wood, and the putter in the afternoon and I shot a 97. And I hurt my lower side. Still hurts today. But I shot that 87 in the morning, and that makes me smile.

first round in 8 that i didn't break 90, shot 91. it's becoming clear to me that although i'm bombing my drives, my home course does not allow for the "gouge" part. although my bomb is 250-265 (not 300+ like most everyone else on this forum) and we're getting zero roll right now with as wet as it's been. on a 400 yard par 4, i was 150 yards out but absolutely buried in the rough. it took three shots from there to reach the green since i kept landing in the rough. i've learned my lesson that i need to take my lumps and chip out when i have a lie like that....silver lining is that i had two 8s, so reported 89 since my max score is 7.

86 on Sunday. Relatively easy course but a decent round for me. It was also my first 18 hole round of the year, so I was fairly pleased the results. Hit the ball well of the tee, short game needs work, as always.

77, blech . Aerated greens, so that didn't help, but I was pretty blah all day. No good shots, but no horrible bad shots either. Just eh.

    • Day 65 - 2024-12-04 Helped @NatalieB with her stuff on the force plates, then hit some balls working on the left wrist stuff. Picking up the club.
    • Day 216 (4 Dec 24) - Dink and roll Weds - working on the green side short game covering 5-10 yd chips to low running pitches to about 50 yds (I have accommodating neighbors).  Focused on keeping stance more narrow, eye target about 2” in front of the ball AND not looking up until I see the ball leave.  This drill has really enhanced my confidence in making more consistent ball strikes.  
    • As a supporter of the European team even though I chose to live in the US, this is kind of good news. I'm pretty close to Bethpage, but won't be going at these prices. Neither will the crazy drunk NY sports fans who would have made this a very difficult place to play as a Euro. The tickets will go to the city types who are entertaining clients and don't care about the money. Many of them are going to sit there and watch, not get all raucous. I am not dumb enough to believe that this is going to be like a Sunday afternoon stroll in the park for the Euros, but I think it will be significantly more subdued as a result of the prices. Even at $250 I would probably have been watching on the TV anyway so no real skin in the game.
