I wasn't sure about going out and shot 40.

1 Double, 3 bogeys, and a birdie on the last. It was almost my first eagle that rolled 10" past.

73. Played very well on the front with -1, hitting 8 greens. The back started out well with 4 pars then standing on the 14th box I thought "I'm bogey free", which was followed by back to back bogeys for +2 on the back.

Shot a 79 with 3 doubles on Sunday at Callipe in Pleasanton. Nice track, good greens, nothing too tricky. Generally hit the ball well, but three shots in the environmentally protected areas and there you go.

First time playing this little course just outside of Jackson, MS called Live Oaks, it’s a fairly decent course that plays at around 6500yds with about 10 blind tee shots. Shot a 96 51/45, snapping it off the tee box just about every time(hit my 4 iron farther than driver/3wood….ouch) and hit a bunch of poor shots. Short game was decent, no 3 putts and I pitched in a birdie on the last hole from about 80 feet away.

Shot a 43/42 today. Couldnt drive today at all. Kept fading right. Hit my irons beautiful and putted amazingly, Than]ts what saved my behind. Hit a few 20-30 foot putts to save par and bogey. Had 2 birdies in there. All in all a fun time.

I'm going to give you a little advice. There's a force in the universe that makes things happen. And all you have to do is get in touch with it, stop thinking, let things happen, and be the ball.

    • Day 37, June 10.  Today was primarily WFH, so I had several practice sessions (indoors, off a mat, into the net).  At least one each of U, 9, and 6-iron full swings with the usual priority.   I also tried a few times a putting type stroke with my 4H, as something I should probably learn how to hit (and what it does), but the mechanical shot at home off a mat doesn't tell me much of what it's doing.  That's something I should probably try on a real green, not during a round until I've tried it.
    • Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.  
    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
