Shot 84 today at Fayetteville Country Club off the back tees, (70.4/127). I have only played a couple of times and today the conditions were pretty tough. We have had a lot of rain the last few days and the course is really soaked.

I choked last night. We already have the league title sewed up. We clinched 3 weeks ago. I also have the scoring average title virtually locked up. I would need to explode in my last two rounds to even make it interesting. All that was left of my goals for the year was to have an average below 40 (granted, par is 31). I went into last night at 40.1. I figured that I had to shoot a combined 77 for the final two nights to pull it off. I was just off most of the night and lost 3 balls enroute to a 41. Now I am going to have to shoot a 36 on Wednesday to pull it off. It's not out of the question as I have shot 35 once and 36 twice this year. I have gone as low as 33 there.

Shot a 76 today. 70.8/125. Breakdown was 38/38. I lipped out a few birdie putts as well. Hit the ball great off of the tee today, chipped very well and putted well. Iron play was mediocre I thought. I ended up bogeying 3 of the last four holes today which bothered me, although I have to say I was nervous on the last few holes being that I was going to beat my best score ever. I ended up tying it though.

Shot a 91 at Laughlin AFB. I was 13 over going into #17 and a got a triple on a par three. UGH!!! I was so fed up that I bought a 56 deg wedge to replace my 60deg. Club championship at River Crossing is next week. Wish me luck.

86 . 10 pars, 5 bogies, 2 doubles, and 1 triple. Apart from the triple and doubles it was very easy. Just knock it toward the hole and tap it in. I'm most happy about my putting. I dunked a handful of 4-8 footers that really helped.

Shot a god awfull 117 yesterday. Club championship too. I had a 66 on the front and a 51 on the back. The 51 I got a 9 and an 11 so there is some hope, I had 3 par holes in a row. I need some amazing scores moving forward to do anything, I just wish I hadn't broken my driver Thursday, real bad timing on that one.

Round 2 shot a 101 with 7 pars and 4 eights, and one 10... How can you get 7 pars and shoot a 101?

85 . One lost ball and I can think of three strokes I should have saved, but that is my best round. Last time I played with the Fusion Wide Soles, this time with the regular Fusions. They definitely are more forgiving than my 690.CB's... as if I needed someone to tell me that.

I left the driver and three wood in the bag and just played my Nickent 20° off the tee all day. I hit quite a few greens, trusted my swing and made some more key putts. I am very pleased with the progress.

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
