My driver and 3 wood got sick lately and i decided to play my rounds with only irons

So the longest club i play was a 3 Iron and i shot like 10 over on par 72  6500 yards course.

The long par 4 ( > 380 yards to 444 Yards ) are the tough ones...

What I Play:
913D3 9.5°Diamana Kai'li 70 Stiff  "C3" | 910F 15°, Diamana Kai'li 80 Stiff "D2" | 910H 19°,  Diamana Kai'li for Titleist 85 Hybrid Stiff | Titleist 714 AP2 4 to P Aerotech Steelfiber i110 S | SM4 Vokey 50.12, 54.14 & SM5 60.11K| 34" Edel Umpqua + 40g Counter Weight

46 on Moody's front nine yesterday.... Sprayed intermediate shots left and right...

Putter was good, Wedges so-so, Intermediate Irons blew chunks, Driver ok

The second straight year of my new Christmas tradition - nine holes at Winter Park Golf Club. Shot one-under 34 including two chip-ins. Made a 6-footer for birdie on the last hole.

Not bad for my first round in over a month.


Posted

Had a lazy 9 holes today and shot 43 on a par 34 course.

2 pars and 1 birdie and managed to hit the fairway and greens in regulation for these three holes!

Biggest improvement was putting with only one three putt hole, four two putt holes and four 1 putt holes. Probably the first time Ive had less than 20 putts in a round of golf for this rank beginner :)

Shot 10 over in the front and 1 over at the back nine playing from the back tee.

I have 2 penalties ( OB ) on the front and having trouble to get up and down .

I finally put my ball in play on the back 9 and was i under through 7 holes .Ended the back 9 with bogey bogey ...


It is all about driving accuracy and confidence , need to bring that to the next game this weekend.

Just ducked out for a quick 9 holes after work.

Decided to take onboard some tips ive read off these forums to help with driving accuracy and boy i wish i slowed my drive swing down a bit more often.

Ending up hitting the ball only 10-15m shorter but far, far straighter. Even into a headwind which is a massive new logic to me haha.

Ended up shooting 5 over par for 9 holes which is very efficient for me just getting back into the swing of things.

Cant wait to knock out a full round tomorrow after work

Last 3 days where very windy 30mph I shot 76,81,81, today no wind and shot 73 putting was very good on tough greens, tree line course. Today I used a modified stack and tilt swing with weight stay 50/50 and no early pop up, it really felt good. I have so many swings who know what I will use the weekend.  But that's what makes my game fun I never stay with one swing to long unless I'm playing for money.

78 from a 6500 yard par 71. It was 45 degrees and not too windy. About the best you're going to get in jersey this time of year.

Played 9 holes at Farmville Golf and Country Club in Farmville NC yesterday.  Teed off at 9am with no wind and 40 deg temps.  Shot a 48 and had a blast!


Posted
Just shot a 78 (10 over) on a rather windy course which was great. Managed a few pars and a birdie on the back 9 with the wind to keep things in check. FIR was up around 50-60% which on a windy day is good for me. The goal of a single digit handicap certainly looks achievable.

First time out in over three months (since I had ankle surgery).

Shot 85 -- pretty pleased with that.

Got a birdie, seven pars, seven bogeys, a double, and two triples.

Missed a bunch of fairways.

Best of all, I finished the round pain free!  (Walked the front nine, took a cart for the back nine.)

Shot 78 with 38 putts. Driver was on and only missed 3 fairways. I wish I had 18 on video. Par 5 into the wind, killed my drive(soft cut) dead center 200 yards out. Flushed a 4 iron( another soft cut) laser to 8 feet. Lipped out the Eagle putt tapped in the birdie. Thing of beauty.

Last Friday I played at Stallion Mountain Golf Club in Las Vegas and shot my best round to date, a 92. It was 11 under my handicap par of 103. !!! I only hit 3 greens. I can't imagine what my score could have been with my GIRs.

Shot 45-46 at Legends Moorland. 1 Birdie, 6 pars, plenty of "others". The greens were annoyingly fast, and the pin placements were absurd. This course has some ridiculous undulations in its greens. Four 3-putts and a 4-putt along with 71% fairways hit. Playing Grande Dunes Resort Course tomorrow, and then the Dunes Club (Golf Digest #52 Public Course 2013) on Tuesday. Hopefully I can manage a couple scores in the low 80's.

Shot 80 at my home course today. 6500 yard (played the blues) par 71. Struck the ball okay (11 GIR) but had 36 putts. They aerated half the greens and the others that weren't were extremely slow.

    • That makes more sense thanks.  I'll give it a go.  That other video really helps.  Will post another video once I practice it a bit and appreciate the help as always.  
    • Day 25: range and putting session. Worked about an hour at the range. Filmed a bit - think some progress but need more. Then went and worked on putts within 10 feet for about 20 minutes.

    • Day 45 (22 Apr 26) - good friend wanted to play the Weds shootout. Glad we did as I had the most consistent round in a while - 38/41 for a 79 (first sub 80 in months): 27 putts, 9 pars (7 were up and down 1 putts), 8 bogies, 1 birdie and 0 dbls or worse!  This is the 1st full round where I’ve not had at least one dbl (or worse) and 0 penalties.  I also came 1 hole from having “no sixes” (bogied the par five 16th).  All the drills came together today for a solid round.  
    • Day 568 - 2026-04-22 Created a 33-minute playlist and paused it while I stopped. I mostly did some backswing and a little downswing work with the mirror. This got me most of the way through the playlist, so then I chopped for a good 15 or 20 minutes.
