New PB.  79 at Indian Valley in Burlington, NC.  12 bogeys, but a tap in birdie and an eagle from 155 helped a lot.  best score since my return to golf after 12 years off......

78 (41 and 37) on Saturday.  Something clicked on driver, 100% fairways hit from hole 3 to the end.  Great back nine. 3 Bogies and 2 birdies and 4 pars, but one of those bogies included a penalty stroke.

90 yesterday.  83 strokes, plus 7 penalties.  On the plus side, I got to open a new box of balls when I got home......moments of brilliance peppered with periods of just missing my line...again and again and again.......but contact was clean

all over the place

81 Sunday with 3 birdies. 1 put off the green, hit the flag and in. I'm hardly playing this year compared to last year since I couldn't afford a membership this year (my local club has a low first year membership and then it goes up slightly for the second year but jumps big time for 3rd year so I couldn't afford it). I have to wait 4 years to be considered a new member. I've only played 4 rounds and 2 - 9 hole games this year.

Played the tips for the first time since we added about 230 yards of length a few years back. I was playing with a few guys who were qualifying for the club championship, so I teed it back when I am at an age when I should be teeing it forward (I am not championship flight material). Four of the par 4's are unreachable for me, and a few others play way more difficult, especially two of the par-3's. Slope goes from 135 for the regular tees to 140.

46-45-91. Should have been better, as I three-putted four times, and missed some easy putts that would have made for sweet up-and-downs.

Pretty ugly 40 this morning.  Missed two putts around 6' that I should have made hits my lines and speed, just did not read them correctly.  Got off the tee well, and my approach shots were ok.  I really need to focus on paying attention to the wind, selecting the right club based on wind/elevation, and I am not sure I can actually read a green.

A discouraging 45 with back to back triples. Can't figure out putting in the wind. Really not sure how to play in the wind period. One shot rides the wind, the next cuts right through. Seems like for every adjustment the opposite happens.

91 @ Babe Zaharias GC in Tampa.....5306 yds Par 72, 65.1/117

Horrible round.....had been playing fast greens so I had not one, but four par putts stop 1/2 to 1 inch from center of hole.

Shot a 79 on a par 71 today.

Crazy round, 4 putted for a double on a par 4 hole, missed 2 foot for birdie on another, 3 putted from 15 foot for par on a par 5.

Birdied the 17 from the fringe to get me under 80 for only the 2nd time ever.

+6 42, started off slow because i didn't have time to warm up, went +4 in the first 3 holes, went +2 the rest of the way in.

Need to work on alignment, i am standing to close to the ball, and aiming to far right.

After a 16 year lay off and the second year back I'm finally getting my old swing back.  I was away for so long the Club Pro looked at me like I had 2 heads when I asked for a sleeve of Titleist  Balata balls.  Shot a 76 on a tight par 67 course.  Started with a triple bogey 8, 3 double bogies but made 4 birds.

Par 71. Shot -1 34 on the front, +6 42 on the back. My best front nine of the year. Shot -1 on the back once this year as well, now if only I could put those two together... I'll shoot 69. That would feel good.

I did a 50/49 = 99  on a 73.9/131 course at 7151 yds. since my driver showed up I played the black tees. I tied my score from the white tees 6 weeks ago! and I only had 40 putts!(7-over last)...ahh I'm happy...It was 98* and I had the course all to myself.

60, with one three-putt and a few nice birdies. Nearly aced two holes. A bit high but it was windy and it was to establish my handicap for the league, so it's okay if it's a bit higher than necessary.

Played here.

Shot 43 this morning and it was fugly.  Could not get off the tee, trying to hit fades with the driver and had hit two pull hooks and a big push that costed me three penalty strokes.  Hit the irons pretty well otherwise.

51 last night. Awful round. 2 Penalty strokes from the tee didn't help either.

Short game was ok, 15 putts, drove the ball alright, but irons...so bad...just...so so bad...

    • Day 106 - Worked on chipping/pitching. Focus was feeling the club fall to the ground as my body rotated through. 
    • Honestly, unless there's something about that rough there that makes it abnormally penal or a lost ball likely, this might be the play. I don't know how the mystrategy cone works, but per LSW, you don't use every shot for your shot zones. In that scatter plot, you have no balls in the bunker, and 1 in the penalty area. The median outcome seems to be a 50 yard pitch. Even if you aren't great from 50 yards, you're better off there than in a fairway bunker or the penalty area on the right of the fairway. It could also be a strategy you keep in your back pocket if you need to make up ground. Maybe this is a higher average score with driver, but better chance at a birdie. Maybe you are hitting your driver well and feel comfortable with letting one rip.  I get not wanting to wait and not wanting to endanger people on the tee, but in a tournament, I think I value playing for score more than waiting. I don't value that over hurting people, but you can always yell fore 😆 Only thing I would say is I'm not sure whether that cone is the best representation of the strategy (see my comment above about LSW's shot zones). To me, it looks like a 4 iron where you're aiming closer to the bunker might be the play. You have a lot of shots out to the right and only a few to the left. Obviously, I don't know where you are aiming (and this is a limitation of MyStrategy), but it seems like most of your 4 iron shots are right. You have 2 in the bunker but aiming a bit closer to the bunker won't bring more of your shots into the bunker. It does bring a few away from the penalty area on the right.  This could also depend on how severe the penalties are for missing the green. Do you need to be closer to avoid issues around the green?  It's not a bad strategy to hit 6 iron off the tee, be in the fairway, and have 150ish in. I'm probably overthinking this.
    • Day 283: Putted on my mat for a while watching an NLU video. Worked on keeping my head still primarily, and then making sure my bead is okay.
    • I do not follow amateur or Korn Ferry tour but this story might get me to pay attention. At age 15 to be as accomplished as he is makes me think we may be seeing a future star.  A story of him breaking out may help reinvigorate golf viewership. Miles Russell has a hot start, cools off but finishes with a 68 in first Korn Ferry event Miles Russell, a 15-year-old Jacksonville Beach resident, made his Korn Ferry Tour debut on...  
    • Day 8: Indoor backswing work, mostly rehearsals of takeaway. Hit some balls wtih 6-iron working on adding flow, but not too Much which I tend to do, swaying too far away from target.
