What'd You Shoot Today?

[saevel25]

+4 40

2 bogeys, 2 doubles, 2 birdies, 3 pars.

Just inconsistent play. Driver was dead, hitting huge slices. Not sure what i was doing there.

Iron play was so-so

Long way to go.

Played an away game at a nice track (Old York Road) that is generally easier than mine but I couldn't figure out the greens. Started the first five holes even par, but then started three-putting and missing easy up-and-downs. Got a little frustrated on the back nine and let it affect the rest of my game coming home.

38-45- 83

Shot 39 42 for and 81. Some holes I played really well...others were terrible, very inconsistent day, started the back 9 even through 3 and finished with 6 over..chunked some wedges and hit some bad shots.

shot 75 in the club championship today, which was good enough for 2nd place in 1st flight.

Hit 95 today on par 71 (68.3/125) course.   The wind was swirling like crazy and it impacted numerous shots.  Putted balls didn't go straight due to wind.   Body swayed during address.  Balls on green were oscillating by itself.   Some wedge shots stopped dead in the air (a few went backwards a bit).    One of my partners (a long hitter) must have lost a 1/2 dozen balls due to severe cross winds.

Scored 91 on par 72, 71/120 course.  48 on front 9 where I average 44, but came back a bit with 43 on back 9.  Hit 10/14 fairways but it only translated to 2 GIRs.  But I had some clutch putts, 31 in total.  No OBs and finished the round with the same ball I started with.  Played with Nike PD Soft and I could not get good distance with it.   Handicap index went up to 17 but I feel I am improving.

Played in the monthly medal on saturday - shot my handicap of 19 (91) and won my first tourney! Also got a birdie on one of the par3's so won some more money for that!

Conditions were pretty difficult to play in with constant rain, so was difficutl to keep the clubs dry. Could of scored a really low score (for me), but got a +4 and +3 on 2 holes back to back, but pleased that I bounced back with a Par and a birdie.

Lukily for me, I've now qualified to play in the Medals Winners' Medal next week, so that should be fun

Yesterday I shot a 107, which is pretty bad. I got sucked into honey do hell the day before and was pretty sore, especially my back, and just wasn't making good swings for the most part. My 3W off the tee was slicing like a driver and that is normally a straight shot for me. I also fatted a good number of shots, which makes sense due to my back. If I don't make a good body turn I hit way behind the ball, and something bad will happen.... Specifically, ther were three OB penalties on the back nine and several crappy shots that undid me. I also was about a foot short on several longer putts that had the perfect line.... So close to breaking 100, and yet so seemingly far away. I'll ge there sooner or later!!!

Played six holes and was +1. Hit the driver very well for once, it has been a nightmare lately. I am still getting used to some swing changes that will take some time.

[Pushy]

Had my best round of the year with a 92 yesterday.  I was fortunate.  I found a couple of balls that could easily have been lost and hit some 10-footers I wouldn't normally make, but all in all a vast improvement over the wretched golf I've been playing most of the summer.  Hoping this may be the start of a trend.

[GangGreen]

Had an OK round (for me) yesterday with a 97 at the local course. Shot a 46 on the front (2 strokes better then I had ever scored on the front 9 before at this course). Back 9 wasn't as kind to me, started off with 4 straight bogey's (which is great for me!) but then went double, triple, double, double, double to finish with a 51. For the day, 1 par, 9 bogeys, 6 doubles, 2 triples. 3 of 14 fairways hit, 2 GIR's, 36 putts on the day. Consistency off the tee was my downfall for sure, it's a fairly short but tight course so while I rarely needed to pull out the driver, any miss off the tee usually meant a punch shot to get it back in play. Those extra strokes certainly add up in hurry for me.

Only made it through 4 holes Sat before the rain rolled in. Didn't even try yesterday. The rain in CO has been a real bummer and it appears to have ushered in a premature fall. Last year I golfed a couple times a week until Thanksgiving. I don't think that will be possible this year.

[Linthorpe]

There were gale force winds over the course this morning so I cannot be too disappointed at a 5 over handicap 89 (Par 71) I even managed a laugh on the SI1 hole when my third shot left me with an 18" tap in for par, by the time I walked up to the green the ball had rolled back another 20 feet and it took me another 3 shots to get up and down. The real bonus was that I stayed focused on every shot.

[FooFader]

A +10 46. Swing changes coming through and hit some nice shots but also some very poor shots. 3 lost balls didn't help me at all today.

[MULVn8tor]

81 on a 70.2/130. Hit my irons really well and putted great just had a slow start. Bogey birdie bogey bogey bogey. And had 3 doubles!! Could have been a great round in cold weather. 4*C

[Shindig]

I'm somehow still optimistic after a 98 today.

[divot dave]

shot a 94 yesterday. an all around average score for me, with the putter being rather cold. I was pleased with my ball striking tee to green... a couple of flubs here and there... the biggest kicker for me was standing on the 18th tee - a shot with a lot of water on the right - on the verge of accomplishing one of my goals for the year... namely not losing a ball for an entire round... then dunking consecutive balls in the drink...

Played like shit today

+6, 42,

4 Bogeys, 1 Double, 4 pars

The driver is all over the place, well its going right. It starts off straight to a slight push with a nice slice on the end

Irons are inconsistent in contact. Think i need more weight forward, i tried that and i had better success towards the end of the round hitting some desirable iron shots.

Wedge game is just crap, non confidence at all. I just have no confidence that i can hit the ball with any authority. They either come out hit heavy or the club just slides under the ball, hitting a near flop shot, no clue whats going on. Couple that I am playing golf like a smart monkey right now, things are not in a good place.

Played nine holes of match play today just for fun against my wife and both of us hit from the Senior tees (of course I only hit irons off of the tee).

I had 5 pars 2 birdies and 2 bogeys and she tied me on one of the bogey holes. She did scare me on a couple of holes where she had a short par putt before I hit my second shot but I always hit it inside of her ball (fairly unusual for me to be that accurate with short irons).

The greens weren't mowed today because the course was not open and I think it cost us both a few putts that came up short (so that was a wash).

One of my bogeys was on a par 3 where I hit my best iron shot of the day but had the wrong club and hit it right over the flag stick, and the green, and didn't get up and down. I had never hit a shot from that tee box before.

The other bogey was on a par five where I hooked the daylights out of a 4 iron off of the tee and hit a tree. Then hooked the daylights out of a 3 iron and hit another tree. Left me with a 200 yard shot that required about 80 yards of hook but I pulled it a bit and it caught part of a branch and came up 50 yards short of the green. Hit my only bad wedge shot of the day that only made it to the front edge and I lipped out the 20 foot putt.

Fun and peaceful day having the course to ourselves.
