77 front 38 back 39, par 72 rate 73.4 slope 139

One of my better rounds for quite a while, could have been even lower if I didn't double the last hole.

+8 43, played pretty bad. Only hit 1 green. Couldn't find any feel for anything in the swing.

Had 6 irons shots that were thinned or fat, just no consistency at all. It might be time to put the clubs away from playing golf and just start going back to working on the 5 keys.

78 from the tips and it was cart path only, no roll whatsoever so a lot of long irons.I actually was very pleased with how I struck the ball, esp with my long irons but I putted like a blind man missing everything but 1 5 foot birdie on the last.  Must've missed 6 putts < 10 feet and 3 <  5 feet

I was only able to finish 6 holes cause of night time, but I was +3 after the 6. My best guess is the remaining three would have gone another +2. +1 if I was lucky.

78.  First time under 80 this month.  :)

Memorable because I had a stretch of four holes where every shot came off almost exactly as I wanted.  Felt great!

...Then I played +4 for the final three holes. :(

78 played 20 holes in 3 hrs walking n jogging. Kept me from focusing on all those little things like the swing and more focused on target. This what last hole looked like at end

I got nine in late yesterday. 41. Mixed bag. I hit some great shots and parred all the holes I hit in reg, but couldn't buy a birdie and didn't have any up-and-downs.

Played yesterday. Driver pretty good after a couple of off rounds with it. But the irons were only so-so and did not help  me out at all. Putting was also off. Overall, as the season winds down, I am pleased with where I am at after a three year layoff from golf. I am essentially back where I was when I stopped. Now, to work on the swing and get ready to shoot in the 70's next year! Thinking of going Stack and Tilt next year to help get to the next level.

I decided to skip golf this morning.......slept in, and then took my 11yr old son bowling from 12:15pm-3:15pm....We each bowled 12 games.  This was my best game today...

 photo 3d315aa6-f1d7-477a-acef-06456b50517c_zpsd8d10b5f.jpg

Not too shabby.....

I decide to play golf afterwards...I didn't get to the course until about 4:15pm....I figured I could play 9 with no problem because it gets dark at 6:45.  I played the front twice....I paired up with another single both times...we each had our own cart and hauled azzzzzz......and I played 18!  Gotta love it!!

Stone Canyon: Playing the front twice=72.4CR 144slope

41-37=78

Today was a success......I bowled some nice games, played decent golf, and the buckeyes won their 19th game in a row!!   I DVR'd the buckeye game and watched it after playing golf ;-)

PS...my son is actually a pretty good bowler for an 11yr old....the above game was his 2nd worst game of the day!!   he averages 170s-180s.

The little guy took me to the woodshed in this game last week.....LOL

37 on a par 36. Casual 9 holes with my wife (then she said she was tired).

Sort of a weird nine holes because I was pulling my approach shots slightly left of the greens (except one that missed 40 yards left from 125 yards...Ouch!). Hit the driver and woods just fine. Missed every green but one and left a pretty easy birdie putt an inch short on that one. Made some good par putts though with the longest about 12 feet on the green I missed by the ridiculous 40 yards.

I wanted to work on my winter time chipping techniques and at least I got a lot of practice by missing that many greens. :-D

48 over 9 holes, playing by myself on an empty course (thanks to the Patriots game I was following on my phone).

Carded my first ever eagle after holing a 30 yard pitch! That was a lot of fun, and definitely the highlight of the day. The 48 goes to show how poorly played the other holes were.

My driver was under control today, which has been a big problem for me. Only one slice, and I know exactly why. My hybrids were slicing everywhere, though.

    • "Positional" shots? How do we do that? I am using the V3 and edit on my laptop.
    • No, I'm not talking about "six footers uphill, slightly right to left." I'm going to indulge myself and talk about my favorite putts that I've ever hit. In no particular order… #9 at Whispering Woods The hole was cut middle left, and I was back right with about 40 feet to the hole, and six to eight feet of break. @DrizZzY (he'll be a semi-common theme here) was about 25' from the hole and he said "Do you need me to mark that" as his ball was really close to my line. I saw the line really, really clearly and, like the cocky jerk I am, said something like "no, leave it. I think I have to just miss your ball to make this." I saw my ball as having to pass within a few millimeters of his ball… and going in the middle. Well, I hit the putt, and as it passed his ball missing it by maybe 1.5cm… I said "ahhhhh, pulled it a little…" and… the ball fell in the left-center of the hole. I smirked at Sculley and he just said "you're such an ass." 🤣 I know I said in no particular order, and that might be true for the rest… but this one is clearly tops on my list. I saw the line so clearly, it was a touchy, delicate putt… and I knew I'd pulled it just that little bit, and my speed was perfect. His ball was fifteen feet from mine, and the putt broke 8'! Might be the greatest putt, given the call I made, I'll ever hit. #13 at Lawsonia Links I cared about a few rounds in Wisconsin on our 2021 trip (thanks again @cipher), and the 13th had gotten me a bit. I was in a bunker, and someone not NOT named @DeadMan had told me I could just chip a 7I out and still be fine… well, the 7I left me 250 in, so my 3W finished just left of the green… and about 10' below the green. I hit a decent pitch to 25' or so… this putt broke only about 2-3', but burying that one was satisfying as it kept my "no sixes in Wisconsin" streak alive. It was after this putt that someone said something like "You remember how you said you felt about Tiger at the 1997 Masters? That's how we feel right about now." It was one of the nicest things anyone has ever said to me. 😄 #14 at Whispering Woods Two putts are tied here. On one, Sculley and I hit tee shots to a back hole near the front of the green. I was a foot off the front, he was a few feet on. As we were getting back into the cart, I said "putting contest from here." He replied "Well, I lost." I made the 75-footer. The other time, the pin was front-left. I was mostly middle right, barely on the green, putting across it from about 65 feet. The putt broke a good ten feet. Sculley was short left of the hole, and for the last 20 feet of the putt, I looked at @DrizZzY and the face he made — disgust, annoyance, resignation — as the putt tracked directly toward and eventually into the hole was one of the funniest and most satisfying expressions I've ever seen on the golf course. I watched him, not my ball, for the last 15-20 feet of its roll. Sorry Sculley! #9 at Tan Tara Golf Course It was my 77th stroke in my second round of the PAT. It was a ten-footer, broke a few inches, and was destined for the bottom of the cup the instant I hit it, all to pass the PAT on the number in my first attempt. (Tan Tara is now Pendleton Creek.) #17 and 18 at The Old Course, St. Andrews On the 18th, I hit it to about four feet from about 40 yards out, up and over the Valley of Sin, from the fairway. I didn't even really consider chipping or pitching it, because who does that? Not there, not me. On #17, I had about a 15 or 18 footer, after playing a 6I from 180 that flew (on purpose) only about 90 yards, and took about 15 steps to run over humps and hollows before coming to a stop on the right portion of the hole. My caddie said "I see only one or two birdies a year on the Road Hole, so, well done." Lifetime scoring average on 17 at the Old: 3. I'll take that. Far Hole (#?), Putting Course at Streamsong Black @kpaulhus and I were screwing around. Calling out holes, and tee locations. I walked over to the fringe of the nearby green on the Black course… We putted from the fringe in case we scuffed the ground a bit. Well, I chose a putt from the fringe to the far side of the 18-hole putting course. In Google Earth, I measured the putt just now at nearly 400 feet. As in… 130 yards. I hit the stick. My ball stopped less than two feet from the hole. The other diners let out a loud shout when I smacked it, and looked way over at me and yelled out "it hit the stick!" Kyle lost that hole. And most of the other ones. 😉  Some stats: Count: 8 Shortest: 10 feet. Longest: 130 yards. Average length: ~93 feet. But, y'know… Those are my favorite putts. What are yours?
    • I have one still sitting in a box my son gave me for Christmas.  For a while, I used an app on my watch, but it drained the phone battery . We have Markers at 180 ,135 and 90M , and generally I am close enough to one of them to get a fairly rough indication of how far.  Also, for a while now ,I walk into town and back at weekends, approximately 5 mile round-trip . I’ll start a walk on my watch, and on the way home when the watch ticks over to .10/.90 etc I’ll pick a street light ,lamp post , sign , and guess how far, normally anything up to about 100 m, I have now got very good at estimating distances, especially up to 50 or 60M.
