I didn't. Was supposed to, but the starter went out on the daughters car. Tee time 8:52 AM tomorrow though. Please let me not suck.

100 @ Tunica National. First time there and used new irons (took plastic off in parking lot). Putting as usual was my killer. Other than that happy with the rest of my game.

Shot a 5, even through one hole and then it rained. We waited an hour but they never let us back out so rain check. Wasn't 3 miles away before skies cleared and sun came back.

Shot a 91 with four three-putts and two stroke-and-distance penalties. My course handicap is 22 so I guess I can't complain too much.  But damn, that's a lot of fat that could be cut out.

84 - 39/45

Great front nine - terrible back nine with two triple bogeys - bad bunker play/putting and a little but of bad luck

Lessons are certainly helping - my misses are narrower.

Need to book a putting lesson and work on my bunker play - losing 5-6 shots a round in these areas

Played in our bank holiday stableford long game was pretty good, short game and putting was terrible finished on 30 points

Last three rounds this past week: 44(+8) 39(+3) and 35(+1) all on different nines. Putting has been hot except for on that 44. Really impressed with those second two nines and hope to continue my 30's streak.

Played my first round of 18 today at the Mount Prospect golf club. I didn't drive the ball well at all., I was slicing and shanking the ball on just about every hole. It wasn't all bad, I gave me to work on my irons out of the rough and around trees. I shot a 129 on a par 71.

47-42 for a 90. Pretty easy course though. Definitely hitting a little better. Putter actually let me down today.

50 on Wednesday, 82 on Friday, 81 on Saturday, 89 and 39 on Sunday.

Both the 50 and the 89, I was wearing my glasses instead of contacts.  I tend to focus on the distortion caused by the lenses in my peripheral vision which makes the ground look closer, so I choke up on the club, and of course.... I revert to my normal posture during the swing, so I hit a lot of thins on those two rounds.

Still, it's a pretty consistant start for me this year.

Course couldn't have been that easy if a 47-42 is a 90. Heck it adds it's own stroke. Shot 88, 90 and 91 at myrtle beach legends course last couple of days. Back/white tees. 84 today on easy course from whites/fronts. 40-44. Fell apart on the back. Got tired I think. 4 rounds, 2 captain choice rounds and 7 range sessions in 4 days probably does that to you. On another note 260+ off the tee and hitting 80+% of FIRs, I probably shouldn't play the fronts but when the group I play with pays for my golf in skins plus an extra $10 it's hard to want to move back.

Played 27 holes today Played nine waiting on my boss to get there shot a 41 front. Then 43 front/47 back very happy with my ball striking they just punched the greens and didnt mow them until half way through the round balls hopped all over the place

Went out golfing with my dad. Shot 92, 72.2 CR, 127 Slope, 6700 yards.

Just played like utter trash. Horrible. Have NO control over the driver. Contact felt horrible. Short game was terrible.

Whoops. 47-43. I think my brain was a tad fried. ;-)

Shot an 88 today. Amazingly as I sucked. Need to figure out the iron game. It either shoes up or it doesn't. Today it didn't. Doesn't help that I have a new swing every weekend.

Shot 84 on Saturday.  Considering I putted terribly (three three putts, no made putts outside of like three feet) and had only two good drives (two!) I'd say I'm getting into form.  I just need to straighten this driver out.  Bought a new one and that has added distance and straightened things out a bit but not enough.

Three putted 18 to shoot 40 on the back.  That's annoying.

85 on Sunday at a beautiful course I had never played before!

86 on Monday at a beautiful course I had played many times before

both days it was a tale of 2 nines.   Sunday was 40 front 45 back, monday was 46 front 40 back.

Im happy with both days.  I had many birdie chances just could nail the putts.  Parred many and gave many back with a couple blow up holes.  But for my level of play... that's ok. lol
