What'd You Shoot Today?


Recommended Posts

Shot a 41 over 8 holes in my golf league match today at Needwood golf course.  We won the match 3 and 2, and it started to rain so we skipped the last hole.  The league matches are 2v2 best ball for 9 holes.  Today's match was more about the other team not playing very well.  I don't think they won a hole.

I played pretty well.  I chipped really well.  I have to get more consistent with the driver.  I had a few really nice drives, but also a couple low, hooking pulls.

Shot a +11 82 (42-40) today at my home course, Georgia National.

4/14 Fairways

4/18 GIR

10/18 nGIR

25 putts

A really weird day. I had two double bogeys; the first one was just stupidity, but the second one I got screwed. It's 275 to the water on the fifteenth hole, a little downhill, so I hit a 3-hybrid and flew the damn thing in the water. I usually hit it like 240. Never in my life.

But it was fun. Played by myself. Weather is beautiful here in Georgia.

I shot 49 on the back 9 of my new home course Mayan Golf Guatemala. Rained yesterday but the course soaked it well and the morning was beautiful. Still getting used to the course and made some rookie mistakes, plus I didn't swing as good from the rough. Happy to have a new home course though with the view of the volcano.

40 (+4) 5 bogies 1 birdie 4 pars

Just played nine holes this afternoon and didn't do to well. I ended up shooting a 46 after three putting some holes. It's worse to because must of the holes I three putted I was on gir.

77 par 72 rate 69.1 slope 121

Sometimes I feel the need to tee it up on an easier course just to regain a little confidence, my home course forward tees are 131 slope.

81 at my home course. Par 70, rating 72.5, slope 138.

I really want to break 80 by the end of the summer.


Brookside Course 2 (69.1/121): 42/44 (2 lateral penalties on the back 9), 7 FW, 3 Gir, Drives 231 yards, 1 sand save out of 3. I hit through a tree for a 120 yard drive. plus a 200 yard slice on the first tee. 271 longest drive, 120 shortest through a tree. Drives were shorter today probably because of the damp conditions. Golflogix stats for driving distance is 243 yards. out of 42 swings. 8i is about 152 yards. PW is about 121 yards.

Bummer that I seem to be stabilizing right at a 15 handicap. We'll see how my new swing ferments. I'm hoping into wine and not vinegar again.

Putting was not so great, but only cost me a couple strokes. I think I need to start practicing these.

I was trying out the lead knee facing more forward, and found myself bending the knee too much a few times and ended up slicing/fading a lot of shots. Pulls were caused by my shoulder position. Just needed to remind myself to hold the club to my chest to align myself. It does feel better and more natural.

+4 39 today. And I played like shit, which is a good sign, I guess? No lost balls or strokes thrown away; just missing the greens left. Chipping is a solid B- right now, or else I would've shot par. Putting is off the charts. Distance control on long lags is money. Good times.

73 at a 72.1/130.... struck the ball well off the tee but putted pathetically. Had 3 three putts. I was happy with the round though.

Played a quick 9, shot a 42. I felt really good with my irons, though. I was hitting with a more inside-out path with them, which is something I've been really aiming for lately. My distances were a bit off since I was taking everything a bit easier (should've gone up a club), but I was quite consistent with my ballstriking. My short game still needs a lot of work; I didn't really give myself a great chance at all to save par except for one hole.

    • Yes, this is the 2024 model. DSG ruined what Callaway perfected for most golfers. A darn good 3 piece golf ball. Now it's a 2 piece cheap ball. To me a 2 piece ball is fine and a 3 piece budget ball is better. I prefer a slightly harder ball, something in the 65-75 compression range that will perform similar to the old Gamer. The Titleist tru-feel is pretty good. I planned on giving Maxfli straightfli a try.
    • Is that the current generation Gamer? Another old standby for a firm and inexpensive ball is Pinnacle.  There are two models, the Rush and the Soft, but I don’t know what compression they are.
    • Good advice, but according to DSG website it is a 45 compression ball. My current ball is the Top-flite Gamer at 70. 45 is too low for me to go.
    • The 3 piece Maxfli Trifli is 2 dozen for $35.  The Trifli does not feel as soft as the Maxfli Softfli, which is why I like it. Other options would be one of the Srixons, which have a buy 2 get 1 free offer.
    • I have been carrying a 7 wood more often this year.  It’s especially handy if you have a downhill lie to an uphill green.  It’s also handy if the rough on the course is deep.
