What'd You Shoot Today?

Recommended Posts

Didn't think I'd say this this year, but a disappointing 81. My game off the tee cost me every missed shot today. It wasn't horrible enough to cost me penalty strokes but still penalized me enough to lead to two double bogeys. Only one birdie though, was able to stick most of my wedges on to let me one or two putt, I think I only had two three putts all day so I was pretty happy with everything but my driver.

For a 15 handicap, not sure how an 81 can be disappointing...

I also shot an 81 today, with one double and two 3 putts, unfortunately one of them was a 3 putt par on a par 5.

 I know. My handicap generally has come from big numbers, but still deserved. I am trending down but it's still frustrating to see one part of my game be so bad compared to everything else that felt so good today. I truly feel if my driver was as good as it could be I would've broken 80 pretty comfortably. To be that close with so many missed opportunities is painful yet encouraging. 

 

Edit,  this was also on a par 70 course, so 11 over is still good, but not like a 9 over round.

70 (-2) at my home course.

Really good scoring streak: 74,70,70,73,75,71,70: I`m -1 between the last 7 rounds. 6550, rating 71,2. Par 72. My tee to green game has improved a lot over 2017. Putting is still bad, but working on it.

Shot 96 on a short course. This is probably good golf for me. I kept everything in play after the 5th. Other than a single blowup hole (5 over on a par 5) and a couple typical missed short putts, I thought I played well within my ability. Irons were not quite as accurate as last week, but still very solid with good distance control on both approaches and layups.

Nothing really awful (nothing worse than a double), but always seemed a shot away from real quality. It was different things from hole to hole. Couple bad putts, one lousy drive, a few lousy approach shots and some wedges that lacked any art. None the less, my shots are finishing closer to the hole. I've made progress in sorting the shank issues I had earlier in the year.

I had to use a Group Golfer that was about to expire so I drove to Timber Ridge (70.1/135) in East Lansing.  It was a new course to me.   I paired with a twosome and we had a great time.   I shot a 44/46 but felt like I was playing pretty good.    I still need to work on speed on faster greens.  The greens were significantly faster than my home course and I guess I need that practice.   Overall a great day to be on the golf course.

79, 42 front 37 back at Raintree

Just inconsistent off the tee and into the green. Swing got a bit long and out of control. Greens were super slow.

41/38 for 79 unremarkable other than it was my first 18 holes of 2017 after struggling with injury and limiting it to 9 holes for the last several months. My distance is coming back I was outdriving the guys I got paired up with using a 3w most of the day. They weren't very good but still I owned the box all but one hole when a guy made a lucky birdie putt to my par.

No doubles for me and just one silly 3 putt. Left strokes out there for sure, looking back I think I made 5 easily preventable bogeys, two after forcing a shot in the wind as well as the 3 putt. We played 9-13 on the edge of a microburst that caused significant damage just a few miles south of the course.

Best round of 2017, to date.  4.1 differential.  Couldn't cash in on the birdie opportunities but made some nice lags and up & down pars so it all balanced out at 76.

There were a couple GIR's that barely merited the GIR designation, I was so far from the hole.  Somehow I got the first close enough to 2 putt.

    • I agree with @klineka & @DaveP043 above.  When a new member first joins the club they cold be told that they are not eligible for tournaments until they have an established HCP.  As you said, it only takes a few rounds.  If they do not to post HCP that was their choice and choices have consequences.  If playing in the tournament is important to them then they should step up and establish an HCP.  Maybe they miss the 1st tournament, is that a real big deal?  And if it is a "Big Deal" to them then they had the opportunity to establish the HCP. As for not knowing how to report for HCP I assume your club has a pro and they should be able to assist in getting the scores reported and I suspect out of state courses may also have staff that can assist if asked.
    • Wordle 1,013 2/6 🟨⬜⬜🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Thought I was gonna be a big shot today...  🙂    Nice Job!
    • Cool here's my tweak, "If a player’s ball lies in the general area and there is interference from exposed tree roots or exposed rocks that are in the fairway or 1 club length from the fairway the tree roots and exposed rocks are treated as ground under repair. The player may take free relief under Rule 16.1b.[But relief is not allowed if the tree roots only interfere with the player’s stance.]
    • I would never do the extended warranty on the $50 slow cooker.  I also routinely reject the extended service plans on those toys we buy for the grand-kids.  I do consider them on higher cost items and will be more likely to get one if the product has a lot of "Electronic Tech" that is often the problem longer-term.  I also consider my intended length of ownership & usage.  If my thought is it would get replaced in 2-3 years then why bother but if I hope to use it for 10 years then more likely to get the extension. I did buy out a lease about a year ago.  Just prior to the lease end date the tablet locked up and would not function.  I got it repaired under the initial warranty and would not have bought it out if they had not been able to fix it since IMO once electronic issues start in a car they can be hard to track down & fix.  They did fix it but when I bought out the lease I paid up for the extended warranty the would cover electronic failures because my intent is to keep that car for another 8-10 years and I just do not trust the electronics to last.  Last week the touch screen went black and was unresponsive.  It reset on the 2nd time I restarted the car but that is exactly how the last malfunction started.  I fully expect to have a claim on that on repair under the extended warranty.  I do not recall the exact cost to fix last time since I did not pay it but I think it was @ $700-$800 and I suspect that will be higher next time.
    • Have you looked at Model Local Rule F-9 Relief from Tree Roots in or Close to Fairway?  You could extend this to cover exposed rocks.  The rule is recommended to be used only for areas relatively near the fairway, a player who hits a shot 20 yards in the woods doesn't really deserve relief.   Players can always take Unplayable Ball relief, they're not required to play it from a rock or a root.  Of course, they hate to take the penalty stroke too.
