It was a disastrous 85 today. Crazy day. 47 front 9, couldn't hit the ball at all, followed by a 38 for the back 9. I didn't notice any change in the swing. Why do we have these kinds of rounds?

Congratulations on a fine round.  Are you sure you are a 16 handicap?

Played this evening. Shared s cart with a tourist visiting the area. 

Shot a 39, which I am quite proud of, thank you very much. What's even better, my shoulder feels pretty good too.

6 pars, and 3 bogey 1s. Made some putts, and stayed in the fairways for the most part. 

The tourist, well he carded a 32. He appeared to be the complete package. Way long off the tee, 8 GIRs, and pretty good putter to boot. It was a pleasure watching his game.

Had the tale of two nines yesterday at Springfield.

Jumped out of the car, rushed to the tee.   Played like crap on the front, with two doubles and 1 birdie.

Front 9 - 5 5 4 3 6 4 3 6 4 for a smooth 40.   There went the no-sixes round quickly.

Back 9 - 5 3 3 2 4 5 5 4 4 - 35  played much better on the back when I had 3 birdies in a row (was actually very close to having 5 in a row) and even hit the flag on 17, although the ball bounced 25 feet away on the ricochet. Hit 8 greens on the back, only blemish was three-putt on 16 from 50 feet and bogey from missing the 10th green.

40-35-75 

So hit 13 greens, 4 birdies, 2 doubles and 1 three-putt bogey.

I shot 89 yesterday...on my par 65 home course 😞 Highest number of pars, GIRS, and fairways hit in a round. However, 2 quads and 3 triples on other holes make for a bad day. I have never played so well and scored so poorly due to just a few REALLY bad shots (shanks). Most frustrating part? I played with a buddy who hasn't golfed in OVER 2 years....he shot 84.

76 in match play. Lost on the last hole. I was playing a 1 handicap without any handicap strokes, so I'm really pleased I pushed it to 18.

93 today. Started hitting some decent shots, but I had too many doubles and higher. I started Bogey, Bogey, Birdie, Par, but followed that with a Quadriple, and Triple.

May 14th, had a chance for the 60s and let it get away. Had it 5 under and bogeyed 3 of the last 5 holes to shoot 70, and one of the holes is a gift par 5. Still pleased but dangit man-

70, 72, 70 and 72 this week. 

Didn't give myself a lot of great looks at birdies but hit a lot of greens and putted well. Almost had a bogey-free round yesterday but mis-clubbed on 18, hit it short in the bunker and lipped out the 4-footer. Unfortunately bogeyed 18 all four rounds, each one was different, so I'm expecting a good run on 18 in the next couple months....law of averages 😉

played 36 holes yesterday.

37-38-75  in the morning, 2 birdies and no sixes and then another 37-38-75 in the afternoon with 4 birdies and one double.  it seems like right now, all of my misses are in spots that leave me and easy up and down.  Hoping it stays like that for our President's Cup tournament which starts on Saturday.

    • Day 27 - 2026-01-16 Played 18 with some of the usual "too many voices" going on when I'm working on swing stuff. Fun to get out in great bay area winter weather.
    • I know one recent college grad who's trying the same thing.  This guy was a Division III All-American, went on to play one year at Division I LSU, and is not working hard.  He won the Gulf States Open, a pro event, and made it to the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour School late in the fall.  And didn't make the cut to get to the final stage.  I won't talk about swing or play stuff, but I believe there are a couple of things that are essential.  Obviously, talent, and drive, or work ethic.   I can't tell you how to do it, but you HAVE to get through it.  Golf is going to be your life, and it takes lots of work. Two more things that are really critical.  You'll need the facility to be able to practice.  My young friend stayed in Baton Rouge, as a past player on the team he can still use the LSU practice facilities.  And money.  Its unlikely you'll be able to work a full-time job and practice the way you will need to.  You'll probably need backing, from a parent, from a consortium of friends or club members., something to support you. Good luck, its not an easy path, but anything is possible.  Another young man from our area, Mike Brennan, just won for the first time on the "big" PGA Tour.    
    • No one in the world is as smart as Phil thinks he is.
    • Get more comfortable with being uncomfortable. If you don’t like practicing then give up now. You don’t have the passion to become a pro. Unless that mentality changes you won’t do well under stressful situations.    Call the PGA Tour and ask. They probably have resources available.
