Thank you for the feedback on the book. It's appreciated.

I've given you the "broke 80" award. You have holes in one? I'll grant it, though in the future to help out (I like to add a little detail on some awards), link to your post here when you mention that it's covered somewhere else, if you can.

Thanks for the awards. I posted my descriptions of my holes in one on page 6 of the "Your Golf Game - The Uplifting Topic". I'm really not sure how to link a topic. I'm not a forum guy. This is the only forum I visit and/or contribute to. 

 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Not really sure how this works, but since I plan on participating more on this forum in 2019, some of my accomplishments in 2018 were a hole-in-one on Mothers Day, shooting 68, my lowest score ever, on June 1. My son and I also won the Member/Guest Tournament at our club in 2017.

I don't know enough about the 68 to say what award that warrants (especially with a 10.9 listed index), but I gave you the Hole in One award and the Tournament Winner award. Congratulations!

Thanks. Not sure what you want for the 68. I posted it originally in the "What did you shoot today" thread, back when it happened.

Had the game of my life this morning. Shot my age - 68.

Par   4   4   4   3   5   4   5   3   4   36     4   3   5   3   4   4   5   4   4    36   72

6 birdies, 10 pars, 2 bogeys

I'm a happy golfer!!!

Course is 5477 yards, 66.5/111.

Thanks again for the others.

Just something like what you did. I didn't know what par was, etc. I gave you "broke par" and "shot your age" awards.

Thank you. I didn't know there was a 'shot your age' award. I think I was most proud of that when I did it.

I’m slowly working my way round the site, so here is some of my 2018. Two eagles in the same round, broke par, bought and read ( and enjoyed) LSW

Broke 80 today for the first time.  Been close a couple of times with an 80 and lots of low 80's but today it all clicked and I shot 77.

    • Question for the group. The course I normally play at has 27 holes - 3 9s that they use to for 18 in the various combinations. Is it okay to declare* if I’m playing front or back when I play 9 on this course? I’m figuring I need to declare before I play a shot. *meaning just say to myself that this is the back 9. Curious what people think. Of course, my only holes left are 13 and 17, so I’m going to declare the back 9 for the rest of the year. Probably only one or two more rounds though. 
    • This is my opinion as well. I would love to see the LPGA take the lead on this.    This.
    • I agree in general. The one way in which the viewer will notice the pace of play is just that "it's been an hour and Nelly Korda or Scottie Scheffler have only played four holes." Or if for some reason they show a lot of shots of players just standing around when they could be showing golf shots. But I think Andy Johnson said it most recently/best, playing fast is a skill, too. I would love for pro golfers to play faster. You'd see the players you want to see hit more shots in the same time than they do now. So I don't disagree with the pace of play stuff, and hope they can find ways to do it. Heck, the LPGA should leap at the chance to differentiate itself in this way, IMO. So: I stand by what I said in that the TV viewer really doesn't notice much about pace of play. It's rare when they do. I support increasing the pace of play wholeheartedly. But my top five reasons don't include TV ratings or viewership.
    • I don't think the viewer at home can pick up on pace of play, unless the announcers mention something. The telecast has the luxury of bouncing from player to player, which ensures we the viewer always have something to watch.  I think we would notice pace of play if the camera just followed one golfer for an entire round. Or  You were actually golfing behind the slow group Or  The slow group is the last to only group left to finish the tournament.  I like the idea of having a person carrying a digital clock, following each golfer. When the golfer gets to the ball and the group in front of them has cleared they have 60 seconds or they get a penalty stroke. Maybe a second violation is a 2 stroke penalty.  Or as I have said before, every golfer wears a shock collar!!!!! at 1 min 1 second that golfer if going to drop. It will take them a good 30 second to recover, leaving them with another 30 seconds to hit the shot. The course would be littered with golfers just convulsing on fair way from an endless cycle of shocks because they cant seem to hit their ball and keep pace of play. 
    • This isn't the same thing.  This is entirely a time of year thing. Not a trend.  This is the COVID year.  There are many who think the Masters viewership was actually way up. The 2024 ratings being down is only for CBS televisions. It doesn't include anyone (including me) who watched it online.
