I played there once. It actually wasn't all that bad. Greens were ok. Layout is boring as hell, though. 

Yup. There isn't much of a layout but for 10 bucks (9 holes), its a steal.

How about Pakachoag ? lol

That is in Auburn, MA, my wife's home town. Robert Goddard launched the first liquid fueled rocket there. There is a golf course there too. The course in the Worcester area are hilly, so plan accordingly! Lot's of side hill lies at Pakachoag.

Lol. I have played at a couple of courses in and around Worcester.

Greenhill, Kettlebrook, Wachusett, Juniper, Leicester, Pakachoag, Clearview and Cyprian keys (lost 5 balls there lol). These are what I discovered so far in the last year. I'm sure there are many more.

Yeah. Greenhill and Pakacgoag have some steep slopes. Esp the hole 5 (par 5) at Pakachoag and back 9 greenhill.

I have to got to Methuen this weekend, how do I say that wrong?

I have played Juniper and Cyprian.  I like those courses.  Pretty nice.

At Juniper they have 2 courses.  Riverside is nice, wide open and a little easier than Riverside.  That is a very tight course.

I've played both Juniper and Cyprian Keyes. Like them a lot. I tend to prefer Riverside at Juniper, but you can't really go wrong at Lakeside either.

Yup. Fairways are pretty narrow at Lakeside. But Cyprian Keyes is quite challenging for me, target golf lol.

    • First (12 holes) round in a year, maybe the third round in five years. After prioritizing family for a long time, I’m ready to play more golf. We moved back where I grew up and started playing golf. The course is close, but only six holes and pretty short, so the longest club I bring is a 4i. It is very undulated, with a lot of elevation changes and 4/6 greens are blind shots. The long game was relatively good (relative to my game and swing). Got things to work on, but the current state is manageable. One OB. Wedges and short game was atrocious. Chunking like I was making a garden. On the worst hole I chunked a 58° approach, then chunked three chips in a row… Time to search up some chipping topics and start practicing. I’ll take this over bad long game and good short game. The short game is easier to fix. Shot a net +17(!), gross +23, over 12 holes.
    • Day 118 - Spent some time working on the full swing. Need to film some swings for Evolvr tomorrow. 
    • playing with cleveland hybrid irons have friends that use hybrids anyone using hybrid irons or hybrids would appreciate fwwdback
    • I dont know if I really have a favorite, but there are two that have stuck in my mind for a very long time. #15 at Erie Golf course during the Finals of the EDGA Matchplay. Was up early and then lost a few holes in row so the match was close again. My opponent had a short putt for birdie. I hit past hole high, but 35 feet right. I drained the putt and looked over at my opponent who was in disbelief.   #8 at Whispering Woods during another year of the EDGA Matchplay. Was playing a very cocky opponent who made sure to mention on the first tee how many times he won the club championship at this course. I hammered this 30 footer that clanked off of the pin and dropped. My opponent was disgusted and that made me weirdly happy. I went on to win 5&3 or something like that, so that entire day has stayed in my memory. 
    • Day 20: Did 30 minutes after getting home from work, before kid's baseball practice. This session was piecing out the new hip move in transition, doing 2-3 rehearsals from the top, and then hitting a ball from between P5/P6. Did another 45 minutes after baseball practice and dinner. Did 30 more minutes of what I did earlier, and then about 15 minutes of full swings trying to incorporate athletically.
