2 shots from yesterday:

9th hole: Par 4 320 yds wind in face, drove the green, 3 putt

18th hole: strangest lie I ever encountered yet. The ball was on the top of a severe slopping trap, I was barely able to balance myself standing on the slope with my calf muscles burning. The ball was actually above my waistline and my grip was actually half way down the club so I really could not even use the grip on the club.

Had about 15 yds to the cup and knocked it within 10 ft then 2 putts for a par.

I slam dunked a 64* wedge for birdie from the fringe of a shortsided pin 41 feet away. Then I went to the next tee, a 157 par 3 and hit a 7 iron to 10" dead online with the center of the hole. Birdied that of course.

Bombed a 3 wood to ~185 out on a short par 5. Hit a 7 iron solid to 10' pin high. Missed eagle, but it was the middle birdie on my 3 in a row to end the round.

i hit a good drive on this junk course, par 5
hit a 225 yard 3 wood, landed it about one foot away from the green
and ended up with a 7
couldnt land a put all day
ended up shooting a disapointing 44
if i could have putted i would have easily shot under 40

Last week I was about 120 out on a 390 par 4... hit a wedge, flys in the hole but it pops out and kicks about 20 feet and onto the fringe! So I get up there, all mad that I hit a great shot and end up where I am... but sure enough, I chiped it in for birdie. Haha

On 18 the other day needing par to salvage a round. Par 4. Too much draw on the driver, goes long and left. stops just before the knee-high rough and tucks in behind a row of trees making my shot to the green blind. I'm 165 out with a decent lie in thick grass. Blast out a strong 6 iron, figuring the rough would take off some distance - wrong. Fly the green. Ball lands three inches from the bunker, but I'm standing well in the bunker, with the ball in the grass above my feet, pitching to a down hill pin with 15 feet to work with. I hit the shot by instinct only - all creativity, not a shot i practice all that often. flopped it up and rolled it six feet by. then smoothly rolled in the par putt. saved 79 at a tough course.

Second shot. Par 5. Dog leg left. 175-ish out. Just in the right hard pan. Tall trees just overhanging. 6 iron, straight up, thru the edge of the over hanging trees. Stayed in the air forever. Came down JUST over the elevated right trap. Kicked left, rolled the entire width of the green, TWO FEET under the hole!!!

Made the Eagle putt!!!

Boooo Yaaaa!!!

Awesome!

I had two holes-in-one within two months of each other when I was 17. I'm 33 now and haven't had one since...

I chipped in for eagle on a par 4. Not that great except my feet were in a bunker, the ball was in the ruff, level with my knees, and it was an uphill sidehill lie...

I was pretty pumped!

Hit a choke down 9 iron from 120 yds to 18 inches for par. I had to chip out of the woods after the tee shot so I thought bogey was as good as I was going to do!

well I know I am a small fish in a big pond, but I just made par on a hole for the first time...on the par 3 course I have been playing at. ;)

Don't laugh... I picked this game up about a month ago and have been hitting the par 3s a lot while I work on my low irons and driver at the range. Scores started out in the 50s, then jumped to low 40's, now I'm in the high 30's.

Baby steps. What a frustrating but rewarding sport this is. :)

    • Day 302: mirror work today. Worked on feels to get my hips open more. 
    • Day 54. Was in a good place last week. Yesterday’s round killed my confidence.  Full swing practice trying to get back to where I was but struggled with being tired and tense. Back to basics tomorrow. 
    • Welcome back! Evolvr.com? I don't use the full extreme end of it, and that's probably dipped to 75% or so nowadays. But I use the sole more than I don't, yeah. Also… it's good to learn this shot: Middle up. Not generally outside your feet in either direction. I generally have it slightly forward of center, yeah. Short version: tip your upper body in the direction of the slope. Look at the GC3. You can find them for really good prices sometimes.
    • 3 rainouts in a row….that’s SAD Sorry, I’m in MI or I would take you up on a round.
