Par bogie par par double par triple birdie par bogie par par and so on. I was either throwing darts or pushing or hooking the heck out of things. Dialing in the distances of the new iron threw me off a time or two, I'm a club to a club and a half longer with the new sticks. Grabbing my SW when I wanted my 9i was another fubar. Almost did it a second time too. 

Beats working though......

I thought this topic was about my game lately.  I would shoot +1 or +2 on the front then +8 to +14 on the back or vice versa.  Drives me nuts!

You noticed before you hit the shot though, right?  If not ...... how????

Had a similar round today as well.  Shot +9 with 4 double bogeys. :P

But yes, it beats work, for sure!!

im now questioning if I should be behind the wheel of a vehicle

Oddly enough, my schizophrenic rounds usually seem to "organize" themselves by nines. Already this year, with only three full rounds played, I have a round where I shot 42 (+6) on the front, and even par 35 on the back for a gross 77. That's a net 64-65 for me. Gotta say I love it, but have no explanation for it, other than I "found my swing" on the back nine.

I wish the courses would open around here so I could see if I have this schizophrenia stuff you talk about.  I have heard the ranges will be opening this weekend, with the courses to follow in the next week or so.  One of my last rounds last year was like that though.  I was playing a practice round for a 3 day tournament with my boss and 3 others.  Was playing a tough country club course.  The practice round I was +1 thru 16 holes.  Had been hitting the driver beautifully all day until I got to the 17th hole.  Pulled it a bit further left than I wanted to and it hit a hill and rolled into the hazard, finished with a double.  18 same thing, hit a little bit more of a draw than I wanted and it bounced down the hill and into the hazard...another double.  Finished with a 77 which wasn't terrible considering the two doubles.  Tournament started and I fired a 84-87...Not sure where those rounds came from, but I hadn't shot in the 80s in over a year.

I'm kind of amazed you didn't notice the difference in lofts of the two clubs..

Mine have a tendency to organize themselves in the shape of a mushroom cloud.  i.e..  Par, bogey, bogey, par, pay, triple,double, quad, par, par, bogey, bogey.

    • Day 159 1-19 Flow drill while attempting to add arch in wrist on downswing. Not where it needs to be but felt good working on swing flow. 
    • Day 1 (19 Jan 26) - after a week lay-off due to travels, felt great to get in some drills in the backyard today.  Started with lead arm only short pitches focused on squared face and light divot post ball.  Haven’t done this in a while and it showed, with some skulls and slices.  Settled into easy flighted balls - wrapped up with standard two handed swings.  Good restart to the daily drills. 
    • That depends what you do within those two.  Are they your only options?   Check out Fit for Golf if you get a moment.  It's linked on the sidebar;  I did it for two years, stopped for a really bad reason, and I plan to get back to it soon.   Mike Carroll also has a great free podcast about a lot of topics in golf fitness. 
    • Day 19, 1/19.  Finished work in time to spend 25 minutes hitting balls (hit 15) indoors, off a mat, into the net.  Usual focus.    
    • Day 30 - 2026-01-19 Got 10 minutes in on the mat / net working on exagerrating movements I'm working on. And grip. Also worked with my friendly AI to summarize key negative tendencies I have so that I can build a personal checklist to follow. Will do more mirror work tonight.
