Day 270 5-30 Lower arm more infront, not so stuck to side. Getting chest through with some speed. -
A nice consistent road is just as satisfying as a round with a few outstanding shots. nice round. -

I shot an 85 yesterday without any shots that really stood out as spectacular to me. On the first nine, the highest SG shots that didn't originate on a tee were a 22 yard chip from the rough to 6' and sinking a 10' putt (not the same hole). On the second nine, driver 4-hybrid to 17' on a 421 yard par-4 was pretty cool. Sinking a 15' putt for par on the 420-yard par-4 15th was my largest SG of the day (0.98 vs 10 hcp), and that one goes on my acting resume because when it went in, I acted like I wasn't surprised I made the putt. I'm a lot happier with that round than this post indicates. It shows I can play to a pretty good score (a 10-11 handicap shooting 85 on a 70.9 / 125 / 6400 yard is a good performance I think) without having to work miracles. -
Shot an 85 yesterday (posts as an 84). 40 first nine, 45 second nine. Only two holes worse than bogey: a double on a par-4 and a totally preventable snowman on the par-5 18th (the one where Arnold Palmer once made a 12 during the L.A. Open). Bogeyed every par-3. Par-5s were 6-6-8 (there are only three). Lots of work to improve upon these. Especially performance on 18: wild tee shot, great recovery, good third I thought, but it somehow drew against a left-to-right wind and finished barely in bounds, where all I could do is smack with a putter towards the green. And I did, leaving it in the rough for my fifth. Chip way past the hole, putt 5' past the cup, a miss, and a tap in to complete the snowman. Played the par-4s in a cumulative 5-over (there are eleven), one of which was a double. Strokes gained: par-4s during the round gains 2.16 over the 5-handicap baseline, that's pretty cool. No birdies. Only 5 GIR, 7 near-GIR, and one green hit on a full swing that wasn't for GIR (par-4 9th, drive, recovery, sand wedge to the green).
