DeArmond playing on the Web.Com tour in Florida, carded a 17 on one hole, while trying to carry a water hazard. Finished up his round with a 91. 

The high score is something, but not that important. What he said afterwards is what is important in my book. 

When playing golf, after a true scoring disaster takes place, the golfer should not get mad, throw clubs, or quit. The golfer should just take it in stride, laugh, and have fun with the rest of the round.

I like this guy.

In sports, "splash" can represent many things. In basketball, it might mean Steph Curry has gone off with another barrage of threes. In golf, at least...

I don't know much else you could do after that. That is pretty embarrassing. I struggle with how 17 is possible on any hole.

I get good sportsmanship, but I don't really get being cool with that much suck.  It's ok to be mad as long as you restrain yourself and don't go full on Sergio/Tasmanian Devil.

He said it was an out of body experience for him. I am sure that's what it turned into after he rinsed the 3rd or the 4th ball. At that moment the normal risk assessment/damage control/shot/club selection process that a pro would expect to go through takes a hike.

I am sure he was dying inside but put up a brave face.

    • In August, I am playing the World Am in Myrtle Beach. I do not know which courses yet, but should be a blast. Aside from that, those are the only golf trip plans, unless I play while on vacation in Destin in June.
    • Even on a perfect center hit I was receiving at most 1.48 smash factor. 10 days ago on the warming up for a round my Driver made a weird sound, I checked the bottom and it was cracked. Don't know for how long it was cracked but at least this time the crack was easy visible. Maybe it was already cracked before but with a more subtle crack?.. don't know. I'm waiting for TaylorMade to approve the warranty and send me a new head. I was using the Stealth Plus, I will take the opportunity and upgrade it to the Qi10 LS paying the difference.  On Sunday with my old Titleist 915 and softer balls I was reaching 1.5, even 1.51 on center hits. Test didn't went well. Only gained 2..3 miles, not worth pursuing. Figured out that with a ball and with a target, my path was way to in to out with this new idea, so in order to move the club in the correct path I needed to slow down to redirect the club on the downswing or aim more to the right, close the face a play a big hook.. not possible. I already play a big draw with Driver, more curvature is unplayable. Yesterday at home, with no ball messed around with a more neutral path, even swinging a little out to in. It felt a lot more in sync with the body. With a big in to out path it feels like my hands are working right, away from the body, when the body is working to rotate to the left. With the path to the left is was easier to apply force thru the hitting zone.  As always tested 10 swings with my current swing (A), and 10 with this little out to in path(B).  The difference was huge, like 12 miles faster with swing (B). I knew something wasn't right. The fact was that the PRGR was aligned more in line with the (B) path so it of course was giving higher speeds. I proceeded to align it with the (A) path and tested again 5 more swings each. Again (B) was faster but only by 5 miles. (Made a tiny experiment moving the PRGR to a more extreme in to out path and the swings register 25/30% slower for both swings, so it wasn't reading properly at that angle) Finally I moved the PRGR in the middle of both paths, and this time (B) won by 9 miles. Off course, this was without a ball and a target so.. I will be hitting the range tomorrow to see the real difference.

    • At Bent Tree, right? I'm surprised the greens were that slow. I played right around the corner at Northstar and their greens were normal speed. Slightly soft/receptive but not overly so and not slow or shaggy by any means.
