I thought I was alone in such depression After shooting 79 (first shot OOB) for 17 holes on Monday (picked up on 11 after another OOB playing a 4 ball and didnt have a chance) I figured today I cold improve with a little more concentration. The great golfing god decided differently and gave me a 98 . How can striking the relatively well 1 day desert me a few days later? I live in eternal hope. Keep trying . 1 day it might happen

I always seem to play 12-14 good holes each round but end up having double or triple bogies for the rest of the 4-6 holes. Never the same holes, even that's inconsistent. Started yesterday.birdie, par,par,par,bogey,bogey,bogey(three putted par 3)bogey. only needed a bogey at the 9th for a 39. Managed a triple bogey but still good 9 for me . back in 44 by birdying the last, but 2 double bogeys in the 9.How do I get consistency?

2 in 1 round 360 yd 16th - Hit a long (for me ) drive into the right hand rough, but was shut out by overhanging branches of adjacent trees. I thought a sand wedge would get the up quickly to clear the bunker in front of the green but the ball caught the over hanging branches of tthe adjacent tree. I,m still 10 yds from both green and bunker . A lob wedge was the answer. Ho no it wasn,t as the shot landed on the top of the back of the bunker but didn't roll back in.out came the putter as I was only 15ft from the pin .Up the bank, broke right down the other side rolled across the green ,broke right into the cup. Short dogleg 18th over a brook ( creek to you) but again right into the small trees leaving 115 yds. to the pin over a bunker. 9 iron that floated like a dream straight to the pin,2 inches short. This games easy. Despite 8 on the par 5 1st,and 2 other double bogies made 87. I'll be back next week.
