Mine was this weekend as well.... I was in a good position after day one was 2 strokes back of the leader came out in the final round and was 4 under par through 12 then i proceeded to play the next 4 holes 6 over par (triple on 13, double on 14, birdie on 15, double on 16) ended up shooting two over par 73 on a par 71. The winning score was 71-71 for a 142 total i ended up at a 146 overall. Pretty disappointing finish considering my drive was 130 yards out in the middle of the fairway on 13 and i tripled it.

I was playing with a buddy one time and our cart was parked 90 degrees to the left of where he was hitting from he topped his shot so bad it went directly in the air and landed on top of our golf cart it was the most unbelievable shot i've ever witnessed. Granted he does have a few medical limitations so it's hard for him sometimes to hit down on the ball, but either way it was a good laugh.

I zone most the things out when I'm playing.... But what drives me nuts is when the starter pushes back your tee time so he can accommodate his friends/skins group... Seems to happen to me all the time.

Par 3 195 yards Playing dead into the wind so it's playing about 220 is I hit my 3 iron short right Skull my chip into a small pot bunker in the back Ball is sitting on a downslope in the bunker Put weight on the front with ball in the back it comes out perfectly and lands about 15 feet short of the pin and comes slightly down the hill into the hole for a par

I've had 15+ eagles, tons of chip ins, but have never holed a bunker shot.

More upper body rotation... I try to get my back to the target in my backswing.

I used to struggle with the driver... Then what I did was went out and tried a bunch of fairly forgiving drivers, got fit for the appropriate shaft and then cut it down to 43 inches for consistency. The driver I went with at the time was a g25. Over time my driver game started to become a strength and now I'm able to hit a 44 and a half inch driver constantly.

I had a front nine of 36 and a back nine of 45 this week :(

Here's the hole. Playing the gold tee there is trees to the right of the tee box that don't allow you to cut the corner so typically the play is 3 hybrid/long iron off the tee then an iron to lay up to go for it in three. My round didn't start off well i was 5 over through 4 holes, I decided to make an aggressive play... i hit a cut driver perfectly off the tee that left me 260 to the green, i then hit a perfect 3 wood over the water to get on in two then drained the putt for an eagle to get back to 3 over. Complete turn around for my round.

It's no big deal, I play Srixon Z Yellows sometimes when I play practice rounds. They make some pretty good yellow golf balls now.

My dad and step mom are both class A PGA professionals Growing up I was never interested in golf because I was always into more up pace sports... I was a huge into basketball, football, snowboarding, and played baseball growing up. When I got out of high school I wasn't able to playing competitive sports anymore, and we went on a trip to mexico as a family and my dad brought me out golfing and surprisingly i shot pretty decent for never being into golf i shot an 84. After that I was hooked, keep in mind that wasn't my first time picking up a club, I would play maybe 2 to 3 times a year with my dad, but nothing seriously. 3 years later here I am

Worst round this year... 95 Best round this year... 69 Average score this year is probably 78ish

I'm simply not good enough to get mad. That is my mindset.
-
How could you possibly be confident with your swing if you are using incorrect clubs? There is a reason you're hooking the ball.
-
No point for me to use a 60, if i need more loft i can deloft my 56 to play with more loft.

I've had some awful back nines, but I had a buddy do this in a tournament he was like a 5 handicap was 2 under for a 34 on the front and followed it with a 46 on the back nine for an 80... Didn't even get in the money.
-
He is to competitive to retire.
-
6 and a half hours for nine holes? That has to be exaggerated. 45minutes per hole i don't see it not matter how busy the course and if there was 6 groups waiting on every hole there would be 216 people playing the front nine alone. there isn't even close to being enough tee times for that.

Playing a round in Reno, I witnessed my dad getting an ace on a short par 4... It was like 322 or something slight downhill dead straight. My dad is also a golfer professional so it was like his 6 or 7th ace. O:

Get to a 0 HDC

I'm glad I am not in Ohio anymore!!! Moved out to Reno Nevada and about 8 months ago moved to San Diego County

Seriously don't listen to all the haters that are telling you that you cannot achieve your goal. Anything is possible, it is going to be incredibly difficult, but if you're willing to out work everybody you can make it. You're still young so you can focus hard on golf for 4-5 years and if you happen to fall short there are tons of awesome golf opportunities out there for you besides playing.
