  1. My mom drops me off at the course after school everyday so when it's too dark to play, I hit balls at the range or putt. I just keep hitting balls until my mom comes and picks me up and sometimes I end up hitting around 500 range balls haha. I think that might be too much, but my mom usually doesn't pick me up until 4 or 5 hours later so I just try and make the most of it.
  2. on my high school golf team, we don't get anything free besides green fees. we had to buy our own ping hoofer bag (and we "have" to pay extra to get our names embroidered on them), shirts and jackets.
  3. Driver- 200-220 3 wood- 185 3 hybrid- 170 5 hybrid- 150 6- 140 7- 130 8- 120 9- 105 P- 95 52- 80 56- 60 60- 40 by the way, i am a high school girl so that might explain short distances
  4. i talked to my instructor again yesterday and he told me what i was doing wrong. the reason i hit a major cut is because i shift to the left before i even hit the ball. but when my eyes are closed, i focused on balancing my weight between my feet and just rotating my body, therefore i didnt slice the ball. weeeeird, eh? nonetheless, i had a tournament today and totally sucked with my driver
  5. haha yes i have, only at the range though. i tried with my eyes squinted so i could barely see, and it's better than i hit it with my eyes fully open.
  6. i had a tourney today and i totally lost my driver too. i shot 95 and i am soooo pissed. my drives each went like 100 yards hahaha =[
  7. wow the course looks really nice. and there's gonna be a callaway performance center!
  8. another way to do it is to move the ball to the back of your stance by about an inch, but keep your hands forward. you generate good backspin and you usually hit the ball further and lower.
  9. i get good backspin by placing the ball further back in my stance but focus on hitting down in front of the ball. it works great!
  10. i used to be able to hit my driver really well. but then about a few weeks ago, i just totally lost it. every drive i hit is a major cut. so a few days ago, my instructor told me to try to hit my driver with my eyes closed. and WHAT DO YOU KNOW? i can hit draws and hit the ball straight with my eyes closed. but once i try and hit my driver with my eyes open, it's back to the cuts. THIS IS HONESTLY SO FRUSTRATING!!!!
  11. i can't hit a draw anymore either. it's been a few weeks now where i've been cutting every drive =/ it's so depressing
  12. hahaha good one
  13. i play on the high school team and one week we had four matches in a row. with school and everything, i was pretty burnt out by the end of the week. the greens were being aerified at every course we played at (we played 4 different courses, what a coincidence) so everyone's scores were a bit higher because it was impossible to putt. but my scores that week were 44-47-43-55. hahaha
  14. i was playing a tournament the other day and i was about 200 yards out. so i pull out my 3 wood and it was probably about the best shot i've hit with that club all day. but there was a gardener on the right side of the fairway and i hit him square on the shoulder. the ball bounced 10 yards to the right into the rough =P the gardener was okay though, good thing.
  15. if i'm playing with some friends, we talk if i'm playing by myself, i clean the grooves of my wedges haha
  16. congrats!
