Shot a new PB today. Beating my previous best of 79 by 4 for a 75. My goal was breaking 80 this year so delighted to have flew past it already a few times.

I’ve just done a search and I found a lot. Thanks. Sorry for bothering you 👍

What do you guys make of this? @iacas Flagstick Out!: The science behind why the flagstick should be pulled 99.9 percent of the time | Golf Equipment: Clubs, Balls, Bags | Golf Digest If only Davis Thompson has seen this Ph.D. Research before seeing his birdie putt on the 71st hole of the 2023...

Can I claim my broke 80 award please, broke it on Saturday. Thank you
-
Finally broke 80 on my home course (par 71) on Saturday last for the first time in a most unlikely way. Shot +9 on the front nine and then -1 on the back nine for a 79. Delighted

No question about it the second one. A hole in one would be great and all but it’s not something I think about much or “really” want. If it happened ya great but a personal best round by three shots would make me feel a whole lot better and have me buzzing for a while.

Shot my first ever no six round today as well as a double bogey free round which is also a first. I Bly equalled my personal best of 80 though. Agonisingly close to breaking it

Hi I won our Golfer of the year in 2021. I’d like to claim the tournament winner award please. I never realised til now there is a tournament winner award. Thank you

Equalled my personal best today shooting 80. Needed a par on the last for 79 but caught my approach heavy and needed an up and down for par. The chip just didn’t roll out as much as I wanted so I missed my par put by a couple of inches. On the plus side I shot my first ever double bogey free round and first ever no sixes round (I thought this would have me breaking 80 but too many bogeys) I must head over and claim my badges 👍

Two more today, the 3rd and 4th holes. A par 4 and a par 3, I was 3 over on the front 9 and ended up 12 over. I didnt play particularly well but thats two more off the list.
-
Ticked 3 more off the list at the weekend, the 1st, 9th and 15th, all par fours, one of them the 15th is one I didnt get last year or ever before in fact so delighted with that.

There is a new guy at our club who's a pure chatterbox, he never stops talking, he's a good guy but he never shuts up. We were playing with him last week and one of the guys said to him on the 18th hole "for fcuk sake, does nobody talk to you at home?" I nearly keeled over laughing, so did the chatterbox to be fair to him.

IMO having more clubs makes the game easier not harder. You can make the same swing with the different clubs depending on how far you are from the green etc. With less clubs you have to hit different shots with the same clubs which might be fun but it's not easier and means more decision making not less.

As usual I will be rooting for Rory, he always seems to crumble at Augusta though, hopefully tnis is his year. I wouldn't be surprised to see Cameron Smith win, he is playing serious stuff and he seems cool under pressure.

I achieved all these goals apart from break 80. I shot 80 on the nose twice this year 😣. My handicap dropped from 16 to 11.2 this year because I shot low 80's relatively consistently. I'm definitely more confident hitting longer irons although nowhere near as good as I want them to be. My short game came on a lot, I get up and down far more often than I used to. I would say I make par about 50% of the time from around the green at a guess
