Great call. The other thread really was getting sluggish. Hopefully I will get to play again this week. Some positive stuff last week to build on (irons) and some stuff to fix (putting).

[Exactice808]

Alright I start it up!!!

Played Friday at a course that normally kicks my butt....

Shot an 83 Not bad as the other week I shot a horrid 101


8/13 Fairways (Yes course is 71)

9/18 GIR, Not bad 50% in my book

35 putts (Last week I had 44 putts) 2, 4putts and 3,3putts.... only 2, 3 putts this week,



So A much better improvement and some confidence building!

Won a fourball club match on Saturday two up away from home, paired with a 5 handicap. Made two birdies on par 5s after hitting it to 15' with a 7i and a wedge after a horrendous start and generally putted really well. Took me four shots to even reach the second fairway until I found a useable golf swing. Even then I still drove it awful but got it up and down from some tough spots. Think our medal score was level par 73 for the 18.

[eagle1997]

started the year in march with a 98 in a tournament in 30mph wind and temps just below 40.



a couple weeks after that, i shot 83 with temps in the high 50s.



yesterday i shot a 74. best round in at least 18 months. 4 birds, 3 bogeys and even had an 8 on a par 5. temps in the mid to upper 60s.



according to this statistical trend, i obviously will be scoring in the low 50s sometime in mid summer.



a guy can dream, right?

Small tweak to my grip. I shot an 83 on Friday and 84 on Saturday. Been shooting low 90's lately, so big jump. Friday, I was -1 on the par 5's and missed being -5 by less than 18 inches of putts total. My driver and long clubs were spot on. Need to keep that up and hit more greens, and I will be in magical territory for me.

81, best round since I returned to golf after >20 year hiatus. With 3 three-jacks. Happy camper.

First tournament with new men's club. Also first tournament since I returned to playing last spring.
Really struggled with the driver today ( hit it all over the place) but I scrambled like a madman. And I also hit a few great #2 hybrids off the tee that set things up nicely.
5 birdies, three over 75. Very, very happy especially since I had never played this course. Also hit a CTP 10".

Lost a match today 2&1, two completely bs lost balls did it for me. The other guy just played solid solid golf and closed it out really well.

I have been playing 8 months and still haven't brokeN 100. I play everything strictly by the rules because when I break 100 I really want it to mean something. Today I played 18 with a business associate and I was 10 over on the front and knew I had a really good shot at breaking 100. I went 18 over on the back for a smooth 100. Best score to date but sucked it up on the back.

Avoid the big miss and shoot for the middle of the green. I like that you are rule conscious!

4 Birdies. :superman2:

Just keep at it and it will happen. Just try to hit fairways and greens. I've learned just smooth steady swing. Good luck!!

76

[Tcann32]

I find this to be a good idea so I'll post my last round so it's in my "participated" section and I won't have to dig it up to continue along with it.

I shot an 86 on Saturday. (Columbia golf course, Minneapolis MN. Par 72, 35/37, 6489 yards, slope 129). The front 9 was the best I have ever played and I made the turn at 40 with 2 doubles and one single bogey, I parred 6 of the first 9 holes which was a great accomplishment for me, felt much better than 5 bogeys and 4 pars or any variation of that. Then on the back I collapsed and parred 1 hole, birdied another, 3 doubles, and the rest were bogies. Ball flight with the driver changed out of nowhere, and was probably a little excited to think that breaking 80 would've just been a continuation of my play for the most part.

Maybe next time..

[pheenomz4774]

Only played 9 yesterday but shot a 43 with two triple bogeys. No matter what course I play, or how long I play I will triple bogey at least two holes everytime. I didn't have a double bogey yesterday, the rest were pars, two bogeys and a birdie. But when I go down, I go down in flames hard. I never seem to be able to recover from a shot out-of-bounds.

5/7 Fairways
4/9 Greens
14 Putts

I play around a 15 handicap and consistency is really what's keeping me from getting any lower.

[ZacR88]

Last week I shot a 77 for my first round of the year, took a stupid double bogey and only hit 6 fairways. Missed a 4 foot eagle putt, had 2 birdies and left another 3 birdie putts an inch short. Could have been a stellar round. I'll take the 77 though.

[Jon H]

Played my home course for the first time this year. Posted an 80 on a cold, windy day. I'll take it.

1 bird, 2 doubles. Hit 8 GIR, 32 Putts.

[parthurvt]

shot a personal best 75 today! That includes a quadruple bogey...5 birdies always helps though.

[MyShortGameSucks]

Myrtle Beach Vacation Scores (all tees around 6700-6800)

Monday : Kings North : 75
Tuesday : Willbrook : 80
Wednesday : Prestwick : 76
Today : DeBordieu Club 78

What was more fun was watching my son shoot his personal best score at DeBordieu today. He shot a smooth 73 off of the 5200 yard tees

[Illest]

Well if Mother Nature hadn't decided to ruin my day (after 2 weather forecasts said 0% chance of rain!)....I was on pace to shoot an 83. I was having my best round this year too.

[MoneyPlayer33]

2nd round of the year I came out the gate like a world beater. birdies on 1-3-6 have me on the 7th tee at 3 under . Then my game decides to just leave lol. Last 12 holes 6 bogey 1 double 5 pars and I card a 5 over 77. Very frustrating day

On a positive note my course opens up Wednesday after a rough winter and I shid b getting out there more consistently now

[ZipinZ]

Got 4 rounds in this month then it snowed today ... so these two black buzzards were bugging the birdies .... no more!
