What'd You Shoot Today?

39-41 from the senior tees in prep for a club net tourney tomorrow.  I’m currently at 14, so that was really fun. Birdied the first hole, a par 5 after being just over the green in two. Figured out some things to improve my game too.  A new view on course management taking driver out of play on 2/3 of the holes severely improved the fairways hit.


At 65, I hit a drive measured at 290 yards which just blew me away.  Sitting just in front of a par 4, 319 yard in one. That made me realize driver isn’t really a necessity to score well on this course.

I shot my lowest score of the year today with a 76. I have been struggling with my irons lately but had something click the other week. I also decided to break out my MP 60's last week and hit them better than I thought I would. Had some key up and downs and made some key putts to save par. The 76 was also the lowest round I had ever shot with the 60's.

70 with 6 birdies on a dinky little par 69 drive pitch and putt course. I made three birdies in a row twice.

I can't recall the last time I made 3 in a row if its ever happened. I know I haven't done it twice in a round. I'm also not sure if I've ever made 6 in a round. I know I've made 5 in a round before and probably more than once.

 

The last 4 or 5 times I've played here I have shot low 80s and haven't made a birdie. Given how easy the course is you can't put into words how down I've been about my game. Shooting 80-83 here is worse than bogey golf handicap wise. Not sure what clicked.

 

Golf is strange.

Had a chance the other day to get out for a super twilight round.  Was supposed to tee off at 4:45 but rolled up at 4:35 and no one was there so off I went.  Decided to play from the tips. Got to hole 4, par 5, and hit my drive with a lot fade into the trees. Walk back to the cart to put the head cover back on the driver and the driver and the shaft broke right at the hosel.  
I finish the front from the tips but decided to move up to the senior tees for the back nine. I finished 44-44. Which is the first time was ever sub 90. I thought breaking 90 would be more exciting, but essentially playing 2  nine hole rounds instead of 18 made it not seem like I actually broke 90.

Played two balls round our front 8 yesterday. Positives. New driver is super forgiving, A balmy 14 degrees so hitting less into greens. Hit four irons in a row within 10 feet. Chipped in once. 

Negatives. Greens have been dressed and cored. Putting is a lottery. Still muddy. 

2 over with both balls. All is good.

Very pleased with today’s round. Papago is a beast from the tips. Just look at the par 3 yardages 🤣

 

We teed off on #10

Missed the bogey putt on 18 to tap in for a cool 100. After my last round of breaking 90 for the 1st time, I expected a higher score, but it would have been nice to be lower.  I hit my driver better than I have in years (maybe ever).  Long irons were ok. Inside 100 was bad overall, 4 skulled chips and 2 duffed.  I did have 4 balls find water, some of which I didn’t know water was there… I putted ok. 1 four putt and 2 three putts. I did up and down for par three times, once form the sand.  It felt like I played better than a 100 round, but numbers don’t lie.

40-43…pretty happy with that. Qualifier: from 5,200 yards, so not as solid as it seems. 😁
 

Course was really wet from two days of torrential rain. Happy it was open for play at all! 
 

Visited no bunkers or hazards. Got lucky to miss a pond I did not know was there from the tee box. The waterlogged conditions helped me there. Greens almost unputtable they were so shaggy, slow, and soft….but again, this time of year it’s good to see greens alive. 👍🏻

Hit my driver well today and also made some nice par saves. Shot another 76 but with my more forgiving Ping iE1's. Had 2 double bogeys, a bogey and a birdie. Little wind but the sun came out.

88. 49-39. Missed two inside 3’ for the 39. Pretty ugly. First full round since October, coming back from an injury. Hit maybe 3 or 4 pure shots all day. Sadness. 🙁

Man I just had a round like that. Shot an 88 too with a 48/40. The biggest kick for me was I had a snowman on back to back holes where I just couldn't get it together.

Shot +7 today, really disappointed.

 

I was -1 through 6 and really happy with that. Then proceeded to bogey 7, 8 and 9 to make the turn 2 over.

 

10 was a driveable par 4, hit into a greenside bunker and didnt get up and down.

 

11 wedged to about 8 feet, didnt hole the putt.

 

Made two solid pars on 12 and 13.

 

14 was a reachable par 5 where I was thinking play the hole well id get one back, and then proceeded to hit two balls out of bounds. 5 off the tee, ended up making an 8.

 

So im now +5 through 14, all the momentum has gone and enjoyment has gone, so i then go bogey bogey 15 and 16, finished with two pars.

 

I reckon if i had birdied 14 and not gone 5 off the tee, i would have shot maybe +2 or possibly +1, instead the round just fizzled out.

Played cart path only due to the severe weather and rain the past few days here in the Midwest. Standing water everywhere and debris filled greens. Couldn’t play the traps as they were small lakes.

 

Usual 86- 44/42 with a double (6) on 18. Darn-it!!!

79 yesterday. Driving was great but the game got worse the closer I got to the green. Greens worse than midweek. Bumpy, scant growth and aeration lines and holes are deflecting putts. On positive first round of year in short sleeved shirt and trees are budding up nicely. Matchplay this afternoon....different putter in the bag.
