Best Shot of the Round
2nd hole today at Encanto 18. 300 yard par 4. Found the water about 180 yards on the right. Took my drop and had 120 to the flag. Hit my 50° with a 5 yard draw, one bounce and hit the flagstick! Stopped 2 feet from the hole and I made the par put.

2nd shot on Hole #3 yesterday…
512 yard par 5…I had 227 left to the front pin location after hitting the new Exotics C722 w/Tensei Orange driver approx. 270 yards total distance…had a perfect lie on the left side of fairway…
Night before I swapped out the adjustable Exotics C722 5 wood w/Ventus Red and went back to the Exotics C721 4 wood w/iDrive Tour 3.5…
Nutted the C721 dead straight and carried probably 220’ish and rolled up to about 4 feet…one putt Eagle …first time I have ever carded a 3 on hole #3 at my club.
Same scenario & pulled same club on the 505 yard par 5 hole #9…224 yards out…on the green in two again but with a longer 16’ish foot eagle putt…pushed the putt right for a miss & tap in birdie.
What did I end up shooting you ask?? Managed to still card a 96 …nope that isn’t a typo…
A major case of the Pulls for the better part of the day with multiple clubs was the culprit…playing from the trees & hitting most every one of them on this course makes the game very hard…
…and I didn’t lose a single ball & did not hit out of any bunkers all day either…just trees…many many damn trees
You da man!!

Walterjn out to 230 carry,
That is around my average carry on decent swings…230-240…but this C722 with Tensei Orange sure seems to be a low spin combo…I had to crank it up to ++ on the range…which is supposedly 12.5*…I have never had a driver set that high before…and I am in no way hitting too high or spinny ones at this setting…the trajectory on pure hits is actually a good apex…I bet the good driver swings I had yesterday must have had pretty dang good rollout…which was obvious to me because I don’t hit total distance that far normally…
VigilanteTrail nice!!
My goal is to get my driver distance out as far as I can before I reach 50, I got 2 years...
I'd like to see 300 by then, that is my end goal. I have some new parts on the way, and I'll build one of the HOF shafts and see if the shaft weight helps me any with better control.
