A bit of exaggeration on my part. They weren't so slow as to be unreasonable, but they were a huge change from very fast greens played the prior two rounds. I just didn't adjust well enough. I did OK on downhill putts but the uphill ones got me.
How did you shoot today at Golf
MidwayJ I always find it hard to adjust when they are completely different from the previous rounds. Apparently my brain doesn't like change and even putting on the practice green doesn't translate to the round. I'm playing this weekend and they will probably be fast again since the rain has finally stopped.
81 at Tarpon Springs. Had two birdies. Had the driver and fairway woods in control today. Especially my 3 wood. Roasted some beautiful 3 woods today.
39, 39 today on The Oaks. Team placed 2nd out of two teams. 
Quick nine this morning, CPO and muddy. I wore black shoes and socks for Mike. @SMT
I used an armlock putter without any real practice time to get used to it. I didn’t do very well with it. But I chipped well. Maybe I need a putter that you hit with a chipping stroke.
Anyway 42, 16 putts. 3 greens, and I 3-putted two of them. Bah.
Got out for nine at the local muni today. Good weather except for a gusty breeze. Bookend birdies ware the highlight. Missed two 4-6 foot putts because I didnt hit them hard enough (didn't leave them short, but missed them both low). Had ona blow-up hole, with a water ball and a two-chip, leading to a triple.
Despite that hole and the missed short putts, I managed a 41.
Mostly the round was disappointing, but the way I birdied the last hole was so fun it made me forget a lot of the other issues.

Another incredible Mi day. Wore shorts on October 27th! I shot 42-44-86 but actually hit the ball really well except for wedges for some reason. 3 times on Par 5's I had wedge in hand for my third shot and lined them all over the green, and over the green is pretty much dead. Cost me 4-5 shots easy. Not sure what that was all about.
I think we're kinda done for playing for score. Greens are getting a bit rough and all the leaves are impossible to putt through.
garyt1957 Went out for a quick round yesterday around 2pm. Between the sun and leaves it was nearly impossible to play. I lost every ball I hit on the first 3 holes that didnt land on the green and only one wasn't in the fairway. Think I lost 8 balls in 3 holes. Wasn't just me , looked around and all you saw were carts circling. I didn't have the time or patience for that so I quit. Played a couple more holes just dropping balls at various distances and hitting into greens. Even a ball just off the green was hard to find. Packed it up after 40 minutes and went home.

85 at Timber Greens. Stunk it up on the front with a 46, but came to life on the back with a 39. Probably the worst front nine I've ever had at Timber Greens.
One of my buddies had a chance to break 80 today, but shot an 82 instead. He had 3 birdies which is a lot for him. So we were rooting for him.
39* F plus a 20mph wind and some drizzle and wet flurries. Did I play, F yeah.....even played the deeper tees at 6650.
43/39
Ball was not going far. Eg: par 3 , 4th hole plays a bit down hill but today into the fan.
@167 yards would normally be a 6 or 7iron with the 10% elevation, today nutted a 3 iron ( my usual 190-200 club) and came up 20 yards short lol
Typhoon This time of year you play the shit balls you have in a shag bag
These were all found balls, so no big deal on the loss but it's just no fun if you literally never find a ball. I should have taken a picture, on a lot of holes the fairway was clear as could be until 200 yards out then the leaves started and went to about 250. Then a little clearing and the greens were covered. It looked like they dumped all the leaves right where 90% of the people would drive the ball.
