How did you shoot today at Golf

Shot an 85 this weekend. My ballstriking was good enough to shoot an 80 or less, but not my short game. Some of it was definitely the slow aerated greens that I 3-putted 4 times

That was definitely the last full round at my course as they are closing the back 9 and putting temp greens on the front until Spring. If I don't play again it was nice to finish hitting the ball that well. All I tried to do was take the club back slower and square and then start the downswing with my body rather than my arms. I drove the ball farther than usual and I did it in 45* weather with an OnCore Elixr that I usually find a bit shorter hitting. If I do remember this feeling of course it won't work next year

75 at Heritage Harbor. Had 4 birdies. My buddy shot a 78 and had 2 birdies. We had a birdie fest. lol Just two of us this morning and we went around in a little over 3 hours.

50 degree day here in CT. Walked 9 holes on a wet golf course that still has lots of leaves. I have not played outside in a few weeks, shot a 42, with one birdie. Short game has some rust on it but overall very pleased with my ball striking.

Shot 48/40 at Tangle Ridge, Grand Prairie, TX. Rough start with a triple on #1 and another on #5. Couldn't hit a solid iron shot until my first GIR on the par 3 9th, which I 3-putted.

The back 9 was like a reboot with 4 GIR and nothing higher than a bogey. The greens were fast like most courses here lately, as the grass is becoming dormant.

Sparky I've played Prairie Lakes a fair amount. The dreaded "Bermuda Triangle" on the "white" nine, lol.

MidwayJ I remember that I got my first par ever on #9 on the north 9 holes. And then about a month later, got my first ever birdie on the same hole.

Sparky They call them the red, white, and blue 9s now. I guess the north 9 would be the red. One of my claims to fame at Prairie Lakes is hitting power lines with a drive.

DonM This time my swing was fine but I couldn’t get up and down and couldn’t putt

In the Cosmos - error must go somewhere.

Mattyv I'm in Vegas right now and it's been beautiful. 10 * warmer than normal. We didn't bring our clubs this time because it was supposed to be colder and I'm golfer out. Sometimes I think the forced break is a good thing

I can relate to the forced break. Where I live in Canada we have a forced break every year from November to March. Except for the golf game and simulators which I'll hit two or three times a month starting in January.

I agree. I don't mind not playing for a couple of months, but I hate when I have to go 4-5 months not playing.

KCee I agree. I don't mind not playing for a few days.

Fixed it

KCee I agree. I don't mind not playing for a couple of months, but I hate when I have to go 4-5 months not playing.

I always liked the break because I could focus on just hitting balls, or working on speed without the worry of it affecting my game the next day. Now… I don’t play at all and don’t miss it one bit.

Typhoon methinks we need to get you playing again, and more often!!!

Typhoon I could focus on just hitting balls

This seems to work well for me. Many times just hitting balls into my net seems to improve my swing. I don't worry about where the ball is going or how far I just try to make good swings with good contact. Last week I used the net Fri night and then for 10 minutes Sat morning and hit the ball great that day.....of course my short game sucked, but whatever.

KCee Put a piece of masking tape on the face to see how you’re doing
