How did you shoot today at Golf
Played 2 days ago, first time out in a couple months, picked up like I was playing in high school again, except this time I understood course management a little, cruised around to a 45 for 9. BUT that was with a triple at the last and really solid contact all day, so in my mind it felt like a 42, I’m going to mentally bank it as such. I had a really good (for me) day with 7 of 9 holes in regulation, I did however conclude either my putter got bent or I need a new one bc I can’t get that thing lined up comfortably and it’s driving me nuts.
77 today on The Oaks. Team won 3rd place $, I won a CTP.
I played my first round of the year today in St. Louis. A beautiful February day, 50 at tee time, mid 60's when we finished. Sunny although it did cloud up towards the end.
I shot 45/42 which is pretty good for me. It could have been better as I had 5-6 3 putts which isn't my norm. It was one of my better driving days and irons were mostly decent. I only had one penalty stroke and played the entire round with the same ball.
It was CPO so a round of about 4:10 wasn't too bad. We did wait a fair amount.

I played a miserable round on Monday. I have a condition that involves meds, and some days I just don't feel right. I probably should have bailed but i didn't.
92, 37 putts, 12 fairways, 6 greens. Worst score since I've been at this course. The driver and woods were the only things working. Irons were godawful. Almost every shot was fat and I couldn't find a workaround. Chipping and putting were awful too. Anything that required touch was bad. Our C & D players didn't break a hundred, and our other guy wasn't doing well, so overall we got squished like bugs. It was a beautiful day, though. :/
I went to the range yesterday with heavier irons and also feeling more normal, and struck them fine.

4 clubs and a putter today. Sloppy short game/putting led to an 84. Not having a SW hurt.
I was 6 strokes short of my quota, but my teammates carried (me) the day. We got 2nd.
76 at Timber Greens. Had one birdie. Cool morning with just a little rain toward the end. Got a dozen Chrome Softs for Christmas from my niece. Use to play them and always liked them. Played the same ball for the round.
This is why golf is a four letter word; last week I played well from tee to green but ended up with 4 or 5 three putts, today I played poorly from tee to green (except for a couple of par 3's) but had no 3 putts. Ended up with 49/44, about normal for me.
It was CPO and we got around in 3:40.
As we were coming up the 16th fairway we saw smoke behind the green. As we got closer we could see flames. I was trying to decide if I should call the clubhouse. But as we got to the green we could finally see a couple of course workers had arrived and they quickly extinguished it. I asked if it was intentional and they said no.
