I figured we could have a thread on golf rounds. I'll go 1st. Played Whirlwind Cattail course today. I was hitting the driver far. Pushing 290-300 75% of...

Typhoon I don’t understand why people can’t go 4 hours between meals

That's because you don't eat.........you don't even stop moving.

Typhoon I like to have a box of triscuit crackers, maybe cheese and crackers, jerky, and jellybeans, with some bottles of water, maybe mango Arizona.

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.

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.

I think that's called the Human Condition. Hopefully you got some fresh air, sunshine and had some good company. I know I could use that right now.

Maybe look into donating to The Human Fund

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.

sdandrea1 What clubs other than putter did u use?

DonM

sdandrea1 Do they get irritated that you are not carrying more clubs?

Walterjn

Typhoon ooh, ooh, ooh, can I guess?!?!?!
Driver, 3 hybrid, 7 hybrid, 9 iron...
Kidding!!!

Close!

DonM Do they get irritated that you are not carrying more clubs?

Today's game required all 36 players to carry 4 clubs and a putter, but it was my idea. I usually carry about 9 clubs and the only guys who get irritated are the ones who pay me $. 😉😂

Walterjn

sdandrea1 well shit, that was fairly close for a total guess...

Typhoon

sdandrea1 I go out an play our front 9 with a driver , 7 iron, 56 degree and putter.

Occasionally just 7 iron, 56 and putter.

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.

Spartan It is 2/7/2024....in the Midwest....htf can anything be that dry in order to burn freely? I could pour gas on my lawn, and would have to hold the flame to it before it would burn.

I have never seen brown grass in the winter, only summer.

Spartan

Par4QC I don't know. The fire wasn't close enough to the cart path that a carelessly tossed cigarettes could have caused it. And it's not a spot that that one would normally be. I've never been in that part of the course and I've played it a lot.
