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.

    DonM I have a condition that involves meds, and some days I just don't feel right.

    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.

      KCee I think that's called the Human Condition.

      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.

        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 $. 😉😂

          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.

          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.

          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.

              Had a nice outing today. @brownmoose13 and one of his buds came to my camp from The Villages and we had lunch and played 18. Good times.👍

              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.

              Playing Kaanapali Royal course tomorrow with rental Pxg clubs. Me my dad and son in law. If winds keep ripping like the last 3 days 90 will be the score to beat

              I had a low-ball going yesterday with a 1 over on the front. Went brain dead and bogeyed 15 thru 18 to shoot 77.

              80 at Tarpon Springs. Had two birdies. Colder than a whores heart in flight time this morning. 🥶 Tale of two 9’s.
              Shot a 10 over 45 on the front and a 2 under 35 (Par 35-37) on the back 9. I’ll attribute the difference being it warmed up on the back 9. 🏌️
