The scorecard said 44-49/93, but with the shotgun start in our league it was actually 40-53. Three of my last 5 holes were a quadruple, triple, and quintuple. What a collapse after playing pretty well for 13 holes. Much foul language was spoken.

    Individual tournament today. I was third gross in the first flight but got first net. 🙂
    42-36 for 78, net 70. Same nine I shot 36 on yesterday.

    8 greens, 30 putts. 2 birds, no doubles. 2 three putts from long range. I got 2 skins for a whopping $15. Ours don’t pay big like some of you guys have. That’s because they are flighted so it’s a small pool, with several skins that hold up.

      DonM got 2 skins for a whopping $15. Ours don’t pay big like some of you guys have.

      You just have to work a bit harder than some to get the $$$. 😉

        DonM Ours don’t pay big like some of you guys have.

        Our tournaments don't pay big either. It's the side betting that pays for new shoes. The club has wised up though and handles more of the betting and takes a cut lol.

          40-42-82 at my "home course," Chippewa Golf Club in Curtice, OH today. Cool and breezy, but at least the sun was out all day, and it was a good day to play. I hit several good shots, but unfortunately not many of them were chips or putts.....only hit 2 greens, 31 putts.

          I have to explain something that may appear as 'slightly unusual/perhaps unbelievable'.
          I won a new putter a few months ago. A L.A.B Link 1, with an upgraded KBS Tour GPS shaft. It was a very professional build by a top clubmaker. Zero costs...absolutely free. And this sumbich has made me an even better putter. I've actually been embarrassed to post total putts, but have been in the 25-27 range since using this, the last 3 rounds. It truly does seem like it has GPS on the cup. Absolute nicest feeling putter I've ever held. And with what it sells for, I'm having a hard time not selling it.😅

          But, today's round was an almost S-M-A round of 73, with just 25 putts.
          1 double
          1 birdie
          11 1 putts!!

          I did buy a Zero Friction ball(orange) in the clubhouse, just for S&Gs. I gotta look these things up. Very nice feel, very long, and either due to my swing today or it's makeup, straight as an arrow.

            Par4QC 😅Sit down.....they sell for $550, with that build!!

            ....On second thought.......😞

              Par4QC l believe it because my LAB Mezz has definitely made me better. It’s really good.

                Finally got my first round of the season in. I was fairly pleased with the outcome.
                43-41 for an opening day 84. I had 28 putts (1 3-putt and 1 chip-in), and I converted 8 greenside opportunities. That's what helped my score. I hit 11 fairways and the misses were all in the first cut, so no real problems there. The biggest problem was lack of distance off the tee which put some pressure on the rest of my game.

                All in all, a satisfying start to the season.

                Good for 4th place in our flight (4 flights total)
                Missed 3rd place $$ by 0.2 strokes in our flight…
                Sandbagging lying bass turds I tell ya!! 😂

                Have never driven the ball as well as I did today…EVER…and all of them longer than my personal norm…only missed 1 fairway…crazy shizz…I earned the new title “fancy pants shaft guy” …go HOF go! 😂

                  Decent 85 today considering the wind. Great zig and zag with my partner to win low net. Also won a skin. Driver was a bit straighter.

                  Par4QC Why don’t you use another putter for your next round, see how you do. If you don’t putt well, go back to the LAB and see if your good putting comes back. Good way to see if it’s you or the putter.

                      Bravopilot Fivesome?

                      Yes…no idea why the Opening Day scramble is a fivesome format…but it always has been…must be a story behind it I imagine
