How did you shoot today at Golf
- Edited
Shot a 49 last night. Felt a twinge in my back, struggled all night. Could not hit a drive (had two with me). Slices and lost balls adding strokes. Was able to hit irons better and putter is working well for me. Hopefully, my injury is short lived.

Had the last two days off. Played 36 yesterday and 18 this morning in some tough conditions at Brown Co., a good quality muni....all the golfers before us did not show up so we were first off at 730 and had the place to ourself. Played very well. Stats for the round
11/14 fairways - hit driver on 13 holes and 3h on 1 hole. First cut on one miss. And narrow misses on the other two, one pace in the left rough and three places in the right rough.
12/18 greens
6/6 up and down opportunities, although 4 of the 6 were fringe or fairway just short of green. The other two were in the rough within 3 or 4 places to the green and what I would consider reasonable opportunities to get up and down...both to kick in distance, in fact almost made them both?
28 putts. Greens roll true and are quick.
Good clean fun. 3some walking in 3 hours!
DonM lol...I don't report as almost all are "practice" rounds....as occasionally extra shots are hit, putts, chips, etc. although today that didn't happen as I was dead tired from the 36 yesterday and a few beers post round
. The intent was to play another 18, but my buddy and I agreed it wasn't happening. The wind was howling worse in the afternoon!

MidwayJ thanks. Re: Wishon 590 DIH, it is ancient history, at least.one of them is, sold the head, still have the other one. Those babies were/are hot!
Pretty basic set up for me these days, and I do still have a driving iron style at the 5i slot!
D - 10.5*
4w - 16.5*
3h - 19*
4h - 22*
5di - 26*
7-GW 32* - 48*
SW - 56*
There is a small gap from 5 - 7 but it's maybe 1/2 club, same.from 48* to stand alone SW 56* but the GW is easy enough to back off some. Back to the STi2 from the KE4 Max which is a great head, but the STi2 are much easier to flight and like the sole a bit better/turf interaction. Also I could not elevate the 30* 7i for it to have enough use.....possible it was off spec and lower than stated, but 
....I stopped fighting it. The 32* STi2 7i gets plenty of height. Getting.into geezer territory
ode There is a small gap from 5 - 7 but it's maybe 1/2 club, same.from 48* to stand alone SW 56* but the GW is easy enough to back off some.
Right now with Maltby irons and wedges I'm at 44/48/52/56. I could ditch the 48* easier than the 52. I played for a long time with a gap between 45* PW and 52. I'm still trying to figure out when to use the 48. 
Yesterday we got our weekly deluge that floods the front nine. Today I played the back nine twice, CPO. 40 with a double, and 44 with a triple and a double. No putts made. But I got some exercise and vitamin D.

Played the best course in the metro area today, The Orchards. Tough course, great conditions, fast greens. Shot 86, 12 Fw's 7 GIRs. Tough to hold greens or get it to stop close. Had 3 lip outs that definitely drop on the slower greens I usually play. Hit some of the longest drives I have in a while with a 7.5 degree Soo Long driver at 42". Might be a keeper but will probably have to carry two drivers for when I have a forced carry. Beautiful day out with the wife.
Today I played 36 holes with a buddy. He booked the round via golf moose. Round for 2, plus cart, plus replay, total of $90.00
1st round I carded 48/46- 94. My buddy went 48/48-96.
2nd round I carded 46/51-97. He carded 43/51-94.
My driver went south on the 2nd round, so I started to take a partial swing and just try to bunt it down into the fairway so I could hit my 5 iron which was almost golden today. My 7 iron let me have a beautiful straight, long, high shot that hit the green nicely.
They had us starting on hole 10, not sure why. They did have guys working on the bunkers on the front 9, yet they didn't close the front 9...
