How did you shoot today at Golf
And people come in telling us what great condition the course is in…. So do they not know what good is? Where the f*ck else are they playing ??
Yes, this is a tee box.
Just got in, decided to play 18 instead of 9. Temps in the mid 90’s so the course was empty. Shot -9. Missed a 10 footer on the last hole for birdie, thought it’d break, didn’t. Went back and tried again, it was straight…. Damn!!!!! That would have been -10
Hit every green, irons were decent, getting better. Hitting the driver longer than I can remember.

Called off our usual Tuesday travel group today b/c of storms this morning. Finally got out later though with #1 son who took me to the cleaners, 82 to my 84 at Detwiler GC in Toledo. My back continues to bother me when I play, typically tightening up on the back 9. Aside from getting to play with my son, today's 41-43-84 round was not too much fun.....3 GIR's, 32 putts, 1 D.bogey, 0 birdies. Maybe I'll try riding next time.....
Had to walk 18 since carts weren't allowed out due to storms. It was hot and muggy when I went out at noon. Virtually had the course to myself. Tons of water on the course making you walk way out of the way to get to a ball right in the middle of the fairway. Played pretty good, finished in 2:45. Got tired at the end finishing double-double which hurt. Shot 83.
Walterjn Dude, I was sitting there at the bar today with a grounds crew guy and the 2 other pros and I said that exactly!!
They said they sprayed last month. I said it needed to be sprayed in April, June is too late. I don’t even work on the grounds crew. I told them I hadn’t been out in 2!weeks and couldn’t believe how bad the tee boxes were. They agreed. But again, theses dunces move the markers to where the seed and sand mix is instead of where there is grass. Or like I said, close the tee boxes and put the tees either in front or off to the side it all the way back.
First round in a week and only the second this month.
Shot 44- 40 = 84, with 4 doubles, 31 putts, 8 fairways, and 7 GIR. Hit the ball well. Had 4 very big wedge chunks, something I rarely do. This can and will be corrected. Just a matter of deacceleration and not attacking.
38 persimmon woods and blade irons. Impact around 60%. Enjoyable walk for 9 as humidity dropped.
Ended with a boom yesterday....18 is a reachable par 5 .....Driver to 208 out, hit a nice high cut 4w to about 10 feet and drained the putt for an eagle to get me to 1 over
44 in league last night and the losing streak continues. I am killing the ball, but getting myself in trouble driving it through doglegs and flying greens. I am cranking the Rogue ST Max; no idea why I ordered the Ai Smoke.
Nice!!
Normally, while I don't hit far I can usually find the fairway. My putting is decent, I don't ake many long ones, but I don't 3 putt much. Today, On the front nine, my driving was terrible, I did manage to straighten it out on the back. I had 5 3 putts to go along with 5 1 putts for 36 putts. It's too bad my driving and putting were so bad as my irons were better than they have been in a long time. Ended up shooting 48/44 which is in my normal range.
Upper 70's/low 80's but humid. The course was in decent shape considering the deluge we had yesterday. CPO but we got around in about 3:45.
First time playing in 15 days....39/43
Did a little Tin Cup action trying to get to the par 5, 10th in 2.
Had 230 to the pin and put 3 in the water for a 10
KCee Why are you flying greens? I’ve never had the issue where I’m hitting it good and then all of the sudden I’m 15 yards longer with a given iron. I don’t get it …
I have another pro who has Mavrik irons and he flies greens when he doesn’t expect it but I told him it’s the hot spots on hollow irons that does that.
