Typhoon hahahaha. Probably is, and I'm cutting it way down. I'm normally hitting a shorter club than MOST of the guys I play with, most of the time 2 clubs shorter.

Delayed update- Played last Wednesday the Rookery in Rehoboth Del on vacation. Course was in great shape. Shot a 47 on the front (which is good for me!) with a memorable Eagle on hole 3, a 300 yard par 4. Drove the green with a drive my GPS had pitching at 280. Based on the pitch mark and where I ended up, it had a look on the way by the hole. Had about a 50 footer slightly down hill but relatively straight and I holed it.

The rains came as we were on 9. We took a 25 min break in the clubhouse while the worst of it came down. Played the back 9 in the drizzle. Shot a 55 for a 102.

    87 - which is not a bad score for me. Had 14 par or bogey holes with a string of 5 pars on 2 - 6. Shot 41 on the front, 46 on the back. My new ball is the Wilson 50 Elite. A Buzzer sent me an assortment of balls to try last week and that was one of them. Good off my driver and irons. Not a lot of spin on chips and pitches, but I suck at those anyway. Ordered more to try from Amazon and played them exclusively - losing only one. Expect them to go out of production any day now.

      Got out for 9 today. Very humid, very little wind (for a change).
      Played hlt and cold. My irons were just slightly off for the first few holes. I couldn't figure out what was wrong; they just didn't feel crisp.
      As I went on, though, they got better. Had reasonable birdie looks on 6, 8, and 9,but missed all of them. Tap-in pars are nice, though.
      Driver warmed up over time, too. Had good drives on 7, 8, and 9. Really wished I could have had time to play the back 9. I think I would have had a chance for a pretty good score.

      I shot 39-37-76 today at White Pines Golf Club in Swanton, OH today. Beautiful weather....high of 80....no wind to speak of. My back finally seems to be coming around thanks to Physical Therapy. No birdies, 9 GIR, 30 putts.

      Couple under par, didnโ€™t make any putts. Missed one green. And on that made an amazing flop shot on the short side to a downhill pinโ€ฆ. Tap in. Amazed myself on that one. Driving was poor again until I realized I needed to slow down and then was ok. Swing it like my ironsโ€ฆ dummyโ€ฆ

        75 ugh ... Pissed away and even par or under round with missing a bunny for birdie and not getting up and in on two easy chances just off the green. Solid ball striking all around. Pulled one tee shot that just caught the left trees and dropped straight down and cost me a stroke.....other than that had clean looks into all the greens.

          Donโ€™t forget the 25 footer that you shouldnโ€™t have made, but did.

            41 in league last night. I continue to be a lipout king and cannot get a putt to drop. I did belly a wedge in for birdie on #3 par 5 though. League is over; winter is coming ๐Ÿ˜ž

            LogicalOne I forgot about my luck๐Ÿค” on 18.....super finishing hole. 460, par 5, tree line on both sides but wide enough to not feel pinched.....pushed my drive into the junk but found it (and about 10 other balls).....I had a choice between unplayable or punch out sideways and i chopped it out and got something up by the green and got up and down for par.

            Gonna have to ask what that area is as nothing is marked on the course anymore and I don't remember if that area is hazard or not....but I played it as unmarked and down.

            P.s. the ugh is about throwing shots away not the score.๐Ÿ˜‰

              79 at Old South in Bluffton. Cupcake of a course from Green tees @5135y. I coulda- shoulda gone lower! Lost a little focus on the back. Played with 3 college students from the Cincy area. Nice kids, good players! SWMBO is at the beach. I'm headed there now. Got around in 3.5 hours.
