How did you shoot today at Golf

I figured we could have a thread on golf rounds. I'll go 1st. Played Whirlwind Cattail course today. I was hitting the driver far. Pushing 290-300 75% of...

Beat hell outta the temp of 85.
36/36......72...Par/age!!😁

Only 7 FWs hit, but was trying something with 2 different drivers. And was only out a couple feet on ones missed.
8 GIRs, more than my norm.
2 birdies, and 'just' missed 3 other short ones.
27 putts.
And......one 3 putt!!🤬

Summer in Sept. for the next week or so. Hot, but no humidity.

sdandrea1 I did play with a guy a few years ago that, during conversations, I found out he was 86. Had a like new set of BeCu Pings, and under-clubbed every damn shot😄. Also played 'woods'.
Also while talking (because I asked) he related he had been club champion a few times at his CC. I could tell from the way he swung/played, other than the mis-clubbing.
Had to play outta my butt to clip him by 1 shot.

77 today with 9 greens and 29 putts. 2 birdies and no 3 putts. I’m making a lot of putts right now. I parred all the par threes. Had a couple of doubles.

The last two rounds, I’ve switched from my normal 45” 50 gram driver setup to 44”, 60+ grams, more head weight and bigger grip. I’m more accurate and I’d say my average distance is about the same. I might lose out on the absolute longest drive, but overall it’s helped my scores.

I shot 40-39-79 this morning at Bedford Hills GC in Temperance, MI. A unique course, it has three nines (Buckeye, Wolverine, and Irish), two of which are mostly in Michigan and one in Ohio. I played with my brother-in-law, who has been diagnosed recently with Parkinson's, so we rode. He has some challenges, but still plays a pretty decent game (middle 80's). 5 GIR's, 1 birdie, 29 putts. Course in excellent condition!

I played in the weekly club tournament which today was a flighted quota with skins. I came in second, 5 over quota, and got one skin.

Shot my third straight 77. 10 greens, 30 putts. I missed some real good birdie chances, but I also made a big bender for birdie from 35 feet, and chipped in for one from 40 or 50 feet. Both of those were par 3s. I had a third one from short range. I've been on a birdie binge lately. That's not usually part of my game.

I finished the round with a 7 after missing the green by 10 yards on the short side. If any of you ever watch Golf Sidekick videos, this hole would have had the tuba music playing. 😅

Went around 2x. Got involved in a 2 man scramble. 1st 9, we went around all 9 at -1. We got the 1 birdie on #3 when my partner put it on the green, and I made the putt.
The 2nd time around we started off with a birdie on hole 1, par on 2, then my partner hit the green again on 3, and I made the birdie putt. We made out only bogey on #6.

Played my first round in about a month since my Dad went into the hospital. Ran out to the slump buster because I can play 18 in 2 hours there.
Forgot to add up my score but figure it had to be 78-82? Had two birdies and two doubles and the rest pars and bogey.
Made back to back birdies on the two longest holes. 245 yard drive (!) and then a 208 yard 3 wood to 6 feet, made the putt. Next was a 513 par 5, on in reg and sunk the putt.
This was the first time all year I played that a course played firm. It wasn't rock hard or anything but you got some roll out.
Fun to get back out thete during a stressful time.

garyt1957 because I can play 18 in 2 hours there.

Where is this Shangri La golf course? I don't care if I need a hammer to get a tee in the ground, 18 in 2 hours is the dream!

There is town course about 10 minutes from my house that pre-pandemic you could play 18 in 2 hours on certain days at certain times. Now you probably won't get 9 holes done in that time.

KCee My main course usually only takes around 2.5. But lately, even mid-week afternoon, it's been backed up to at least 4. No clue as to why everyone is out all of a sudden. And they play sloooowwww........🤬

garyt1957

KCee It's just a local low level course in the middle of the city. Gets tons of play from leagues between 3:30 and closing and of course weekend play but earlier on weekdays it's usually open. They have 3 18's so plenty of times available. Usually I have to jump around some groups and go back and play the holes later but 2 hours is usually doable.

Can't play golf right now. Several weeks ago I hurt my foot. After stepping out of a greenside bunker I did my usual tap my shoes with my wedge to get the sand out so I don't trapes sand on the green.

Only this time I missed the sole of my shoe and banged my wedge above the sole and right on my foot. OUCH!!! Hurt for several minutes, but carried on with little trouble.

Fast forward a few weeks after playing golf with no issues and all of a sudden I'm limping and the whole lower side of my right foot hurts and it runs up above my ankle. Tried to play golf, but had to quit after 9 holes. Hurt like a bastid.

Made an appointment with an orthopedic doctor for next week to see what's going on. It feels like a bone contusion with a high ankle sprain. Weird there was such a delay in symptoms. Hopefully an x-ray will show no real damage.

Sneakylong Hope it isn't anything too serious. Get better soon and back to the golf.

Hopefully it's not too serious. Get well soon.

Played Poston Butte today in Florence AZ. Nice Troon course in excellent condition. 43-40 from 6400 yards. Had 10 fairways and only one bad miss on the 4 I didn't hit. 6 GIRS, which is good for me and 28 putts. I was +1 after 7 holes and +7 after 9 holes.🤬 I have been shooting decent lately and in the last month have taken my handicap from a 13.3 to a 10.9. Playing again tomorrow on my slump busting easy track.

Typhoon Funny.....I see these old(er)guys out there playing from the reg. tees and always wonder WTH are you doing? Then they will step up and hit the ball around 230-250. Straight out there.
Then I watch them hack & chop their way to the green, every green, for their bogies/double bogies. And just forget about ever hitting a Par 3 in reg.. (they should use a choked down driver) their iron games are shit. Oh and that.....they gotta hit irons all the way also, no woods for them.

....'gotta play the back tees because I'm so long!!!' SMFH

Typhoon Got behind a 3some of 'Pros' today....blue tees all the way.

And most of the holes they never pulled driver! WTF??
300yd. Par 4 and they all 3 pulled out irons. And hit in 3 different directions.....none towards green of course.
None of them could hit 300 with driver, btw.

Yesterday I’m watching one group that has a member in it, kid in his late 20’s. I look out and see people on the par 5 ahead of them probably 100 yards from the green. I’m about to say something because I have groups right behind them, and the kid gets up and kills one. Good swing, musta hit it it 300. The next 2 get up… one hits a hybrid with this slow shorty swing, next guys skulls an iron 100 yards.

I said to them, “ ok you gotta be smart about this..Owen, you kill it, let the guys who can’t hit it 150 tee off first and then by the time you get to hit throws guys will be far out of your way. Don’t wait 10 minutes so you can hit first “. He says,” oh yeah… never thought of that…”

Par4QC

Typhoon When playing with Jake, I often do this. I'll walk up to the forward tees and hit. And still have to wait so he can. Some holes we have to wait til the group is actually on the green! And still pray he doesn't hit someone.😄
