fatshot It must be fun to have a 35 yard shot from the front bunker towards the water on 18.

      I was having iron issues the last month. Lucky to find a green. Over the past 5 days I worked it out finding the flaw. Played our front 9 today and it was all fixed. Sorta suprised that I played so well actually 😂.
      Shot a -6 28. And parred the last 3 holes. Accuracy was great but distance control was a key. It’s was weird to pull off shots the way I pictured and have a good result.

      Made an eagle 2 on our par 4 3rd hole by holing it from 80 yards. Funny thing is I hit the shot exactly where and how I wanted to hit it.
      Every putt was inside 15 feet. The last 3 pars were makeable birdies and the other par 5 I lipped out the eagle.

      It was nuts.

            Agree!! I would've preferred that though to the penalty stroke I had to take for pulling it into the water!! 😞

                Par4QC The guy that sets the cups pisses me off because he doesn’t put the metal thing over the new cup to tamp it down. All our cups are raised and a lot of putts fall off as they get to the cup.

                    Typhoon That's the case everywhere. It's the reason you see, on TV, the ball rolling perfectly and then just stop at the cup.
                    Open hole.....evaporation/drying out.....soil will rise.

                    And there will be a bump where they replaced the plug in the previous hole. Because they poured water on it.

                        Typhoon are you fucking shitting me??? Someone kick that guy for me, he's not even half assing the job.

                          88 with 44 putts, also couldn't chip. Only missed one fw but c'est la vie

                            Typhoon That happens at our course. They have 2, but one doesn't have the metal plate and you can usually tell which 9 was done with which.....except when they don't use the plate with either hole cutter.

                            Cracks me up because for 2+ seasons now they have been using new hole locations to let the standard pin locations heal.

                              Weirfan I use something similar, only my Skechers are slip in. I meant to say, no more shoestrings for me. However, my golf shoes are FootJoy and tie.

                                I shot 40-39-79 this morning at Maumee Bay State Park in Oregon, OH. Didn't play all that great, but chipped and putted VERY well, which was good, b/c this Arthur Hills links style course is one of the toughest we play (used to host the US Open local qualifier there!). Only 4 GIR, but 27 putts and 1 birdie!!
