Off the tee - great. 13/14 fairways.
Irons - great. 13 GIR.
Chipping - good. 3/6
Sand - great 1/1
Putting - 32 putts, made nothing over 4 feet. Ugh.

Slumpbuster, 41-41-82. Birdied 18 for the second round in a row. Still hitting some shanks from 50 ish yards.
Second round in a row where I played all hybrid set. Still not sold on the 9- pw- gw. And definitely don't like them for short chips when you have to get the ball up.
DonM Nope, 74. Tried to carry a bunker on the longest Par 4, missed it by 5 feet and cost me a double. Had a new putter that developed a little loose wiggle in the hosel area - bothered me. Got worse over the round, and by the end could move the head ever so slightly. Need to take that apart and figure it out.
Guy I texted to play with me never showed up or texted back so I went out myself. By the 5th hole I caught up to 4 drunks from one of our Thursday nite leagues. Joined them. Had a good time playing with them, good guys, love seeing them every week when they come in.
I only planned on 9 but I played the 18 with them. They’re drinking, smoking weed, in no hurry.
Typhoon Could you not just said "joined with a foursome" we already know all the players and their status at any given hole
81, 41/40
Hard course for me to break 80 on, so I'm good with that score.
Only 52* when we started and 59* when we finished, so never tried beating the temp today.
Nothing to brag about, never kept track of any stats. I did have 2-3 drives that were my longest ever on those holes, on that course. Made no sense with the weather. And I was using a Penley Tour Light, S flex shaft!!
Typhoon I used to get them from Rob, wayyy back when he started HOF. Him and Carter were(are??) good buddies.
Penley Tour Light & Harrison Striper were my 2 'go to' shafts. I have some new Stripers also; a couple are already in 455DB heads. Had 1 out a couple weeks ago and they are still an awesome combo!
Also have a couple Stealths, but are painted the colors for the old Ruger heads, gold/dark blue. At 72g they get a bit heavy now.
I’ve wasted the whole month of October, with excellent weather, on the injured list.
First I had a 3 inch incision on my arm to remove a skin cancer. Golfing was not allowed while it healed. Then on the day I got the sutures removed, I managed to split open a part of the incision while working on my golf cart. So more delays for further healing.
Now that I’m okay to play, I’ve had bronchitis for several days, following a cold. Going to get into the doc or urgent care tomorrow.
I had been hoping to play 100 rounds this year, but that’s not going to happen.
81 today in my quota game. Won the middle 6 and the total. New quota is 26.
Played yesterday, shot 83. Lost several shots to shanked chips again. Drove it great. Last round with the high lofted hybrids I think. May restart them and revisit.
What's happened to all of our golfers here? Where is everybody?
DonM Can you read/understand this, knowing what mph means?? They are talking gusts of over 40-50.
I may still go out. I'll just tuck my shirttail in to keep from ballooning.
We did play Saturday. Only 52* at start....coldest temp I've ever played in. Only 59* when done. Wind was up a bit also, so not many problems with leaves on greens. But, can't believe how nice it was out there.
Played a 2 man scramble yesterday. Was a bit too cold for me early on, but did warm up a bit. I used the last of my pro shop credit for new mittens and a toasty warm jacket.
I either hit a spectacular shot or an awful one. My partner was about the same, but luckily we only had 2 holes where we both stunk at the same time.
Didn't realize they were making it a greenskeepers revenge thing, but there were some unique pin positions. Don't recall ever 3 putting in a scramble, but we did so 5-6 times and we were not alone. Apparently there were 2 separate 8-putts....in a scramble. Was kind of funny, but it also slowed the round down a LOT
