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...

Well, today I got to play. Went around 4 times, shot a 38, 39, 45, & 42. I figured that I got off to a crap start as I went double on the first 3 holes on that first go round, then I got settled down and started hitting shots better.

Went out yesterday after not playing since Jan, 91 deg and some humidity in northern VA, slight breeze helped. Walked with pushcart--bad idea, very bad. My golf game reflected the bad idea, some good but many tired fat old guy shots.😎

13 holes as expected today - just didn't have enough time to play the last 5 before my vaccination appointment (AstraZeneca, for what it's worth - still early, but no issues yet). I played a bit better today - +3 for the 13 holes - with one birdie at the 11th notable for the approach shot being my first on-course shot with a new 46° Vokey SM8 wedge (95 yards, to 6 feet).

Did you get your new irons Martin?

Not yet - they were ordered at the same time as the wedges, but are taking a bit longer to get to the pro shop.

What did you go with?

CallMeAl What did you go with?

i210s - 5-9 with slightly tweaked lofts to cover a wider range of yardages (which allows me to go with 4 wedges), AWT 2.0 regular shafts, orange dot. Midsize grips, which is the first time I've tried them - initial impression from the wedges (which also have midsize) is that I should have gone with the larger size earlier...

47 on the 9 holer I've been playing every other week or so. Only 17 putts - no 3 putts. The lesson I took last week really helped. My driver on the other hand… usually the best part of my terrible game. But today was rough. I didn’t even see the ball off the face most of the time. Lost a bunch of balls off the tee

Played 18 with my son and a new golf buddy. The guy just moved to Phoenix from the Toronto area. He got paired up with us randomly a couple of months ago and was a decent human being. We adopted him and he now has 4 rounds in with us.

Played a city of Tempe course called Ken McDonald. Shot 43-42 with a 9 on one of the par 5's on the back nine. Hit 10/14 fairways and 7 GIRS. Not the best round but a solid round.

5 rounds of 9 hole match play this weekend. We finished 2nd in our flight which was not too bad considering we got hammered our first match and only tied the 2nd, but won the next 3. I pretty much played every other hole really well. Struggled with the G400 SFT a lot so maybe time to shorten it up to 44.5"

Quick 9 this morning. Shot -3. Still had the flip lefts going. Last couple holes I started to figure out the problem. Went to the range after and worked it out.

Yep, huge problem you have. 🙄 You should probably just give the game up.....

Finished with 3 pars during a slow 9 so there’s hope.

Sr. Scramble today. +1 with a 9 on a par 4 from 80 yds.......Don't Ask!

Shot 47-40 87. We had the course almost to ourselves. We had a threesome in front of us and 2 foursomes in front of them. No one behind us until the 4-5 hole. We played in just over 3 hours. Those groups were playing super fast for foursomes. Its funny how fast you can play this game if you have players who play ready golf. All it takes is one group to slow down the whole course.

37-38. Lousy day off the tee, and everywhere else. 86*, humid, light breeze, and super slow groups ahead that I could not play through. No rhythm. Long waits. Long round.

Old guy(very old guy!) just ahead of me holed one on the last hole, Par 3! Acted like he does it daily, lol.

The first round of our City Senior 2 Man Scramble today and our +1 puts us in a tie for 14th overall out of 31 teams. The good news is we are tied for 1st in the Second Flight. My partner is a solid single handicap and I wasn't a whole lot of help. Made a couple of mid-length putts, hit a few nice approaches, and then there were the fuglies. This is being played on Notah Begay's design at the Indian Casino and it's always in plush, gorgeous shape. They pump in the water from the casino's treatment plant so don't lick your balls.

Shot 94 today. Driver works, 5h works, putter works. Everything else sucks and I've even lost my chipping touch around the greens. Golf Hell. If it wasn't for the camaraderie of our group, I'd consider quitting. Need to stop dwelling on how good I used to be.

sdandrea1 Well, I'm no Pro, nor am I credentialed for instruction, so this is just an observation.......you may well need new clubs.
