well this Morning saturday i was plus 3 at the seventh hole and tooke a doubel, triple , double, and walked off course came home and Broke acouple clubs.
I played last night and managed a 43 on the front despite atrocious putting again (22 putts ). We then played 8 holes on the back (skipped 16 because it was too dark to see) and I was 3 over on those.
Good luck with your matches GG! Let us know how if you can vanquish the ex-coach.
Played in a 2-man best shot today. Rained for 13 holes worth, and then they called it and gave our money back. This weather has really been lousy this spring in the midwest.
I played my first 18 yesterday in over a week and shot a 78. I played pretty good at times but my putting let me down. (My 8802 is having a new grip put on ) And for the second day in a row I missed an Eagle putt of less then 20 ft, with both of them coming on the same hole...
Teed off at 6:15 am. Just my bro-in law and myself.
Front- 1 double, 3 bogies, 1 birdie- 39 (par 35)
Back- 2 bogies, 7 pars- 39 (par 37)
78. I have been playing well, keeping my driver in play- On the back I missed 1 fairway and 2 greens. My putting is so so.
i shot an 81 yesterday at a par 72 course. I play on the high school golf team and it was our conference tourney. I could have shot an 78 but i missed 2 birdies by like half and inch. I also had one stupid double bogey. But im happy because i tied for third out of 66 people playing. I shot 42 on the front, 39 on the back
Well I played in my 2 matches(best ball in pairs and single) yesterday in the pouring rain
Played like a hack.... but still won
My hook came back on the 1st 9 I played managed to get it to a draw by the time we finished .
And my putting... as usual was terrible... so were my GIR 9 on each round!
In the 2nd round (the most important because it was single matchplay) I was 4 up with 4 to go then I choked and had to sink a 60cm putt on #17 to win 2 and 1.... and it just fell in the right edge.
ended up shooting 2 82's

you won, don't sweat it.
I think I'm developing GGputtingitis. Last 2 times out, can't make a thing, regardless of distance. Game is going to go south if it doesn't straighten up. Need to get if fixed before I play my OG round and running out of time.
I played nine at Mick Riley today, a local short course. I started great..eagled the first hole. I hit a beautiful 5W over the huge tree, landed soft on the green and ended up pin high about 10 feet away. I made the putt in the center of the hole.
I just traded my 975F fairway woods for 904F's. I wouldn't have got the eagle otherwise! I switched from 13.5 and 16.5 lofts to 15 and 19 and switched from steel to graphite. I couldn't believe how great the shot with the 5 wood felt...very very soft and I hit it long, straight, and plenty high enough to easily make it over the huge tree.
So, what did I shoot after getting an eagle on this easy course? 3 over...****! It was a roller coaster round for sure.

Join the club. 45 putts in my last two tours through the front nine at the home course. I putted a little better on the back nine each day, but still, totaling close to 40 putts in each round is no fun.
Tonight I managed to putt slightly better, needing 32 putts in my round of 82. Somehow I managed to miss a 1 foot putt on #1, but managed to get away with only one three putt the entire round. I hit some really nice shots but couldn't get a birdie putt to fall, as I chopped up the front nine a little bit, but recovered OK on the back to hit 6 of 9 GIR. 42-40.
Nice job GG. Will your scores hurt your chances of making the interprovincial team, or does the fact that you won each match sort of override them?
I played the best round of the year on probably the most humid day also. A nice 75 with 13/14 fairways hit, 10 GIR and 30 putts. 3 bogeys, and the rest pars. I missed a short 1 foot putt that im still beating myself over. I hit a great second shot and got a little antsy and pushed it right. DOH!
I tried out my new putter( odyssey dfx) - what a piece of junk!... I couldn't putt with the thing..
I have the odyssey dfx and I love it. It took me a little practice to get used to the weight difference over my old Ping. After I dialed that in, I have been stroking it great. Give the DFX another chance, spend a little time with it on the range and I am sure you will enjoy the results. Good luck.
