No3PuttLaLa 1,948 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 The Golf Club at Echo Falls Hole 12 is a 489 yard Par 5. Crushed the M4 348 yards dead straight. Followed with an 8i that hit the green 8" from the pin and rolled to 5' with a chance for Eagle. The putt had stopped on the upside of a hill just behind the pin. Left my eagle putt 1' short. But cleaned up for a Birdie. Could have been one of my best 8i shots I've ever had. 2 Quote Driver: M4 10.5* / Evenflow Blue 6.0 Stiff / Golf Pride MCC +4 Midsize Woods: M6 3W 15* / Evenflow Blue 6.0 Stiff / Golf Pride MCC +4 Midsize Hybrid: M4 Rescue 19* / KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype 85g Stiff / Golf Pride MCC +4 Midsize Irons: Z585 4-AW / KBS Tour 90 - Regular +1" / Golf Pride MCC +4 Midsize Wedges: CBX - 56* & 60* / KBS Hi Rev 2.0 - Regular +1" / Golf Pride MCC +4 Midsize Putter: Sigma 2 Tyne 4 Platinum / Superstroke Pistol Ball: Project a Bag: Hoofer 14 Link to post Share on other sites
revkev 22,577 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Shot 34 on the front and hit a poor approach shot on 10, short, left in the rough. I had 40 feet, up a false front on to a tier in the green. Hit a beautiful chip into the front, up and ready get up 2 feet short of the hole. The par kept my round moving forward as the back 9 became a take of par saves with lots of holes into the wind until we finally turned down on 17 and 18. Had a great look for birdie on 17 that just missed and a four footer on 18 to finish the round in style.

goaliewales14 1,340 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 I was playing in a Ryder Cup format tournament over the weekend and we get to the toughest par 5 on the course. I drive it 320 yards over water to land it in the middle of the fairway. Then hit a punch 8i from 142 ,to keep it under the 25 mph wind, back over the water to the picture below. (I'm on the right.) We HALVED the hole with eagles. 4 Quote Driver: PXG 0811 X Gen 2 3 Wood: Taylormade SIM 3 Utility Iron: Srixon U85 4i – AW: Taylormade P760 SW: Vokey SM7 M Grind LW: Cleveland RTX 4 X-Low Putter: Ping Vault Oslo Link to post Share on other sites

ANKOR7 25 Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 I told myself while looking where I wanted to land the ball, I wanted to fly the bunker. I actually pulled it off, chipped on and 2 putted for par. This was the best round I've played to date, and just started playing last October.

GeekingGolf 1,791 Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Played in my first best ball tournament last Friday. My shot of the day was making a 30 foot putt for birdie using Aimpoint. We shot 8 under which is really good considering we had a group of 3 players...me as a 9 hc, friend as a 14 hc and random guy as 22 hc. We made tons of putts over 12 feet for birdie using Aimpoint I taught them all how to do it. It was the most fun I have had on the golf course in a long time.

fozcycle 11,878 Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Today’s round was cut short with heavy rain on the 8th Hole.....BUT, on the 4th Hole, my drive was a 3 Hybrid, leaving 102 yards to the back Pin. I sent my PW over the green OB. I tried again with my Gap Wedge(49*). It sailed beautifully over the lake towards the Pin, took one bounce and disappeared. My buddies were on the green and threw their hands up into the air. My shot bounced once on the green then into the cup!

Kor.A.Door 5,839 Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Par 5, 3 wood, 3h, 55° hit the flag on the fly, it’s a blind shot about 15 yards up so you can’t see the bottom of the flag or the green, we though the ball bounced off the flag back toward the front right of the green because it hit it solid on the fly from 75 yards, pull up to the hill and the back is 6 inches from the hole. My buddy says don’t even bring the putter, and that’s how you fix putting issues. 3 Quote Lefties are always in their Right Mind Link to post Share on other sites
revkev 22,577 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Shot a solid 76 today - 37 on the front but then hit a rough spot on the back where I made 4 straight bogeys. After a nice par on 15 to get off the train I nipped a tree off the tee on 16 and lost some yardage. NP, par 5, caught a great lie in the right rough, hit a great fairway wood to 105 and then came my shot. Uphill into a little breeze took the extra club and hit PW to 2 feet, kick in birdie. Shot of the day. Had 15 footers for birdie on 17 and 18 but didn’t convert. My friend Dennis though had the shot of a lifetime. Dennis is the epitome of long and wrong. Dennis hits a screaming liner off the tee into the next tee marker, these are substantial wooden things but he hits it so hard that it flies out of the ground 10 feet forward. His ball ricochets high and right into the trees right of the tee box, rattled around there and drops about 10 yards behind where we were hitting from. He then hits two monster three woods and a lob wedge to 10 feet. Lipped our for par.

Sluggo42 6,040 Posted November 2, 2018 Author Share Posted November 2, 2018 Beast driver today, but oddly my shot of the day was a short chip shot. A flop shot actually. Probably 15 feet right of the green, and a super far right flag, with a long downhill roll. So I did the 50% flop swing and it dang near landed in the cup, and stopped within a foot.

Sluggo42 6,040 Posted November 16, 2018 Author Share Posted November 16, 2018 Hit my drive into a tree I normally hit over, and it dropped the ball right at the base of the tree in the bark. So I had 190 up hill to an elevated green. So, I grabbed my Hybrid which had just gotten me a birdie on the last hole. So I called the shot to my buddy and said “hold my beer” dang if it didn’t get on the green and let me save par. We always say “hold my beer” when we try an I’ll advised shot, but we’re not really drinking them 1 Quote MavriK Sub Zero 9* on EvenFlow RipTide 6.0 50g Speedzone 3-wood on Tensi blue S F8 5/6 wood on Aldila NxT GEN MLT R Combo iron set -8,9,per Icon 5,6,7 PtxPro 4-UiHi on Recoil 780 ES f4 Stiff shafts (best clubs ever) Equalizer 50°, 54°, 60° wedges on Recoil 780 f4 ER3 34” ProV1x .Org 14 cart bag Adidas Tour 360 shoes Link to post Share on other sites
