bens197 11,652 Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 Today started out shaky and I couldn't put consecutive shots together. No big deal, first round of the year. I got to 8, hit a 3 wood off the tee on a downhill 382 yard par 4. Wind into the face left me 119 to the back left pin. I hit a drew a nice soft wedge to about 2.5' and made my 4. Yeah...putting wasn't a thing today. Great feeling shot though 5 Quote TaylorMade SIM2 8* Mitsubishi Tensei 1K White 60X TaylorMade SIM2 3 wood Fujilkura Ventus Blue 7-X Mizuno HMB MP20 3i Nippon Modus 3 120S Mizuno Pro 223 4-P Nippon Modus 3 115X Vokey SM8 50, SM9 54 & 60 Nippon Modus 3 120s Scotty Cameron Phantom X 11.5 TaylorMade TP5 / Testing Srixon Z-Star XV Divide Official 1/12 testers for 2022 L.A.B.

dlow206 10,582 Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Made a long putt, about 30 feet. Aimed ten feet left of the hole, hit the putt, it went where i wanted it to, hit the downslope and went in. Hit it maybe a tad too firm but the hole got in the way. 8 Quote Follow my golf journey to break into the 80s Tester for the Titleist TSi Driver Spring 2020 MGS Tester for the Fujikura Motore X Shaft Updated 11/13/2021 Driver: TSi 2 - Autoflex Fairway Woods: TSi2 3 wood, 5 wood - Aldila Ascent 60 S Irons: T300 5 to SW - LAGP AXS Red 85 Stiff double soft stepped Wedges: K-grind 2.0 58 wedge - Xcaliber RT Spin Wedge 100 Putter: SIK DW Armlock - LAGP 180 armlock shaft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revkev 25,157 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Such a ridiculously tight pin between a trap and Hazzard on this par 5, I had gap wedge distance but instead hit pitching wedge to the fat part of the green. Rolled in this very tough downhill 35 footer! The first of several long putts holed. But this one turned a meh 2 over after 5 to an I now have your attention 1 over after 6!That’s my playing partner Milt putting first even though he was much closer.

AmishJason 471 Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 I had to teach myself how to edit putts on Arcoss to show this one, but I made one of my better putts ever yesterday. One of my longest and the highlight of my round. All of my putts were good yesterday, but this was by far the best. My distance control is absolutely spot on with my putter, but I don't always read the break correctly. 5 Quote Driver: Cobra Speedzone 10.5 Mitsubishi AV Blue S flex Wood: Cobra Bio Cell 3-4 Grafalloy Pro Launch Blue (low launch original version) S flex Hybrids: Taylormade GAPR 3 KBS graphite shaft Strata 4 and 5 hybrids R flex Irons: Strata 6-PW R flex Wedges: Texan Classics 52, 56, 60 R flex Putter: Odyssey Red Ball mallet Ball: Srixon Q Star Tour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vegan_Golfer_PNW 4,463 Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Two great shots today. score needs editing in Arccos. Greens were punched and driver was all over the place and short. Drive of the day with the super hybrid. Never could replicate through the round. In need of driver fitting as my super hybrid is going as far as my driver. shot of the day is a 167 yard approach. Had a tree in my way. Played a high fade and finished high.

dlow206 10,582 Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Had another cool shot to highlight. Was 130 out, tree branches straight ahead. Pulled out a five iron, hit a strong punch shot that was no more than 10 feet off the ground, under the branches but over the hill, ran it all the way to the green but went slightly over the green. No way i thought i was going to pull this off. 5 Quote Follow my golf journey to break into the 80s Tester for the Titleist TSi Driver Spring 2020 MGS Tester for the Fujikura Motore X Shaft Updated 11/13/2021 Driver: TSi 2 - Autoflex Fairway Woods: TSi2 3 wood, 5 wood - Aldila Ascent 60 S Irons: T300 5 to SW - LAGP AXS Red 85 Stiff double soft stepped Wedges: K-grind 2.0 58 wedge - Xcaliber RT Spin Wedge 100 Putter: SIK DW Armlock - LAGP 180 armlock shaft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
