Popular Post Kenny B Posted May 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 30, 2021 I've been talking about it all year... it was my goal for this year!! After yesterday's round of 85 that was probably my worst ball striking round in recent memory, I didn't think it would happen today. I started the front nine pretty well; always a good sign, but so often hopes are dashed. Par, Par, Bogey, Par Par. Then on the par 5 #6, I hit a poor drive but it ended up in the fairway just short of a bunker... Lucky! 2nd shot was a good 3H that put me in a 9i range of a back left pin; hit it pin high right. My birdie putt was 10 feet slightly downhill with 2 foot break, most coming in the last couple of feet. Pars on #7 and #8 On the par 5 #9... good drive; 3H short of the pond, a SW to 6 feet and putt made for my second birdie. Front nine score 36... one under par!!! After a Par, Bogey start on the back nine, I birdied the par 3 #12 with a 15 footer. A good drive and decent 2nd shot on the par 5 #13 left me with a 9i to a back pin over a bunker; almost carried the sand, but fell back in the bunker... up and down sandy Par. Scrambled for a Par on #14, then Bogeyed #15. Pars on #16 and #17. I wasn't keeping score; my wife was. I thought I needed just a bogey to shoot my age. All I needed to do on this par 5 #18... my nemesis hole was hit the middle of the fairway like I have most of the day . Nope!! Hit the middle of the left bunker instead. There really is no shot to advance the ball very far since the hole doglegs left with a large tree at the corner; going through the dogleg is in the bunker that runs all the way to the green on the right and pond beyond that. I decided to hit a 9i to the dogleg... flushed it!!! In the next bunker. 3rd shot... same 9i just to get the ball back in play in the fairway. 4th shot was a PW over the green into the rough. 5th shot on the green and 2-putt for a Double Bogey!! I thought I had missed shooting my age by one shot. BUT... Back nine score 38... 3 over par. 36 + 38 = 74 Oh, By The Way (my doctor doesn't like Oh BTWs; you know, go in to see him for one thing and while I'm there... Oh BTW! ) Along with my 3 birdies, my wife had 2 birdies, and the couple we play with also had a birdie each... 7 birdies!! Vanilla Rum shots for everyone but me; I had 7 shots of Wild Turkey Honey Sting!! Thanks again @fozcycle!! Now I need a new goal for the second half of 2021. edingc, M.

Good idea, we'll look into it. I think it would be a very small but elite group, so it needs to be a special badge! tony@CIC, Rickp, Kenny B and 3 others 2 4 Quote G430 Max 10K TSiR1 15.0 Aldlia Ascent 60g TSR2 18.0 PX Aldila Ascent 6og TSi1 20 Aldila Ascent Shafts R T350 5-GW SteelFiber I80 SM10 48F/54M and58K S159 48S/52S/56W/60B Select 5.5 Flowback 35" ProV1 Play number 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
