juspoole Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 I played in this unique outing this weekend that raised money for Breast Cancer. We played on teams, but used our own score and played the shots out, however we played from the Ladies Tees. I'm not sure if it was the mindset that we had to use my other team members score for 9 holes, but I played very loose and played some of the best golf I ever have. I had 2 eagles, 6 birdies, and 3 ugly bogeys, but altogether it was for a 64 (7 under). I missed 3 other birdie chances as well, 2 from 15 feet and one from 7 feet. I wasn't keeping tabs, but think I only had 24 putts or so for the day and was on fire with the flat stick. It would be my best round, but since we were playing Ladies Tees, I'm not sure it can be counted as such. The rating from those tees are 69 so it would be more like 5 under par, which would tie my best round. Anyways, a great round for me and all for a good cause. Hopefully I can continue this momentum when I move back to the regular tees.

sp0rtsfan86 Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Broke my shaft on the driver and got it replaced. Played Sunday and drove the ball well until I got somewhat tired. Was first off the tees Sunday but my partner was slow. 3:10 minutes for 2 golfers. I could have finished in 2:15 but it is what it is. Ended up shooting a 91 blowing several 5-10 footers and in general having a really tough putting day where I couldn't get anything to go where I wanted. Other than a few lost drives, I was pretty happy with the way I was hitting the ball. Our league is interesting, my partner quit and another replaced him. Since then, we are 3 and 0 and running away with the 2nd half season. It's always nice to play well, but honestly it feels like teams are blowing up and I'm just able to get bogey/par and walk away. Less I'm earning it and more they're handing it to me. Kenny B, cksurfdude and CarlH 3 Quote Driver: Epic Flash 12 Degree Wood: GBB 3 Wood Hybrid: Razr 4 hybrid stiff stock shaft.

NM01 Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Played a familiar course that had some redesign/layout changes using holes from the other course on Saturday with the old crew. First time swinging a club in 3 weeks and it showed. Irons were a guess most of the day. Driver was better than I figured and short game was like the irons. Been a strange year on the course and in general with me and golf. MattF and cksurfdude 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yadirtydog! Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 I had a goal of 71 at a local course, but made a bogey on 17 and shot 72. I flat out duffed a chip along the green and missed the long par. Still a good round, but my driver has been amazing the last couple of months and has been leaving me with relatively short shots into holes. I give all credit to Super Speed training HA. sirchunksalot, cksurfdude and MattF 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TR1PTIK Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Played the executive course this weekend as I was short on time. The course is practically a goat range at all times, with barely discernible fairways, and greens about as true as shag carpet. Still, it's a nice shakeup from the other courses that places extra emphasis on GIR. It's a 9-hole par 30 course that I looped twice for 18-holes. Played the first 9 at +4 and the second 9 at +5. Hit the ball pretty well for the most part - especially the second time through. I noticed how effortlessly I pounded driver on #7 (the only hole where it comes out of the bag) and made a conscious decision to use a similar tempo and action for all swings the second time around. I gained nearly a full club in distance while producing the same or eerily similar trajectories! Short game was mostly good and though my stats will argue, I'd say I putted pretty well. I used 39 putts for the 18, but considering how poor the greens are (shaggy, ball marks everywhere, dead spots, areas that should be marked as ground under repair) I'll take it. I tried my best not to adjust to the greens and putt with a similar pace to all the other greens in the area. Inevitably, I left several putts short. The putter stroke and the lines I picked where typically good though so I call it a win.

null Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Shot a nice little 39 this afternoon with one birdie and 4 bogeys. Should have been a bit better, but I'm guessing they hadn't moved the cups since saturday morning so there holes were crowned. Had to hit the perfect putt or the ball would break to either side .

Popular Post golfertrb Posted August 13, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 13, 2019 Played Moore Golf and Athletic Club today - I'm not a member but as a perspective one they let you play once. I played the tips (6758) in 105* heat but had the course basically to myself. It's a good course with a couple par 3's of 230+, a drivable par 4, good bunker ing, some good risk/reward holes and good greens. Played really well except for a silly bogey on 18 from the middle of the fairway from 147 yards... And I had just made a great par save on 17. Besides that I played really well and for the most part controlled my golf ball and met some great guys.66FIR 9/14GIR 13/18Putts 25Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk CarlH, THEZIPR23, MattF and 7 others 10 Quote Ping G400 LST 8.5* Graphite Design DI 6 stiff 45" Taylormade RBZ Proto 14.5* Oban Kiyoshi 85 04 42.5" Adams 4555 19* Matrix Ozik Altus 80 S/X 42" Ping G410 Crossover 2 Project X Even Flow Blue 85 6.0 40" Ping i500 4-8 Modus 105 Stiff Ping Blueprint 9-P Modus 105 Stiff Fourteen RM-12 53* and 58* Tour Issue Black Onyx s400 Odyssey Tour Black Series 9 35" Flatso 1.0 Srixon Z Star XV 2018 Ping Hoofer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edingc Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 - 42 (+6) - 4/9 FIR - 2/9 GIR (0 birdies) - 16 Putts (7 2-putts, 2 1-putts) - 1:05 Round Time I'm convinced that you never actually hit good shots in golf, just that your bad shots miss by less! Driver was OK today, not laser accurate or long, but didn't really hurt me much either. Putting was great. Very little stress, most of my second putts were tap-ins. Irons were awful. Didn't hit a single good shot with an iron all round. Kind of carried over into my short game where I left too much work for my putter on several chips. It all balances out. According to GAME Golf my driver and putter had a better than five handicap day. Just need to get the irons back on track. Playing in a work scramble tomorrow. Unfortunately my home course has outings both Saturday and Sunday so not 100 percent sure next time I'll be out on the course in a non-scramble fashion.

Popular Post edingc Posted August 14, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 14, 2019 Took first place in our work department scramble. (Four teams, wasn't much of a real competition but I'll take it, nonetheless.) - 34/34 = 68 (-4) - 7/14 FIR - 14/18 GIR (5 birdies) - 29 Putts (Including one three-putt, sadly...) - 3:30 Round Time I had a terrible warm up on the range. All sorts of weird swing stuff going on that I haven't dealt with in a long time. Specifically today I was flipping a lot at impact because I was very steep into the ball. Couldn't figure it out and it really messed my mindset up for the round. Altogether I ended up gutting out a pretty OK performance. We used my drive/tee shot on something like 12 of the 18 holes, and had I been playing by myself I would have been happy with almost every hole. Had a few good approaches, a good chip or two and several good putts. I'm not going to beat myself up about this in any way. I had a lot of fun, and lost only a single ball (unfortunately on my final non-putt of the day) on a course that usually plays very, very hard, especially when it is windy like today.

Popular Post juspoole Posted August 15, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 15, 2019 (edited) Played in a scramble today with a couple of my customers and all proceeds went to the Folds of Honor that benefits fallen and disabled veterans spouses and children. In terms of the golf, I played really well and had one of my best driving days that I've had in a long time. My team made alot of good putts, but I was able to sink a couple when it counted which was great. We ended up with a 58 for -14 and won the scramble by two shots. I also won a close to pin and long drive, but donated the winnings back to the cause. Really fun day and a lot of money contributed to a wonderful organization and cause.

Popular Post ncwoz Posted August 15, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 15, 2019 (edited) Got out and shot 43 from the tips! Not really sure I have a ton of business playing from the tips in general, but my driver was on today so there was a solid amount of driver to 9i/wedge approaches. My putting has been spot on, and my oh my does that really help the score! Had 15 putts today, probably 2-3 from 10ft+ that dropped. Approach game was a little spotty, my irons have been chunky lately. But all in all great round for me, gotta love days like today!

Popular Post golfertrb Posted August 15, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 15, 2019 Played today at Lincoln Park West - it was sweltering and SLOW. That said, I was paired up with a couple of really great young men - both started their Senior Year of High School today and are members of the golf team. Courteous and well-spoken and good players - one of them made birdie on 18 to shoot under par. For me it was the story of two nines. I opened with a bogey on the par 5 1st and ended on a bogey with one birdie in between (37). The back nine I started to play much better with a crazy card: 5 birdies and 2 bogeys (32).

Over the past 2.5 rounds I've gone +3, -1 (for 9), +1. Season low was previously +2, accomplished a few times but every one of them was scramble-city. Today was nice, fairways and greens.I'd been hitting off the toe all year when I recently realized that my back foot was pretty square at set-up. I theorized that not only was my turn compromised but this set up encouraged me to take the club back slightly outside the target line.All I did was flare the back foot open maybe 15° more. Although I didn't change my heel's placement, this offered the sensation that my foot had dropped an inch or so back. My takeaway felt much more natural, like seasons past, and my downswing more powerful and coming from the inside.Strong draws all day long, just like yesteryear. Rather than hope for the best as I had been, now I wanna go on the attack. PMookie, THEZIPR23, edingc and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Golfspy_CG2 Posted August 15, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 15, 2019 Decent night in men's league last night, 46 that was marred by triple and double both from really horrible lies and bad decisions with the wedge shot attempted on each. Driver short as usual but on point, 5/7 fairways. Hit the new 919's very well. I was 3/4 with them when shooting at a GIR. The 4th one came up maybe 10 yards short and I was probably feeling a bit cocky ejbt them and went I club less than I should have...ha Putting returned to a very confident stroke. Several putts from the 15 to 30 feet range that litteraly were tap ins. Will tee it up again this morning in the Sr. League and be playing golds. So the irons should see even more action.

Popular Post MmmmmmBuddy Posted August 15, 2019 Author Popular Post Share Posted August 15, 2019 Played with the assistant super last night after work. We played the forward tees for a change of pace. 5209 64.8/110 I had 1 really bad double when I made a terrible swing with a wedge and buried it under a lip of a bunker, but other than that, things went pretty smoothly. 5 Birdies and an Eagle for 67. I missed 5 putts inside of 10 feet, so that could have been something special.... Oh well.. There is always today.... edingc, MaxEntropy, cksurfdude and 8 others 10 1 Quote Driver - Ping G430 Max 9° | Ventus Blue TR Hybrid - ZX 16° & 18° | GD Tour IZ S 2 Iron - ZU65 17° | AeroTech SteelFiber 110icw S Irons - ZX7 MKII 4-Pw | TTDGTI S400, std length 1° flat Wedges - RTX 6 Tour Rack 50° 54° 58° | TTDGTI S400, std length 1° flat Putter - L.A.B.

Just remember... triple double in golf = bad; triple double in basketball = good.

Popular Post perseveringgolfer Posted August 15, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 15, 2019 won my quarter final club singles matchplay today by 6&5, sounds good but you know that game where you play badly but your opponent plays worse? and we're both single figs. Nice to win but I'd rather win by playing well as opposed to my opponent 'falling on his sword'............but I suppose I've also been there many times.
