We played in the MGA championship this morning, 2 flights, champ flight from the tips, and 2nd flight from the blues. The tips play around 7000 yards. Worst day to play the back tees, it was 35 degrees at the start, so the ball was going nowhere. Started out ok, I was 2 over through 5, and striped a drive on 6, had 260 in to the par 5, tried to hit hybrid, bad shot went about 45 yards, had 215 hit another hybrid, hooked it into the trees. Took a drop put it on in 5, then 3 putted. Then choked on seven for another 8, ended with a 47 on the front, then the back nine shot 41, on 18, I parred my second ball for a double. It was

Finally, a decent round.....shot 41/46:87 and garnered a tie for 2nd with +2......my points have declined from 23 to 18 which helped. I had a 5 Hole birdie run from #9 to #13.

It rained hard all over the island last night so everything was soggy and we teed off at 8am. Cart path only today so if you were in the right side of the fairway, you were enjoying a walk.

 

Playing partner literally swung out of his shoes on the 2nd hole, he walked away from the tee box, and the sole of his shoe stayed, it was hilarious, they just completely separated from the upper part of the shoe. Had to drive back to the clubhouse so he could buy a pair. Lucky there was a club behind us playing a 5 some so we just drove to our tee shots after he got his new kicks.

 

Fairways reopened on the back 9 thanks to the hot Hawaiian sun. Shot a bad 41/44 for 85 with a snowman on the back 9. Had 5 or 6 decent looks at birdie but couldn't hole them, and I 3 putt bogeyd 3/4 par 3s. Also drove one about 280 to be 50 yards out on a short par 4 and skulled my 60 over the green and OB.

 

The Mizunos were absolutely on fire, but need to do more work with the new driver shaft to get used to the stiffer bend profile. Also forgot to mention, we played with our entire 6-man company, and 2 friends. First time we all got to play together, even though we had to separate into two groups, it was great. Best of all, boss said the company would pay our green fees

None of the other guys break 90, but they don't play often unless I bother them about it. One just started a few months ago, and the closest to breaking 90 has a messed up shoulder. We normally go out once a month as a foursome, but the other 2 joined us this time, including the boss man.

Got out for our Monday 18 hole group @ Belle Glade. Shot 41-41 smooth 82. Oddly got off tee and approach shots OK but putting was poor. Used the Odyssey 7 Oworks and distance was OK but had problems with the line, NO 3 jacks or doubles. Missed a few birdies that should have no problem but it is what is is.

Playing Wednesday with the MLA ProXdream see how that goes. Unfortunately different course.

I am done with golf for the winter as all courses have closed up shop. This season was pretty awful as I haven't played consistently in about two years. However, I think a good offseason will probably help plus getting a putting green inside will help me dial in the putter again.

Played a very slow round yesterday 3:15 mins front nine alone and 2:30 mins back nine. I had 9 birdies, 2 back to back and the rest were every other holes. Here's the twist, I bogey and doubles the rest. Ended up shooting 76. So I either one putt or 3 putt every hole. One minute was a stud the next I was a dud. One hole knock my approach to a tap in, then it took 4 shots to get on the green the next hole.

 

Luckily we played in front of the beer girls, they were out playing after their event was over. They couldn't play to save their shoelaces but no one complained we're all enjoying their presence. Secretly, I'm sure all the guys were betting when their tight shorts will burst every time the move.

Played 18 with temps @ 54* at tee time and windy & cloudy. Not nice. Front 9 was a surprising 42 in those conditions. Back 9 from hell, 46 and was really worse than than. Parred last 2 holes to keep it at 46 and had decent birdie opportunities on those holes that I missed.

Well that golf!!

MLA was OK. On the front 9 made a couple nice putts back 9 I was off on every aspect of the game so not fair to judge anything.

But I was dressed nice

Went out to the ground ordnance launch facility for some urgent testing and shot a nice 39. Hung with my swing for about 4 holes to make it through without any major mistakes then hit the gas once I found it.

 

 

New driver and putter made quite the impact.

 

 

If only there was enough daylight to finish up and go for a number that starts with a 7

And if I didn't have this darn 2-ball putter I might have been a few lower.

Really starting to get the swing dialed in now, with a shorted backswing, and a strong follow through- think Jon rahm

 

Load right instep on backswing, and transfer to left at impact. No loss of distance and dare I say, perhaps a small gain?

 

It feels like a half backswing, but my bud says it's a 3/4.

Much more controlled, very slight draw, piercing flight.

Crisp I guess is a good word.

 

Anyways- the search for the perfect swing carries on

Getting more and more frustrated each time I play. Pitching woes continue, toe hits in my irons, and now I am struggling to hit fairways. Had a couple of weeks of for a variety of reasons and hoped that would help but it didn't. Going to have to do some research and find a new instructor.

Early morning tee time, cold for us 48*. Suffered on the front 9 shot 44 putting was atrocious. Long wait on the turn as we did the front in 1:35. Back 9 a lot better shot 40 for 84. Putting improved a little but still not good.

An old friend showed up this morning, Mr. Draw and his good friend Mr. Hook! Mr. Draw I was happy to see but Mr. Hook not so much. I'm playing a 9 holer tomorrow and want The draw to stay. Just have to control it better.

Played ok started up putting well then when the driver came on nicely I stopped putting well. It was 38 out and wind was 2 club wind. I watched the wind knock down more shots that I have ever seen. Would have scored better if I didn't have so many well struck balls knocked down.

7:28 tee time so foggy couldn't see 50 yards. Surprised they let us out. We were 1st out and Ambassador stayed behind us until we cleared 1st green B4 he let next group out.

Shot a 42-42 84. Greens were terrible, recently over seeded and fuzzy an sand covered. 2 three putts and I rarely 3 putt. 1 birdie and missed 2 birdies that were caused by the bad conditions of the greens. Tee to green I was somewhat pleased. Played the Titleist AVX and was very pleased with this ball.

Okay..... we started at 10:40 and it was 40*.... too damn cold for me! I HATE cold!

 

I shot 39 on the front (+5) and 43 on the back (+5) for an 82 total. After that, we decided it would be a great idea to play 9 more...lol. So we played the back 9 again, and I shot 43 again. I'll take it seeing as how I HATE cold weather.... and the beer lasted until we were done!

 

It was a great day, and I had a ball!
