PING Apologist #9 Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Played 36 today.. 8:20 and 12:50. What a day, ended with a 84 and 83. driver felt good as did the putter. Had issues with the longer irons which really screwed me. I was on a nice run in the beginning though where it was driver wedge every hole. Then came the long par 3 anddd no bueno Hardcore! Good scores too! Maybe look into some hybrids or cross-overs to play instead of the long irons...? Love my 3H and may get into a 4H or cross-over and ditch my 4i...

MaxEntropy Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Played 9 this morning for ball testing. Course was empty when I started which was great for hitting multiple shots. Hit the ball fairly well. Glad I remembered what I learned at Myrtle Beach last month!

Peaksy68 Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 The forecast of 30mph winds and a couple of showers didn't really come to fruition. After watching a couple of groups hit off in horizontal hail and gusts up to 45 mph we decided discretion was a good course of action. Went down to my club's range and played a round on the X Golf simulator. My mate picked Bethpage Black. Actually hit it ok once I got my head around playing indoors. Struggled with short game as it is so different to reality, but actually got a real sense of what my swing was doing on full swings. Was 8 over after 3, finished 17 over but had a lot of fun and a few beers. Much better than getting out in the wind and rain.

Undershooter Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Yesterday was the 1st round of the MS Masters on a tough course. Hit it unbelievably well despite extremely windy conditions. But couldnt make a putt to save my life. It got to be embarrassing by the end of the round. 1. Missed 12 footer 2. Missed 14 footer 4. Missed 8 footer 5. Left a 20 footer on the lip 6. Missed 8 footer 7. Missed 4 footer 9. Missed 10 and 1 footer 12. Missed 9 footer 14. Missed 20 and 2 footer 15. Missed 9 footer 16. Missed 4 footer 17. Left a 20 footer on the lip 18. Missed 9 footer.... Shot 76 and prolly shoulda been 66. Naturally this morning I'm draining everything on the putting greens and we get rained out.

On that 5 day outing another guy had to share a cart with him a second time on the last day and offered the two of us in the other cart $25 to change places and ride with the motor mouth and the guy with me said "Not for $25 but I'll do it for $50". The words had barely left his mouth when the guy pulled out his wallet and handed him two 20's and a 10.

Charli Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Played again today. Was +1 on the front and the opposing team wasn't Happy being I'm an 11 handicap. Ended with a solid 80. I should have been in the 70's all day but had to be a little More aggressive on shots because my partner stunk. lamorak24 and Kenny B 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went to Pinehurst last weekend and played talamore and Dormie incredibly well for my first rounds of the season shooting mid-80s, then midsouth and tobacco road, which I didn't play so well.

Kor.A.Door Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 40-40. Has a couple shots tat cost me today. Also had a bunch of putts burn the edges, the greens aren't quite there yet. Couple weeks they'll be really good. I had about 3 shots today that just went left, I know its the lie on the heads, so I went and had them “fixed†to some better specs, 2 up. That should help get them back to the right a little. Rickp, fozcycle, Kenny B and 2 others 5 Quote Lefties are always in their Right Mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally was happy and loose going in. First tee...toed directly right and then nothing worked all round except for the occasional chip or pitch. Otherwise a crap round that I go ZERO positive data from at all. VERRRRY frustrated, a little pissed and mostly humbled... Fine.

HardcoreLooper Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 My first 18 hole round after surgery, and I did it after 4.5 hours at TFT with the kids. So I guess I'm not surprised that I went 40-44, playing the last six holes in +7. I just flat-out ran out of gas. I'll write up the Arccos experience and post it in the Cobra Connect thread later - gotta get some sleep.

Brutal up here. Today, my wife and I played with my Dodge dealer service manager. He usually plays fairly decent but I think the wind got to him today; multiple triples and quads!! I struggled early to a front nine 46 because well, it was 7:30am, cold and windy. By the turn the sun came out and I warmed up but it was still windy. I managed a 39 on the back nine for a round of 85 that included a double bogey on #18. Tomorrow we tee off at 9:30am... Oh yeah, it's supposed to rain around the back nine.

Nunfa0 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 First round after back surgery, not bad, not bad at all! Thanks Rick, fortunately I didn't need surgery. Just a lot of rest and a few pain killers!

Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy Thanks mate, we are coming into Winter here so I will be taking it easy. Looking to get fit rather than tons of after work practice.

PING Apologist #9 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 40-40. Has a couple shots tat cost me today. Also had a bunch of putts burn the edges, the greens aren't quite there yet. Couple weeks they'll be really good. I had about 3 shots today that just went left, I know its the lie on the heads, so I went and had them “fixed†to some better specs, 2 up. That should help get them back to the right a little. Wondering if I have a similar issue...
