after 2 great lessons 4 weeks ago, and never hitting a ball since then, expectations were high. Played badly, really badly, pulls, thins, fats, heels etc. It's as if I've gone backwards. quick chat with the pro afterwards and he said you need to practice what I showed you before another lesson- wise words.
Feel quite down about my game after today, will get some practice in this week as the forecast is dry.
This game just rips the guts out you one day then brilliant the next. 
Consistency and playing more is key.

Of course
That’s why we stay with it the game, we enjoy pain

Insert meme of the most interesting man on earth: “I don’t always hook my drive out of bounds, but when I do, I hook the second one out, too, then duff my 5th, hit my 6th to the wrong side of the green, and then finish with a three putt.”

Sigh.

I actually got out today and played 9 holes. The score didn’t at all represent how well I struck the   Ball. I shot a 47 that could’ve easily been a 41. Putting was terrible. I really really felt I could’ve turned 5 bogeys into 5 pars. Bad judgments and being overly aggressive on the first putt

season looks promising 

Keep it in the short stuff

Played 18 today, 3rd time since October. Hit the driver better than I have in a while. Didn’t have one 3 putt so happy about that. Iron game was hit and miss, but with Bermuda fairways this far north, you pretty much have dirt to hit off of.

Yeah, my game is usually pretty hit or miss too, but the the words are actually positioned as "misshit".

36/41 at Mesa Del Sol today.  It was my best round of the winter season.  My only double came on 18 and it was my only 3 putt of the day.

Played 9 and used it to hit a LOT of shots, and test some balls. I had the two new Mizunos, ERC, Z Star XV, and the AVX. I’m still a HUGE fan of AVX after today, and the ERC ain’t too shabby, although I’m not the biggest fan of its feel off irons on full shots as it feels too soft, but it was pretty long off the driver, and pretty comparable off irons. The Mizunos were nice, but not significantly different. The AVX is the leader in the clubhouse for now.
Best shot was my final iron shot. 154 into the wind to the center of the green. I grabbed my HM Pro 9 iron and I thought it probably wouldn’t get to the green... Boy, I FLUSHED it! It felt SO good! Dead on line, landed pin high! Wooo! Unreal!

I believe i struck the ball well today.  I have had Slice problems with my driver, but no slices today.  I was straight as an arrow, very little roll, due to some wet turf, but that was fine with me.  2 blow up holes and 4 total mishits.  something for me to build on for next time out!

Shot a 10-over 45 on the red course at Saskatoon Golf Club outside of Grand Rapids for my first real round of the year. Never played there before, though my brother-in-law holds this course in high esteem. We had absolutely beautiful weather today, wish I could have played more.

Hit one fairway all day, and only two greens. Going over my GAME Golf stats, I can count seven strokes I could have cut. Hopefully with a little practice I will get rid of those strokes.

Really only hit two bad shots today. Snap-hooked a five iron on hole three that thankfully stayed only a little left of the green. On the only par 5, I chunked my second shot with my 4-iron and only advanced it 35 yards or so.

On an interesting note, leaving the pin in cost me one stroke today. I didn't notice the pin was leaning slightly on a three footer on No. 7. Hit a nice putt that would have dropped in the right side. Instead, it brushed the pin and lipped out two inches past the hole.

Off to a great start at 1 over par through #7

 

then the wheels fell off and rolled aimlessly down the fairway into the water and never came back.

 

Doubles, triple, OB, chunk, shank, putter goes south....sigh .... could only muster 2 pars on the back nine.  Not a pretty day.
