My wife and I played with a single that we have played with before. Great guy! I started out good with 4 pars, but bogeyed #5, #6, and #7, then doubled #9 for a 42. On #10 I pushed my ball right behind a big tree with no direct shot at the green. From 165y I hooked the ball around the tree, below the overhanging limb, over the greenside bunker, onto the green but it rolled off the back; got up and down for par. Made a 30' putt on #12 for par after another poor tee shot. Birdied the par 5 #13; stuffed a half SW to a foot. Sandy par on #14. However, I doubled #18 for a back nine 40 and a round of 82. Had fun though; temperatures are going to drop back into the 30's next week. It was like 59 in Salem yesterday. Down to short sleeve shirt for awhile.

Kenny B Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Coldest day this weekend... 45º with 15mph wind out of the north. Even the geese were hunkered down. My wife and I played with a couple that we play with about every other weekend. They both struggle to break 100 but we have fun. He struggled more than usual; hit a lot of trees, which is difficult because we don't have very many. I think he got frustrated; I know the feeling well. I shot 41/38 = 79 for a fairly consistent round...no birdies, but no doubles either. Didn't make many putts; hands were cold. Rattled the stick on the par 5 #13 with a 15 yard pitch shot from behind the green, but just a tap in par. Here's how my play pretty much went all day... I hit a decent drive on the par 5 #18, but topped my hybrid; 3rd shot was 148y from left rough and carry over a huge bunker to a front pin on a narrow finger of green; didn't make it. Had a 15 yard bunker shot to an elevated green; hit to 6 feet and made the par.

CarlH Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Played the Woodhaven Country Club today. A narrow course that has condos on one side of the fairways and a wall on the other. A short par 70 course that rewards good shots but an errant one will tasks you OB or in some trouble that will penalize you. Greens were a bit slow, but rolled well. A couple of bonehead shots and I card a 78. Played with a nice couple who are members there.

Sluggo42 Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Last week my buddy told me I have a really flat swing, and took a video to show me. He was right. So I started trying to get the hands higher and was whacking them good, but really high. My lst400 is a 10° and I had it maxed out to 11.5. So he told me to dial it back down some and that would also lower my spin, and make the ball go further. So I did this morning and hit some monster shots, with the longest at 336. Little wind at my back helped too but still, mashed it. I hit about 5 shots longer than I’ve ever been at this track in the entire year I’ve been playing here. Verrry interesting to be sure. the irons on the other hand, are still a work in progress, as I’m quite fat on them now. So no good news on them for now, but the driver?

pulledabill Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 Sun was shining so I walked the back 9 tonight. 7 pars thru hole 16 then bogied 17 and 18. Great score for me is cold soggy conditions but bogeys on 17/18 is a bit annoying. Ive been hitting range balls and working on my swing a bit. Amazing what practice does for you. Really the first time in almost a year that I can have extended practice sessions since 2 hand surgeries.

perseveringgolfer Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Christmas eve- first game in 3 months and after a bad bout of chronic Bronchitus! Played great, 3 birdies, laser accurate irons (albeit a bit short ) great putting and 'improving' driver, which was either long and straight or push fade. Biggest issue was chipping (again) thinned a few thru the green from 15 yds and only fatted 2. If ONLY I could chip "I could've been a contender, I could've been somebody......" (points for the person who knows the movie) Hoping to play again before new year as the forecast is 46*, so if its dry and no wind I'll play. Struggled with stamina after the illness but this year I will get fitter and stop all the rubbish I put in my body.

DrMJG Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 Should have posted this a few days ago. During break in the weather pattern, we had the chance to play the TPC Champion course in Scottsdale. And, my friend, who is a member, paid! Total 99, Putts 30, 6 penalties from out of bounds, 2 water penalties, 46% fairways Considering I never played there before, I felt fairly good. It was tough for me; I did not play it very well. The OB shots may simply be the result of trying to hit too hard. No rain that day, but, it was quite cool and the course itself was somewhat wet. I tended to pull it left; even the good shots were strong draws. Will play TPC and I will plan it to e a warmer drier day.

edingc Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 - 41 (+5) - 4/7 FIR - 4/9 GIR (1 birdie) - 16 Putts (2 3-putts, 3 2-putts, 4 1-putts) Not often can you be happy with shooting more than the temperature, but when Michigan gives you golfing weather in December, you'll take anything you can get. I played a quick nine holes with my brother-in-law this morning at one of our local Links-style courses, and had a lot of fun despite the temperature. We teed off a little before 10:30 a.m. with the temperature only at 37 degrees and it never got warmer. Unfortunately, the sky was completely overcast and there was a 15 mph sustained wind, which meant I lost feeling in my hands somewhere around the third tee box. I'm very happy with the way I played. Relatively clean card with nothing worse than bogey. The course was wet, greens were punched, bumpy, long and slow. But by the third hole I figured out just to club up twice due to the temps and layers, and hit the ball harder when putting, and things went pretty smoothly after that. No tee markers were out, so we played what we think was a mixture of blue and white tees. I didn't hit either par 3, had two really awful drives, but had three very nice ones I'm happy with. I hit both par 5s (though they were short, only around 500 yards), landing a beautiful 52 degree wedge about three feet past the hole on the second that spun back to 9 feet below the hole. I sank the birdie putt. My new Cobra hybrid was money and got a lot of use from fairway, rough and tee. The baffler rails are awesome. Of the five greens I missed none were in any sort of trouble, with a few that were on the collar or just short of the green. Hitting more greens is going to be critical to improving my scores so I'm keeping close watch on that heading into next season. cksurfdude, THEZIPR23, Kenny B and 3 others 6 Quote Unofficial WHS Handicap: 7.5 / Anti-Cap: 13.0 (Last Updated Feb. 19, 2024) Driver: Callaway Paradym TD (10.5°, -1/N), 45.75", Fujikura Motore X F1 6X | Fitting Post 3 Wood: Cobra RadSpeed Big Tour (14.5°), 43", Fujikura Motore X F1 7X 20° Hybrid: PXG 0211 (2020 Model), 40.25", Mitsubishi Tensei AV RAW White 90X 4 Utility: Cobra KING Utility (2020 Model), 38.5", Aerotech SteelFiber i110cw Stiff 5-PW: Ben Hogan PTx Pro, 37" 7 Iron, Aerotech SteelFiber i125cw Stiff | Club Champion Fitting 50°, 54°, 58°: Edel SMS, V Grind, Nippon Modus 125 Wedge| Official Review Thread Putter: L.A.B.

DawgDaddy Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 If the weather cooperates I will get to play my last round of the year Monday but if not today's round was a 79 with one 3 putt and only one bird. My driver was my best club today followed by the wedges and putter. I had 6 skins and the 3 guys I was playing only had 4 combined so it was a great way to end the year if weather gets us Monday. Only a few short years back I expected to shoot in the 70s, now it is an unexpected treat. cksurfdude, edingc, Kenny B and 1 other 4 Quote Driver - Rogue ST Max Woods - Rogue ST Max 3, 5 & 7 Woods Irons - Rogue ST Max Wedges - Zipcore RTX 6 50° CBX2 54* & 58* Putter - Evnroll ER2 Rangefinder - NX-10 Slope Ball - Pro Tour Drip Bag - Xtreme Cart 7.0 Bag Heather/Red/White Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickp Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 WOW!...........not the shorts but the green, it looks superb, almost artificial. We have hollow tined soft muddy bumpy greens, but I suppose it is December in the NorthThe greens were awesome on this Exec. Rolled great a bit on the slow side but true.Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy MattF, cksurfdude and perseveringgolfer 3 Quote Rick Left Hand, Driver; PXG 0311XF Cypher 50 gr Senior 5 wood; Ping 425, Senior Shaft 55 gr 7 wood; Ping 425, Senior Shaft 55 gr 5 hybrid; Cally Steelhead, Hazardous R2 Irons; Mizuno JPX 923HM 7-GW Recoil 460 F2 Wedges; Titleist S9 54*, Mizuno SW 56* Putter; Waaay too many to list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
