sirchunksalot Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 I played my last Golf for next 2 weeks. I need to self quarantine. I came into contact with guys who were in contact with a family that have tested positive.It’s a second hand contact but a few of us have decided that it’s best to be safe and not spread it further.Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpyStay safe buddy, I hope you and the others are ok.

patrickleeleep Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 (edited) Well over the past two months I've had some PTO to use up before it expired so I've been able to play more often and instead of 1-2 times a week its been 2-3 times. Yesterday I got a late round in despite everyone in quarantine. Played what I would call my home course which I normally and have been trending nicely with my game as long as I could fix a couple mistakes on holes. Finally shot broke below 85 again after club changes, etc. My 2nd best score ever. 1st round using a new ball too. Bridgestone Tour B RX-S Total- 82 Out- 41 In- 41 6/14 FIR (42.9%) 8/18 GIR (44%) 4 Birdies (most ever in a round) 32 Putts (3 3-putts, 7 1-putts) 1 Sandy which ended up being a birdie Edited March 24, 2020 by patrickleeleep Kenny B, fixyurdivot, MattF and 4 others 7 Quote Driver- 2016 M2 12* Tensei Red Stiff Wood(s)- G400 5 Wood 16.9*/ 7 Wood 21.1* Alta CB Stiff Irons- JPX 900 Forged 6-GW NS Pro 950GH Wedges- RTX 3 54* 588 RTX 2.0 58* RTX 4 64* Putter- Spider Tour Black Instagram- @patrickleeleep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fozcycle Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Shot a 40/43:83 with no birdies today that will probably be my last round at Babe Zaharias GC today. My driver gave me issues today as I just could not find my swing. I did, however, strike my irons well. Oh, and another thing, I played the Callaway ERC Soft all day today. Definitely not shorter than my Maxfli’s.

On #12 par 3, I dropped one 14" behind the hole - figuring I had the KP for sure. One of the others hit in front of the flag, hit the stick and was 12" below. The other two were within 6 ft.

pulledabill Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 I gave in and started playing again since there are or should I say were fewer peeps on my course than out and about walking my hood. My course was only members only and no rentap carts, but they changed back to public play and carts. It is flat out crowded! Playing decent and this afternoon I played 9 wirh two balls to see if I could get below par. I didnt. Parred every hole. I think I will play after work most nights this coming week as I suspect the rain on its way will keep people away.

MattF Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 First round at Windmill yesterday and it was a tale of 2 nines. Shot a fairly blistering 41 on the front followed by a very disappointing 49 on the back for a 90. I just fell apart and my back started aching. We'll see what happens on Sunday. revkev, sirchunksalot, cksurfdude and 2 others 5 Quote In the bag: Driver: Darkspeed X 9° UST Mamiya LIN-Q M40X Blue 7F4 Fairway: Apex UW 19° & 21° Project X HZRDUS Smoke RDX Black 5.5 Irons: JPX 923 HMP 5-PW UST Mamiya Recoil 95 F4 Wedges: T-22 Denim Copper 48°, 52° & 56° UST Mamiya Recoil 95 F4 Putter Sycamore 005 Wide Blade Bag: Fairway 14 stand bag Balls: Chrome Tour Cart: CaddyLite ONE Ver. 8 God Bless America, God save the King, God defend New Zealand and thank Christ for Australia!

PMookie Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 80. Ugh. Played the back first, 42, then 38 on the front. Hit a bucket after the round to work things out. Drove 75 miles, just across the border to Vicksburg, Mississippi, so I could play.

pulledabill Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Decided at about 430 pm to hit the course. Windy and rainy most of the day and I wasnt feeling it, but I need to walk anyways so off I went. 3 cars in the lot and 2 of them belonged to employees. Never saw another soul and never a drop of rain. Played 2-3 balls along the way and spent some extra time to hit my 3w from the fairway along the way trying to figure it out. Played well minus my wedge game which has been off for some reason. Distance is throwing me for a curve.

I've struggled with the 3W in the past as well, but I started following this guy on Insta @jakehuttgolf he's the golf coach at Stanford and puts quick tips on Insta that have really been helpful, especially the one on the 3W. Last time I played, a couple weeks ago, I hit my 3W - 267. Sounds like you've got it figured out, but just thought I'd tell you about the guy on Instagram.

CarlH Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Started out strong with a birdie on the par 5 first hole and finished the 9 with a 38. Got a phone text that distracted me for the rest of the round and I lost focus. 3 doubles on the backside and shoot 83 for the round. On another note, the number of COVID 19 cases has been doubling in our county and I've made a conscious decision to quit playing golf as a group game for awhile, even though we are good about maintaining distances. sirchunksalot, THEZIPR23, cnosil and 6 others 9 Quote Driver: Rogue ST Max (10.5* set at -1 and neutral) -- Mitsubishi Tensai Blue 55g R shaft Fairway: Rogue ST Max 3 wood (16.5*) and Heaven Wood (20*)-- Tensai Blue 55g R shaft Hybrids: Rogue ST Max 5H (23*)--Tensai Blue 55g R shaft Irons: Apex CF19 6-9, PW, AW -- KBS Tour Graphite TGI 70 shafts R +1/2 inch 3* upright Wedges: Edison 53* and 57* KBS PGI 80 Graphite +1/2 inch 2* upright Putter: L.A.B.

revkev Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Had a heartbreaking 82 today. My buddy and me, both 63, a 10 and a 5 took on a Yankee minor league trainer and their triple A strength coach (also a certified TPI trainer). These guys are 29 and 33 and a 4 and a 14. They played the tips, we played up a set us v them even 5 dollar Nassau. Great young guys, fun match - my 10 shot 78 and we tied them. I did have some contributions including the day’s highlight, a hole out from 125 for Eagle when one of them was inside 5 feet for birdie. That was great. Hard to imagine the strength coach works with guys like Aaron Judge in the weight room. :) According to ARCOSS my approach game handicap was 15.5. :( I missed 13/18 approaches left. It seemed like all of those were with 6 or 7 iron. On 18, a par 5, I had 215 to the center into the wind, up hill, couldn’t reach, lots of trouble around the green. I said I’m hitting 6 iron. Tried to hit a cut and blistered the most beautiful 160 yard 2 yard draw you’d ever want to see. :) Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy Kenny B, Rickp, sirchunksalot and 6 others 9 Quote Taylor Made Stealth 2 10.5 Diamana S plus 60 Aldila R flex - 42.25 inches SMT 4 wood bassara R flex, four wood head, 3 wood shaft Ping G410 7, 9 wood Alta 65 R flex Srixon ZX5 MK II 5-GW - UST recoil Dart 65 R flex India 52,56 (60 pending) UST recoil 75's R flex Evon roll ER 5 32 inches It's our offseason so auditioning candidates - looking for that right mix of low spin long, more spin around the greens - TBD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
