ncwoz Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 7 hours ago, edingc said: - 44/40 = 84 (+12) - 8/14 FIR - 6/18 GIR (1 birdie) - 32 Putts (1 3-putts, 12 2-putts, 5 1-putts) The in-laws took me up to a different course today, The Falls at Barber Creek in Kent City, Michigan. I played there last summer and it's a gorgeous little course. I say little because the course tops out at 6,004 yards from the back tees. But for what it lacks in length it makes up for tight tee shots and small, very undulating greens with difficult pin placements. So many sucker pins on the course today. It was very hot today, and the ball was flying well. I played pretty darn well overall. I struggled with the driver early on hitting one ball OB and one ball into the water, but during the middle, middle-end of the round I hit some really nice iron and wedge shots. Because the course is short, most of the back nine I didn't hit anything longer than 4 hybrid off the tee. Birdied number 11 and parred three of the four par 3s, which really helped my score. Unfortunately, I couldn't hold it together on the last hole. I knew I was going for a 38 on the back with a par, and I tried to chew too much of the hole off the tee. I hooked my driving iron into the massive left fairway bunker, caught my sand shot heavy to about 30 yards in front of the green and then unfortunately caught my pitch heavy as well, landing just short of the fringe. Chipped to about four feet but sadly two-putted for a 40. I still need to work on trusting that if I start the ball right of target that it will come back. For much of the front I hit irons perfect distances but they drew left of target. On the par three No. 7 hole that really hurt me as I ended up left of the hole chipping downhill to a pin tucked at the back of the green. I bumped the ball about a yard short of the green and it ran on, but left me an awful downhill putt. I ended up three-putting from about 10 feet. Ouch. Absolutely love The Falls, got to play there last year. Really fun design, and even though it's not long it's not easy! cksurfdude and edingc 1 1 Quote Right Handed Driver: 9° Speedzone (HZRDUS Smoke Green 70g X-Stiff shaft) 2 Hybrid: 18° Exotics EXS Pro (Evenflow Black 6.5) (2020 MGS Official Review here) 3/Driving Iron: 18° UiHi Iron (MMT Utility TX 105g shaft) Irons: 4-GW T100 irons (Nippon Modus 120 X-Stiff shafts) (2021 MGS Official Review here) Wedges: 54° & 58° TSW Forged (Dynamic Gold S300) Putter: ER2B (2019 MGS Official Review here) Ball: MAXFLI Tour X Bag: Hoofer Lite WITB thread here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickp Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 This is a bit different. I was starting to post my Wednesday mediocre round while @ our (SWMBO) favorite pool. The pool overlooks a few holes of an Exec w 8th hole really close. I started watching a foursome of guys my age (72-78) and 3 guys hit their tee shots while the 4th was still in his cart. Then the 4th got out of his cart grabbed his driver (hole approximately 125 yards) and I realized this guy must have had a stroke as his left side was obviously paralyzed. I watched as he painfully teed his ball and hit driver to front of green. He slowly went back to his cart. The other 3 finished up while waiting for their friend. He got to his ball, 3 putted and slowly returned to his cart.What was riveting was his perseverance and determination. Also obvious was his 3 friends/playing partners who didn’t treat him as disabled but an equal partner/player. SWMBO and I were able to observe the next hole tee shots and again he did OK, one handed and not giving.I was impressed w his playing partners who treated him as an golf equal. Kinda cool morning, gave us a great feeling.Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy artful_golfer, cnosil, Kenny B and 5 others 7 1 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...

Popular Post Bucky CC Posted July 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 3, 2020 19 days ago I had my first hole in one ever. Today I shot my lowest round ever; an even par 72. To follow that up I played an additional 9 holes for my league and shot a -1 35. Can't beat a day when you play 27 holes and finish a combined one under par! Apparently 2020 is the best year ever.

Kenny B Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 1 hour ago, LeftyRM7 said: I had the biggest roller coaster round of my life today. I was under net par the entire front 9, came within a foot of my first ace and sat at 42 at the turn. Best 9 ever on my home course. Through 15 holes, I was net -4 but I’d been outside all day and the 100° heat was getting to me and I knew it. Told myself all I had to do was keep it in play and get out of the last three holes with bogeys. I then proceeded to drop 4 strokes over the last 3 holes and ended up tying my best round there at 90. Can’t believe I was that close, playing that well and I just flat ran out of gas. On top of that, on 17 a pair of older gentlemen caught me, I was walking so I’d usually let them go, but since there was 1 hole to play I figured I’d be alright. Well I’m walking across the 18th fairway after hitting my approach, and I hear a tee shot, then I hear a ball, and I look up as it wizzes by about 6 feet in the air right in front of me. It takes a lot to make me mad, but I was so drained it really ticked me off. Without even thinking about it, I casually kicked his ball out of the rough and into the trees. He pulled up and said “sorry, didn’t see you there” but I was in the middle of the fairway, 200 yards in front of him and he just watched me chip and putt on the last hole. I just smiled and waved and walked toward the green. Not sure I handled that the best way but passive aggressive is better than aggressive I guess. Nice round! Now that you've had a good round (don't worry about running out of gas, we all do that), you will good thoughts to draw upon the next time. Use them. Positive thoughts lead to positive results. artful_golfer, cksurfdude and LeftyRM7 3 Quote “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post edingc Posted July 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 3, 2020 - 39/40 = 79 (+7) - 9/15 FIR - 8/18 GIR (2 birdies) - 33 Putts (15 2-putts, 3 1-putts) Finally a round without any three putts! And my driver cooperated with me today, also. Didn't actually strike my irons very well, but I kept almost everything in play, and my length off the tee really helped. My 4 hybrid has become a fairway finder for me, and that's been a huge benefit. There is definitely still a lot to work on. I hooked a ball on the par three No. 12 hole out of play, but thankfully hit my second tee shot well and two-putted to save double bogey. I had a lot of little chips that I didn't get close to the hole, and I just missed converting a few putts inside of 8 feet. Beautiful morning for golf!

Popular Post GolfSpy_SHARK Posted July 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 3, 2020 First off shoutout to @Wedgie @GolfSpy Stroker and @B.Boston For allowing me to graciously blow up today. was a great and fun first round with a few members and can’t wait to get out again to redeem myself. overall rough day for me. 43/47. Nothing was really working. Had a good stretch of 3 holes in the front but that was about it for the day. Chipping was probably the worst today which is not normally the case. Couple duffs left everything short. worst offender was 18 off the tee . Barely caught the ball and dribbled down The hill. Couldn’t end that Way so tee up again.....dead pull maybe 100 yards into woods just awful. Ended up 9 on 18. company was good so all in all can’t complain!

Popular Post revkev Posted July 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 3, 2020 Played World Woods Rolling Oaks yesterday. These is a great property in Central Florida. It’s nowhere near anything, has what many call the greatest practice area in the world and Rolling Oaks sister course, Pine Barrens is a top 100 course.Many of the locals consider Rolling Oaks the better course. I disagree but regardless it’s a beautiful property - it looks more like North Georgia or North Carolina than Florida. My college roommate and I took the assistant pro from his club along with. He is on a COVID holiday as a coworker tested positive, even though he’s negative, they told him to take two weeks. At any rate he shot 75 from the tips - 7,300 yards at sea level. We shot 77,78 respectively from a far more modest 6,100 yards. (I had the 77). It really was the perfect distance for us as a group when we compared clubs used for approach shots we were almost identical. It was also great playing with a teaching pro. I was really scuffling for the first 7 holes although my score wasn’t terrible (one well played hole and a couple of great chips). I thought it was a back swing issue - he said “No - it’s your sequencing, once you get to the top stuff is moving all over the place, at just the wrong time. Stop thinking and just swing the club through to your follow through.”So I did - even though my score card read 39-38 there was a huge difference in the way that I struck the ball on that back nine. Lots of fairways and greens on the back.

zrumble Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Played a true practice round with a couple extra wedges and an x-stiff 3 iron in the bag. Hit the ball all over the place, similar to when I broke my first swing speed plateau. Reinforces my thoughts that speed comes first, then face control. I did hit a 250 yard 3 iron though, so there’s that. Otherwise my chipping and putting felt pretty average and I gave myself different looks at common pin placements.

Popular Post Jmikecpa Posted July 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 3, 2020 Played our annual 4th of July tournament today and shot 73. My net and gross were the same so I could not compete with the net 61 that won the event. Really think we need to have a seminar at my club on how handicaps are supposed to work. A guy in my group was a 14 that shot 77.....gross.

Rickp Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 19 days ago I had my first hole in one ever. Today I shot my lowest round ever; an even par 72. To follow that up I played an additional 9 holes for my league and shot a -1 35. Can't beat a day when you play 27 holes and finish a combined one under par! Apparently 2020 is the best year ever. Nothing else important has happened this year, right?

Rickp Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 You're fairly new here but let me explain something. There are way more rumors floating around in your golf bag than a high school dance. And they know exactly when to toe the line and when they don't have to. It really is a crazy phenomenon but it has been proving time and time again.
