Rickp Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Sorry I forgot to post about the 15 that I shot on Friday. I walked into the clubhouse to pay and the assistant pro told to me not to bother, he was thinking that 5 holes were my over/under. He was coming to take us off the course when we were approaching the 4th green - we made it in just before the down pour. You have to love Florida in the rainy season.Right.......Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy 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...

MattF Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 I'm not sure how to describe the round today. Different comes to mind, so does demoralising...I shot a 90 with a 49/41. I figured out what I was doing wrong on Friday and the front 9 today after about 7 or so holes...standing too close to the ball. 5 pars on the back helped a lot. Now I need to remember this when I play next week. The best hole was the par 5 #16. Took a pearl of wisdom from @MaxEntropy and tried to get as close to the hole as possible on my second shot. Hit my 3 wood 220 to leave 43 yards to the middle, pitched up with my 50° and 2 putted for par.

cnosil Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 39/44: 83 5 FW, 10 GIR, 33 putts. a few things attributed to this score; 100* temps (ran out of gas on the back), double on the front, and a quad on the back due to some really bad pitch shots. Tee shots were a struggle today; hit a lot of shots right and the double came on a topped tee shot (lost ball). I also had 4 3 putts (30', 45', 27', and 35').

RickyBobby_PR Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 37/41 after finally finding some semblance of a swing and good rhythm. Could have been lower if not for a couple bad breaks early on the back 9 and a few birdie putts throughout the round that took a peek at hole as the rolled a foot or so by it. aerospace_ray, Rickp, cnosil and 3 others 6 Quote Driver: PXG 0811 X+ Proto w/UST Helium 5F4 Wood: TaylorMade M5 5W w/Accra TZ5 +1/2”, TaylorMade Sim 3W w/Aldila rogue white Hybrid: PXG Gen2 22* w/AD hybrid Irons: PXG Gen3 0311T w/Nippon modus 120 Wedges: TaylorMade MG2 50*, Tiger grind 56/60 Putter: Scotty Caemeron Super Rat1 Ball: Titleist Prov1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sirchunksalot Posted July 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 19, 2020 I played another round today in the MGS Hard Rock Challenge sporting a Nitro ball and a shiny new Cobra F9 5 wood. I decided to start my round by hitting it off the tee and I think I'm in love. I hit it a half ball on the toe side and it just rocketed off the face. I did go left of the fairway and had to it a knockdown as my second shot but I don't care, for my first swing with it I was impressed. I hit it off the tee a few more times and didn't quite get the same results, that happens when you top it or hit it where the hosel would be in an iron. It was great off the fairway, too. Shot 52 with 4 fairways, 1 green, and 21 putts. My driver, wedges, and putter were off but the irons were still performing. I'm surprised, I decided to take the Atomics out of the bag to put my Arccos sensors on the Wilson irons for data purposes and played today with my Cobra F8's.

CarlH Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Day 2 of our Chapman mixed tournament. My playing partner and I just didn't ham and egg it too well today. Sadly, we each left one another with impossible shots here and there. On one of the par 3 holes, she hit a great shot, but it rolled thru the green and into the back bunker. I wasn't too worried about the sand until we got to the green and I saw where it lay smack dab against the back wall, giving me zero chance of hitting the ball anywhere but sideways. My driver was ill behaved today and I hit some real stinkers. But the worst part was missing a 1 foot par putt. We shot 39/44 today to come in with a NET 72. We obviously didn't place in the money zone. But we had fun! EDIT: I was wrong. Just found out that our 6 man team (flight A,B,C) placed 3rd net for $10 per person....pro shop credit.

Popular Post GolfSpy AFG Posted July 20, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 20, 2020 Got out Saturday and shot a "meh" 80. DIdn't play very good, but I wasn't awful. Again no 3-putts, but no 3-putts should be translating to better scores for me. A few weeks ago I posted a couple personal best rounds, very shortly after a lesson wherein my coach identified I was whipping the club inside too much and that I needed to feel a more upright takeaway with more wrist hinge. As I usually do, I think I over did that sensation and fell into lifting the club instead of making a full turn. Once I started to turn better I started hitting better shots, but it was damn ugly for a while. 40% FIR is a bit misleading too; I never big-missed anything and was barely in the rough on others. And on quite a few of them I was pretty deep. Might be that new driver I'm testing...more on that in the Honma thread... sirchunksalot, Rickp, MaxEntropy and 9 others 12 Quote Driver: TSR2, Ventus Blue 6 S, 65g Stiff FW: TSR2 3w, 15, Ventus Blue 7 S, 70g Stiff Hybrids: Apex Pro 3H, Ventus Blue 8 S, 80g Stiff Stealth DHY 4H, Ventus Blue 8 S, 80g Stiff Irons: SMS 5-6, SMS Pro 7-PW, Aerotech Steelfiber i95 Stiff Wedges: SM9 48 F Grind, 52 F Grind, 56 M Grind, Aerotech Steelfiber i95 Stiff Putter: Sri-Hot 5K Triple Wide, Stroke Lab shaft Ball: Pro V1 Click here for my HONMA TR20 Official Review!

A really good idea is playing a round with no driver. Play your lowest lofted fairway wood off the tee and you will probably have at least 4 more chances to use it on par 5's. I did this by accident about 10 years ago when I re-gripped my driver and forgot to put it in my bag, and was surprised by the results.

Popular Post PMookie Posted July 20, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 20, 2020 Probably played my last round at our public course for the foreseeable future. The greens were horrible, half of the holes didn’t have the rough cut in what appears to be weeks, and they’ve pretty much killed 3 greens. Post-round, a couple groups of guys that play out there frequently sat in carts under a big oak and talked about how frustrating it is to play there anymore. We all pretty much came to the conclusion that it’s up to our newly elected Mayor to do something. We talked about getting a group of us to attend a city council meeting to start griping to see if we can enact some change. artful_golfer, cnosil, ncwoz and 8 others 11 Quote Driver: Ping G430 Max 9*, Ping Tour 70X Fairway: Ping G425 15*, Ping Tour 70X Hybrid: Ping G425 22*, Ping Tour 80X Irons: Ping i230 4-GW, TT DG X100 Wedges: SMS 50D/54V/58DModus 130 stiff, +1” Putter: EAS 1.0 Ball: Titleist 2023 AVX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a great course to put the PTx Hogan Combo irons through the paces and gave me a chance to play a course where I can leave the woods at home. I wasn't playing for a score as I really wanted to just focus on yardages and hitting some fun and creative shots on a fairly vacant course. At the end of the day, 6 pars, 2 bogeys and 1 birdie.

Popular Post Kanoito Posted July 20, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 20, 2020 Weekend was not too shabby. Shot 82 twice. Played a twosome with my regular partner. When we arrived the 1st tee, we saw another twosome sharing a bag on the first fairway, didn't think much about it and let them finish the hole and then we played. We decided to skip the 2nd hole, walked up to them and asked nicely if we could play through, since they were sharing a bag and being slow. The guy was kind of offended and didn't believe we could finish faster than them, but after a discussion, they let us through. Long story short, we finished in 2.5 hours walking, were drinking a beer while they were still at hole 14.

MrBandit Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 (edited) Drove the ball exceptional well, new Ping 410 LST is the real deal, fairway finder all day. Terrible job out of the bunkers, really need to work on that. Irons play was really good, results didn't show but the way they were stroke , is what I need to keep remembering . Putting was ok, 2 - 3 Putts that really hurt, aiming was not good, missing on the wrong sides. I have been contemplating taking clubs out the bag and only having the ones i used on a regular basis, and just focus on those. This will force me into some specific yardages and be more consistent with those clubs. Going to put that in place next weekend see how that works out.

Good news is that the new driver (SZ xtreme) and putter (Cleveland SOFT #1) were both fantastic in their debut. A few drives I thought I completely lost were just in the rough. most forgiving driver I've had in the bag. 2-3 birdie putts right on line but just short.

sirchunksalot Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Played another Hard Rock Challenge round today, because a bad day off golf is better than a good day of work and it was a bad day of golf. 51 with 2 fairways hit, 0 greens, and 19 putts. The fairway number is deceiving because most of the misses were no more than five yards into the rough, except the one on 6....we're not talking about the duck hook I hit there. Nope, didn't happen. I was playing good +7 through 5 and then I got a case of the shanks with the wedges. Couple that with the 8 on the par 4 7th and the wheels fell off. The Cobra F9 5 wood continues to impress, @chisag I'm loving the Atmos Blue shaft, it's so smooth. I love it so much I'm having to fight the temptation to buy the 3 wood. It's close to the center of the face more often than not and it just launches the ball. My shot of the day came on 5. I hit a decent drive and left myself 162 out from the green, hit a smooth 6 iron that landed short of the green...and then proceeded to roll off the back into an almost high lipped bunker of rough. I opened up the 56 and played an almost perfect accidental bump and run to 8 feet. I missed the par putt, but was still happy with the bogey.

Are you debating going off the tee until you find a rhythm with the F9? Seems like you’re finding some groove with it?

Seems like you’re finding some groove with it? I put the driver in the bag and left it there for the last 2 holes. Right now I'm hitting shots with the F9 as far as the driver with better accuracy. I think I'm going to keep hitting the 5 wood off the tee for a while until I can figure out better contact with the driver. I have zero confidence with it right now. I'm used to not hitting greens with regularity, but to hit none is disheartening. I usually make up for it with the short game and try to play with the mental approach of bogey golf. I want to be on in three on a par 4, for example. It's hard to do that with the way I'm hitting driver right now.

Kept playing with driver and eventually figured out a minor issue that caused major problems. Solved the minor issue and then driver became a weapon for me. Think i recently hit like 12 fairways one round. If I left the driver in the bag at the time I had zero confidence, i would have never figured out the issue and would have never saw the improvement.

You guessed it, lost the two holes I gave a shot with gross birdie and par. Overall played well with my rebuilt swing under pressure and only up from here. Drove it really well, hit my irons pure, good short game and an okay putter. With that combo I am a bit dangerous when the giving shots BS in a Championship Flight goes away.
