CarlH Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Finally able to get back on the course after the fire(s) in our area. The air quality is still in the unhealthy region and the smoke very visible, but we have our member-member Saturday and I needed to get in some swing time. Had a double bogey and a birdie on both sides and shot 40/40 for an 80. Not unhappy since I hadn't swung a club in 9 days. sirchunksalot, MattF, GolfSpy_SHARK and 4 others 7 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.

DiscipleofPenick Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 83 today in kind of a meh round. It was frustrating because it was on a course I feel like I should score better on. But it's one of those courses where they always seem to do something that makes the course always play tougher than it's rated. Pins on ridges, and greens cut so tight they were more dirt than grass. Lots of big brown patches. Hard to chip when the ball doesn't have anything to grip against. Hit the ball great, only threw away 2 shots and everything else was inconsistent short game. Trying a new system & back home Sunday, so can only go up from here.

Cory O Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Round this evening started with a disappointment as right when I pulled into the parking lot of the course, I got a FedEx delivery notice for one of those long boxes we love so much. Then things got weird...My normal drive these days has settled right around 250. Getting it 260+ has been an especially good one. Here were some of my drives that my Garmin measured tonight starting with #1:267270299 (wtf?!?!?)263271284268There might have been a couple influencing factors. The course was a bit baked (but not incredibly so). I was playing a Pro V1 the whole night when I usually play a Project(s), something I’m now reconsidering. Last, I’ve been working through some swing changes for the past few months, really focused on the driver and tonight the swing off the tee did (generally) feel free and natural. The only bad drive the whole round was a snap hook into the trees the first drive after the 299 blast (I guess I wanted to see how far I could REALLY hit it).Besides that, I have to think the Tommy Armour Atomic thought FedEx had delivered that Honma driver I surprisingly won on eBay and was fighting for its life (the Honma wasn’t delivered today, it was a 3w and a couple hybrids).Overall meh putting kept the scoring from being special, +6 overall so right on the handicap, but some of those drives were certainly fun.Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy sirchunksalot, silver & black, GolfSpy_SHARK and 4 others 7 Quote 2024 is the year of the short set!

Kenny B Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 The smoke is starting to clear out of our area after being at dangerous levels since last Friday. Our course opened up Wed afternoon, so we made a tee time for this morning. Got to the course and found that the staff had been busy while closed and plugged and sanded everything. We played anyway, but it was not worth it. Shot 88 with one birdie and two doubles. I average about 31 putts per round... had 40 putts today. 3-putted the first 3 holes. The greens were so slow, I couldn't get the ball to the hole. It looked like they hadn't mowed the fairways since last week until yesterday. Piles of grass all over the fairway and wet from irrigation all night. The rough hadn't been mowed either; they were mowing it today. It's usually reasonably short but thick and wiry. Today it was US Open rough... at least I thought it was. Thick, tall and wet. Not going back until..... Saturday!! cksurfdude, MattF, Cory O and 4 others 7 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...

tony@CIC Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Cold and blustery day 60* with a 20 mph wind off the lake. Ended up with a 91 but was happy with the score. Reasons: My driver was awesome today - last Saturday at the Ohio gathering I couldn't hit a drive. My wife noticed I was putting my weight on my lead foot. The change to a more even weight distribution combined with a tweak to my grip (slightly less strong) and my drives were going straight and long. Our course was closed since Sunday for grounds maintenance, including punching and sanding the greens. So my putter contributed to the higher score. I hate putting on recently sanded greens.

ncwoz Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 45/37: 82 (+10, net even), 36 putts, 4/14 FIR, 9/18 GIR Personal best 9 on the back, and personal best GIR! I ended the round with 7 GIR in a row, easily the longest streak of greens in reg I've hit. Had a tough stretch to start, Double, Bogey, Double, Double, but didn't Double again the rest of the round. Honestly could have easily gone lower too; I hit a ton of putts on the perfect line but the greens were so much slower than I'm used to. Dew was still on the greens, and the ball picked up all the water and sprayed it, which I think really slowed them down. 3 3-putts and only 3 1-putts definitely doesn't do it justice. But my approach game was as good as it's ever been, and I was driving it really well on top of it. I came in the back 9 so well I almost just went back out for another 18! And missed a 30ish foot eagle putt by about 2 inches!

Kenny B Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 48/39 = 87. As you can tell, the back nine was in better shape. Three straight doubles on holes 3-5. Didn't score any better today on our aerated course, but I drove the ball better. Much better. Short game and putting on the greens are what's keeping me from my usual 81 round.

ejgaudette Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Cold here this morning, 32, very close to having a frost delay. Went 41/39 for an 80, one of these days I'll get under 80 again probably just thinking about it to much. Today was terrible was if the tee. Two penalty shots on the front that led to bogey and a handful more in the trees, though I like to blame this on the very cold no warmup start. Otherwise hit 10/18 greens which is high for me, and only one three putt. Not the best day to start Arccos tracking with the short shorts in the cold, but it was fun to see some of the metrics. Of course today was easy to figure out the problem .

Grand Stranded Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 (edited) I'm really happy tonight. After playing about as badly as I can last Saturday, I had a nice round on Tuesday, and backed it up with an even better one today on the same course I imploded on last week. What a difference a week makes, I improved on last week's debacle by 16 strokes!!! We had a Tropical storm come through on Thursday, so the course was soaking wet, and we were cart path only. It was also a damp and windy day, so after months of extreme heat and humidity down here, this morning was jacket weather, and the cooler of ice water was replaced with a thermos filled with coffee. I hit the ball extremely well, but came up short a bunch of times either due to wind or my ball plugging into the soft, wet grass. My short game has been improving and today it really helped me a lot, either getting up and down for par, or saving bogey. I shot 40 - 38, broke 80, and took 1st place by 3 strokes. Golf is a great game, but it can be an extremely frustrating one also. I said this Tuesday, but I'd like to once again thank my internet friends here who gave me the encouragement they did last week when I was so down on myself and my game. Hopefully an old dog can still learn some new tricks, and I start dealing better with the ups and downs on my own though, LOL.

GolfSpy AFG Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Not so good today...82. Drove it pretty well, and long at times. But the GIR was pretty bad. I've been following the Planemate protocols for about 3 weeks now and while I'm confident I'm improving in terms of overall contact and quality of strike, I sometimes find my timing getting out of whack and hitting some well struck blocks if that makes any sense. Overall my short game let me down more than anything, bladed a couple wedges and missed a lot of makeable putts. Eagled 13 though...that's what I'll remember from the round!

CarlH Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 We had our club's member-member tournament today. 27 holes, 9 best ball, 9 chapman, and 9 scramble. My partner and I didn't fare too well. Not that we played poorly, we just didn't play well. On the best ball, I shot 39 and as a team we scored even par gross and -3 net. The scramble was on the inside 9, by far our toughest 9 holes on the course. We shot even par. On the Chapman, we stunk it up. Maybe because we were getting tired or maybe it was just one of those days, but we ended up shooting 6 over for the 9 holes. Hit some good shots, hit some stinkers.

Shapotomous Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 I got out for a rare 18 yesterday afternoon and it was a stinker of an 86. All kinds of excuses available but I just lost about a shot a hole either hitting a bad shot, miscalculated yardages, a bad bounce on a decent shot, poor chip, not knowing where hazards were on a blind shot lines, 3 putts on aerified greens, being stiff after all the morning lawn work etc. I hit driver better than I had in a few weeks and it was a beautiful day here so at least I had that. The temptation was too much and I took both drivers, had a little competition and by the end of the round the G410 had regained gamer status, so I had to remove it from the classified ad.

edingc Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 - 43 (+7) - 3/8 FIR - 3/9 GIR (1 birdie) - 16 Putts (7 2-putts, 2 1-putts) First post-#CC4 round, which I had to shorten to nine holes because of an outing. That meant teeing off the back nine, which bought me a little more time because you can track your tee shot into the sunrise. Definitely getting to the end of the season both with light and temperature. I couldn't play yesterday because of frost, and this morning it was somewhere right around 40 degrees. Brr. I didn't swing particularly well, really blocking a lot of stuff right at the moment, but really just killed the round with a triple bogey on No. 11. Short tee shot, blocked 5 iron down the right side into the trees and then trying to get out of the trees I squared up a trunk and sent the ball about 25 yards behind me. Also thinned a 54 wedge on No. 13 after a really nice tee shot to turn a good birdie look and guaranteed par into a bogey, and then slipped on the wet grass on No. 14 which led me to have to lay up twice before reaching the green. Still, I putted the best I have in a while this morning so I'm happy about that. And I'm not striking the ball terribly, just think I'm swaying/sliding just a little and that's causing the blocked shots. Overall everything has way less movement than I had previously, and that's a good thing because trying to play a 10-20 yard slinging hook on every shot is no easy task.

It was mid-40s temp at a 7:30 tee off. 43 on the front which usually means bogey golf or worse on the back. Missed 4 greens with a wedge (3 hit and rolled off), a 4 foot bird on 9. Rallied for a 40 on the back, no doubles, and chip in on the par 3 17th.I wasn't consistent with my plan or swing thought on the front.

Popular Post Cory O Posted September 20, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 20, 2020 7am tee time this morning, usually never get out that early, so maybe I came out a bit cold. Scramble-fest on the front, but did alright with a long birdie on 7 really helping (wound up being the only one for the round). Back 9 was generally a lot more steady with 8/9 greens in regulation, but nothing too tight so I wound up with a bunch of two putt pats. Only exception was on 13, a dogleg left perfect for my draw, but I wound up with a pull hook and unlucky bounce off the cart path for my first OB in like a month, leading to an ugly double. 39-38 for a 77 (+5). Currently dropping my handicap below 5, but I’m thinking there should be a PCC adjustment as the blacks and blues were playing essentially the same.

Kenny B Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Absolutely beautiful day today!! No smoke, sunny with temp at 65º at 7:30 tee time and warmed up to 80º when we finished at 11am. Ball striking still continues to be much better than the last few weeks. Still having trouble getting the ball to the hole on chips and putts on our greens... still slow; beautiful looking but slow. Shot 42 on the front nine, better than the 48 yesterday, and another 39 on the back nine for an 81 that included four (4) 3-putts, but I had NO doubles or worse!!! I'm reading the putts well, just leaving the putt short, dead in the heart. I also need to fly the ball closer to the hole on chips/pitches. I had been playing more bump 'n runs, and they just don't run like I think they should.

Popular Post tony@CIC Posted September 20, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 20, 2020 Shot an 88 today in sunny but chilly weather. It was about 60 when my wife and I teed off, however, the wind was blowing 15-20. Driver worked for the most part today, but the greens were challenging since they were just punched and sanded a few days ago.An issue that's surfaced is my short game. My wedges 52*, 56* and 60* have all lost distance. Need to figure what's going on - back to the practice holes next week.

Popular Post revkev Posted September 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 21, 2020 Played 9 regular holes and shot 38. Then hit all irons on the back for the D7 test. The wind was 20 mph with gusts going up from there. Not ideal test conditions. But I saw the value of carrying a 4 iron. :) Oh and I walked....
