Tom the Golf Nut Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 We had a break in the weather today. 74 degrees and sunny. Golf course was going to open at 11:00. I didnt warm up due to some larger groups looking like they were going to head over to the first tee. Just went for it. Missed the first fairway by about 2 yards but still in OK position. 6 out of 7 faiways today. Aimed for all the bunkers to try out my new sand wedge. The Sub-70 JB wedge worked out very well even in the wet bunkers. Couple of sand saves. Unfortunately the black finish is already showing marks. Played well considering not playing for two months. Quit after 9 holes due to the high winds picking up just after I got off of hole 9. A lift clean and place round due to all the soft soil and mud. Greens were slow. Three bogies, five pars, and one birdie for a 38. cksurfdude, CarlH, Shapotomous and 6 others 9 Quote Driver, TSi 1 S Flex 3 wood, Aerojet Max UST Helium Nanocore R Flex 5 wood, Aerojet Max UST Helium Nanocore R Flex 7 Wood, Aerojet Max UST Helium Nanocore R Flex 5 Hybrid King Tec MMT R Flex Irons, Tour UST Recoil 95 R Flex (6 - Gap) Wedges, Snakebite KBS Hi- Rev2.0 54* & 60* Agera 35" Ultralight 14-way Cart Bag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post cnosil Posted February 28, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 28, 2021 Was supposed to be in the 60s today, but it probably never got out of the low 50s with lots of clouds and some rain. The course was completely saturated and unless you were on a hill you were standing in casual water. Short game and putting were solid but my full swing was a mess. 41/40:81 4 fairways, 7 greens, 30 putts.

Kenny B Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 I wasn't sure about playing this weekend after getting my 2nd C-19 shot on Thursday. After hitting some balls at the range on Friday, I decided to give it a go even though I ached all over. My wife wanted to play so I sucked it up... and on Saturday I certainly sucked!! Shot 88 with a couple of doubles, a triple and a quad. Just nothing worked. Today was a little warmer but breezy. I felt a little better. Managed an 81... 42/39 with a birdie on #10. The #10 hole is one of two holes that I failed to birdie in 2020, but this birdie was my second on this hole this year and it's not even March!! Go figure. I also had two birdie putts lip out. Overall my putting was much better today than Saturday, however I am still hitting lousy drives and approaches. Today I only hit 7/13 fairways and they didn't go my usual distance. Only 3 GIR, but that was better than one green yesterday!! I need to spend a LOT of time on the range this week. tony@CIC, fozcycle, MattF and 6 others 9 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...

I hope to remain boring! ... I have a playing pard this winter from Chicago. He is 49 and seriously long. I am giving up about 20 years and considerable length. One of the biggest differences between us is when I hit a bad tee shot I am usually in play. His bad tee shots are so long they bring stuff into play I can't reach. We play a short uphill par 4 that requires a 280yd carry over water to drive the green OR a long iron over the right side of the water that is a 220 carry for a LW in OR lay up short of the water leaving 110-120yds to the flag. He hits driver occasionally, 2 iron quite often and hit some spectacular shots as well as some marginal shots that have ended up in bogie or higher. Depending on the wind I hit an 8 or 7 iron short of the water which he always yells "BORING" as soon as I make contact. I have probably birdied it 10 times with 1 bogie and the rest pars and I have not found any of those boring. For 18 holes we have tied several times but his exciting has not beat my boring yet.

If I start posting scores my index will jump about 3-4 strokes. These muni Bermuda greens are just brutal. I love the course but the greens are hard to read to begin with and they wander on short putts or when the ball slows down around the hole because using a very technical term, the grass is splotchy. I have never missed so many 2-4 footers that start on line then move one way or the other several times on it's journey like putting on a Chinese Checkerboard. After holing out we sometimes hit multiple putts from the same spot and they never do the same thing twice. The only time you can be aggressive is on uphill into the grain putts. With Phoenix courses costing $150-250 playing this beautiful muni lay out for $22 is too good a deal to pass up, even with splotchy greens. ... If the greens are repaired, I will have to find another excuse because the weather is ideal. cnosil, Shapotomous, GolfSpy_SHARK and 6 others 6 3 Quote Driver: Qi10 10.5* ...

Rickp Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Tuesday morning 9, +5. Did a little self “ball testing”. We were 2 holes in front of the 2nd group so I was able to experiment with ProV1x vs ProV1. In a small window with 9 holes the ProV1x had a bit of an edge on ball flight with all clubs. No appreciable distance difference, too close to call.ProV1 felt a bit better putting.One of the newer guys is 13 years younger than me and felt good keeping up with him off driver. He’s definitely at least one iron longer.Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy Kenny B, sirchunksalot, MattF and 1 other 4 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...
Nunfa0 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Saturday was amazing, shot a two over par 75 and hit the ball really well. Sunday was no where near as good but I was playing match play and won 1 up. My team are at 10 and 0 for the season with only 3 games to go. sirchunksalot, Kenny B, Rickp and 4 others 7 Quote In my cart Bag: Driver: King F9 9° - LH - Atmos Blue TS 6 Stiff Woods: King F9 - LH - 3/4 Wood - Atmos Blue 7 Reg Z U85 2 Iron Irons: T200 4 Iron AMT White S300 T100S - LH - 3-48* - AMT White S300 Wedges: Indi FLX- LH - 52° 56° 60° - True Temper Spinner Wedge shafts Putter: 2 Bar Hybrid Ball: Pro V1x Testing: Haywood CB/MB Combo Iron Set, 4-7 Cavity backs, 8-PW Muscle Backs, True Temper Dynamic Gold 105 Stiff, 2 Degrees stronger lofts.
