🚨 PERSONAL BEST ALERT! 🚨

- 36/39 = 75 (+3) 😍
- 6/15 FIR
- 11/18 GIR (2 birdies)
- 30 Putts (12 2-putts, 6 1-putts)

Cold, dreary morning and the course was pretty empty. I really took my time deciding on shots and it paid off!

I actually didn't hit very many good shots from the tee today (bad case of the hooks with driver and Super Hybrid), but I hit my irons very well, chipped OK and putted excellently. And, down the stretch, my driver perked up for me.

Played the front nine at even par for the first time ever, highlighted by a 25-foot birdie putt on No. 5. I was +2 coming to No. 16 (probably the second hardest hole on the course) and blasted a beautiful drive that led to a par. I very nearly hooked my tee shot on No. 17 out of bounds left, making a mess of the hole with a double bogey to get to +4 heading to No. 18 tee. (My previous best was +4 during Cobra Connect last summer.)

Most of the pressure was off after the double bogey. I uncorked the longest drive I've ever hit on No. 18, 280 yards uphill, leaving 95 to the flag. Lined up a 58 wedge, landed a few yards short of the flag and ended up with my best approach all day. Knocked in the birdie putt for a new personal best.

Feels amazing to put a great round together this early in the season. Lots of offseason work paying off!

Fantastic round Cody! I love seeing no three putts on the card for you! That’s L.A.B. Is showing it’s worth for you. 
 

I’m guessing that work you’ve been doing with your belt buckle feel paid off during the round? 
 

Real nice to end it with the birdie for the PB too!

It was incredible. That stretch of 10 holes was like nothing I’ve experienced before. Pure auto pilot. Legitimate looks at birdie on 8 of the 10 holes. Had 3, lipped out 1, and left 2 right on track but about a foot short. Driver was on and approach game was on. And in the blink of an eye I had my worst 4 hole stretch (bogey bogey double double) in years. 
 

What a crazy, wonderful game we are all obsessed with

Maddening isn't it?  Still that's some nice playing 🤙

Hey everybody, get in here...The drinks are on [mention=65882]TSauer[/mention]!!!
Congratulations man!
Did you go inside and see if you can get a plaque or something to commemorate the moment? I did, and every time I walk past the little table it sits on, I look at it and smile.

Lol If I could buy you all a round, I would!

I actually ordered a ball display case as soon as I got home, I can’t wait for it to be sitting on my desk.

After six years of playing, I got my first hole in one yesterday! Pretty crazy feeling to see the ball drop from the tee box. It was a slight downhill par 3 from 150 yards, got it done with a 9 iron!

I should just retire now. emoji23.png

Nice!!  Did you throw the ball to the crowd like Graeme McDowell did yesterday? #promove

Hey, at least your honest.  lol   

 

I hope for a perfect 75* day with the softest kiss of a breeze that doesn't affect ball flight, but only keeps you cool for your next round.

Congratulations!! It’s great when you can see it drop.
