Paul Hedrick Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Today was my first round since I returned from my trip to Pinehurst. I played at my local with a good friend. It was a very nice day, and a great round. My driver behaved itself; I only missed on fairway! Now if only my wedges would behave, I might actually call myself a golfer! LOL As my usual, the front time was better than the back, but really I am happy with the result.

Don't know what happened really, my head just wasn't it or something. It wasn't just my golf game. I flipped my electric cart over twice on the back 9, had never done that before. Maybe because I didn't have any snacks today during my round or something. We’re you close at least?

Popular Post MaxEntropy Posted September 19, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 19, 2021 Today was the MGS outing at @tony@CIC's club (Catawba Island Club). First group was @MattF, @Mr_Theoo, and @DiscipleofPenick. Second group was Tony, me, @Michael Wolff, and @stuka44. I drove the ball perhaps better than I ever have - I was in position for a decent second shot almost all day. Irons were garbage. Not sure why, but I couldn't hit one today. Short game was a little meh and the greens were fast, even though they were recently punched, but putted decently all things considered. Ended up shooting 91, which I'll take as poorly as I hit irons. Always great to get together and hack it around! Weather was perfect. Go to the thread in the Arrange a Game thread for some pics.

Popular Post JerryB Posted September 20, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 20, 2021 Son and I were joined by a couple friends from work for a scramble at Silver Ridge for their local high school. We played really well and shot a 69. A couple weeks ago I would have been a distant fourth best in our foursome but with the strides I've been making lately I contributed a lot. I really striped a three wood to the front edge of the green on the second shot of a par five...which we managed to par. On the whole, we had a ton of fun and I'm really glad we did it. 10/10 would do it again! edingc, Kenny B, RollingGreens and 9 others 12 Quote Cobra Aerojet Max driver Cobra Aerojet Max 3 wood and 7 wood Cobra Aerojet 4/5/6 hybrids Cobra Aerojet 7-PW, GW Cobra Snakebite 52° and 58° wedges Cobra King Stingray 20 putter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not been able to make a good turn with my right shoulder jammed up. Had two rounds with the chiropractor with more to come when I get home. I played the Robert Cupp course at Palmetto Hall Club today. Played the White tees at 6,000+ yards, much longer than my usual 5,300 yds. I had 9/14 FIRs for 64%; 4/18 GIRs for 22% and 30 Putts. What surprised me was 69% Up & Downs. I shot a 50/44:94 with 6 Pars, 5 Bogies, 4 Doubles and 3 Triples….ouch! I struck the ball well, but not far. And when you add 700 more yards to your game it means 3 or 4 to get on the green. My drives were about 190-200 yards, 61% of my approaches were short, but I was able to get up & down. Strokes Gained we’re F9 -6.69 while the B9 was -0.08. Overall, my lack of shoulder turn made the game longer, not being able to make a full backswing plus playing extra yards. cnosil, JerryB, MaxEntropy and 12 others 15 Quote Driver: 0311 XF 10.5* w/Project X Cypher 40 gram Senior shaft or 0811 XF 12* w/Evenflo Riptide CB Senior shaft Fairways: 0211 5W & 7W w/ Evenflo Riptide CB regular shaft and Tour Edge E521 9W w/Fubuki HD50 regular shaft Hybrid: None in bag at the moment Irons: Titleist T300 5-PW w/Fubuki MV Senior graphite shafts w/Golf Pride Tour Wedges: Edison forged 49*, 53* and 57* wedges with KB PGI Senior shafts(80 grm).

GolfSpy_SHARK Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 20 hours ago, BostonSal said: A gorgeous Geoffrey Cornish executive course layout in Middleton, Massachusetts folded a couple of years ago, and that really disappointed me a lot. It was maintained beautifully, it was easy to walk, and it was so much fun to play. They used to have a really good pro shop, too. I never bought a set there, but I bought several single clubs and other gear. The pro shop diminished in recent years as green grass pro shops have everywhere. At one time they had a lady teaching pro there who was almost able to teach me how to chip instead of lobbing the ball everywhere. Anyway, nothing lasts forever, but we had some fun shootouts there and i miss it. We had one in my home town that sold to housing developers back when I was maybe 15/16. Really unfortunate, was where I learned to play and wish I could have brought my son.

juspoole Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 I got out Friday evening for a quick 9 holes. Nothing spectacular, but starting to trust my distances with the T100-s a bit more. They are nearly 8-10 yards longer on average. My best shot came from the tough par 3 11th hole. It was playing 212 yards and I hit a terrific 5 iron to 5 feet.

Popular Post GolfSpy_SHARK Posted September 20, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 20, 2021 Got out to Dunegrass CC in Portland ME this weekend. Decent track, was happy to play and get out but not the best drainage, would not walk it (lots of space between holes) and greens were up and down from speed and firmness not super consistent. +10 (81) with 10 pars 6 bogeys and 2 doubles The course was very tight, which was fun but if I could go back I would not have taken driver off many holes. A lot more irons, not knowing the course just put myself in some bad spots and had to punch out (many trees were hit). The scramble game was really on point and was very happy with getting those 10 pars, they were very much earned. The first putt distance on the front here doesnt look like it does my short game justice, again didn't know the greens all to well but 100 and in I felt really good and the guys I was playing with kept complimenting it and they felt great, just wasn't as close as I would have been on a more familiar course. Made some great 1 putts though. Back 9 not so great but the numbers on first putt distance don't tell that story. That 75' and 47' putts were monsters hence the 3 putts. Fun day with some guys I have never played with on my wifes side.

Jonny_Crash Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 I played 18 yesterday for the first time since tearing my Achilles in April. It was a total struggle as I'm fighting my swing big time right now. I finished with a generous 112 (55/57). I'm losing balls everywhere off the tee these days. I had 7 lost balls (primarily off the tee) and took 43 putts to get down (seven 3 putts). It was just an ugly round. I'm fighting a push -push/slice right now. The push is when I don't get the clubface closed, the push/slice is when I try to "save" it from going right and yank my club inwards across the line... causing it to go more right.... Time for a lesson... Company was great and the views were stellar! edingc, MattF, cksurfdude and 3 others 6 Quote Driver: Ping 425LST 9* (Aldila Rouge White 130) 3 Wood: Sub70 Pro (13) (HZRDS Black 60) 3U: Sub70 (19.5) (True Temper Project X U) Irons: Sub70 699 Pro (5-Gap) (Dynamic Gold S300) Wedges: Vokey SM8 54 and 58 (10S) (Project X) Putter: Some old green Nike Blade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bogeyed the first hole. Then I tee'd off on the second hole, a par 3, and I landed on the green! I couldn't believe it, my second hole and I could have a birdie! Of course, I choked on the putt but I made par on that hole. We all had a great time and keeping score was forgotten, so I don't know how I really did, but it was nowhere as disastrous as I had anticipated! I can't wait to go again!

Rickp Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 Last week one of the worst week I can remember. Monday & Tuesday Exec 9 used as practice and trying new things with grip to help with the Ulnar nerve problem. Wednesday didn’t hit the ball bad shot 43. Friday Exec and lost 3 balls and only 2 Pars. Monday this morning, new day!! Shot 3 over only 1 bad hole. Golf is definitely a marathon bens197, edingc, GolfSpy_SHARK and 6 others 9 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...

It’s been working well as I’ve felt more loose and free. Scoring has followed as well, so the games been more fun. "Stop thinking...

Popular Post Sluggo42 Posted September 20, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 20, 2021 Really good round, and only 25 putts. I often say that total number of putts can be a deceptive number, but when you are super low like today, you generally are having a good round. now the front wasn’t like a wow start, but my little chips were really giving me a lot of one putt kick in pars, but then an eagle with 2 birdies on the back really sealed the deal for a good day. i like it when they move the tee box way up forward on a par 5, where a good drive and a 5 iron put you inside 10 feet juspoole, GolfSpy_SHARK, ejgaudette and 9 others 12 Quote TSr2 on tensi blue stiff Speedzone 3-wood on Tensi blue S Epic Max 5 and 7 woods on HZRDUS Reg flex Paradym 9 wood on HZRDUS reg flex P770 / P790 combo set on Ventus R-6 shafts 6-AW T22 Denim Copper 54°, 58° on Kinetic X Trajectory ER3 or, E.A.S. #4 (“Fang” or “Adele”) ProV1x, or, Maxfli Tour X .Org 14 cart bag Adidas Tour 360 , or Sketcher shoes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I get that low in putts, it's usually because I missed a ton of greens and chipped it close all day.

Popular Post PMookie Posted September 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 21, 2021 Played the worst round I’ve had in a long time 88 (44/44). Total trash. First time playing this course in East Tx and I had NO idea where to aim off most tees, and there wasn’t a single flat lie on the whole course in the 25 yard wide, sloping fairways. Ugh. I’ll never go back.
