Testers Wanted: RUNNER Golf and Byrdie Golf Design ×

How'd you play?

Recommended Posts

Mr Double Bogey has done it again.  39 on the front with a double, 39 on the back with another double for a smooth 6 over 78.  Both doubles were just lack of concentration -- i.e. no penalty, just dumb azz play.
And, despite have numerous birdie opportunities today, I squandered them.  To my credit, we're in a really hot spell (100*+) and the super is pouring the water to the greens and fairways in an attempt to stay ahead of the heat.  Greens are soft and running slow right now.
This sounds tooo familiar...

Not exactly sure what my score would have been, as I was playing in a 4BBB. My partner was solid all day, I had my moments. Drove the ball well, fairways ok, wedges ok, putted pretty well, but as is becoming my usual, my irons were atrocious. Had a couple of birdies and holed a couple of long putts but my poor iron play is really frustrating me.

Maybe you're not finishing the shot in the bunkers either.  Do you finish the bunker shot with the club over your shoulder?

Probably not, I can't recall.

Brutal day.  Putts either short or burning the edge ALL day long.  Couldn't buy a putt, whether it was for birdie, par, or bogey.  Had 4 double bogeys for the round and shot 83.  No birdies, just pars, bogeys, and the doubles.  Frustrating day.

This is the exact bump I’m hitting right now too. Good luck on the next round!

I related this on the Shot Scope V3 thread but I played Wednesday at Inverness in Denver.  I think I hit one green and had a couple of shanks in the beginning.  Ugly day wasted on a nice course.

SSV3 will not let me edit the round yet kept score - 91

What is this double bogey free round you speak of?  I know nothing of it.  🙂

 

It's amazing what a round DB-free does for your score.  You actually feel like you played GOLF and not FLOG.

Git r done!!

Played The Fort Golf Club on Friday, which is a great course in the area if you're ever around Indianapolis.  Since I was playing with a couple clients, I teed up with them from the white tees, so only playing 6114 yards.  Had a couple errant shots, but was able to sneak away with a bogey each time and manage the big number.  Two birdies, 5 bogeys, and the rest pars led to a 75 for the day.  

Only drawback was that I had less than 120 yards on nearly all par 4's but didn't give myself the birdie looks I would have liked.  I think I had 3 chances under 10 feet and made 2 out of the 3 which I'm happy with.  Also sunk a few 5 -7 foot par putts to keep the round going.  

This was my first round with my stability shaft and my first impressions are that the stroke does feel more "solid" and by that I mean easier to replicate and get the ball started.  I was struggling early in the year with the dreaded yips so this has helped.  Secondly, the shaft did make my putter heavier overall.  I should have measured swing weight to give exact, but I didn't.  I have a few distances where I use indicator as I putt (inside or outside or my back foot) and will know the distance and I've found that I'm a bit short so far.  However, this is been more with putts 20 feet or greater and I'm only about a foot or two short, so it's been easy tap ins thus far.

**** yeah! Personal best 78 today.

It wasn't raining birdies like yesterday but still f****** stoked about the results.

A little turbulence on the front 9, but the back was smooth sailing. 

I played a little game with my friend where we would call out each shot before executing it, just to prove it wasn't a lucky shot and that seemed to work pretty well, makes you think about how you going to play the hole, which side you are aiming and all that. 

Now, just have to make it happen in a competitive round and I'll see my hcp drop!

Shot 82 yesterday. Should have been much better. I was +2 after seven holes and then finished double bogey bogey to finish with a 41 on the front. The back 9 included a couple of double bogeys and this is when the drinking with my buddies kicked in LOL. I did however finish with a birdie on 17 so kept fighting to the finish. The driver was real solid yesterday giving me lots of opportunities in the fairway but my distance control was off at times. All in all a good time with my buddies.

I'm going to preface this with.... I got up at 6:am. I made a pot of coffee. I made a 4 egg omlett with bacon, mushrooms, chalets, American and Gouda cheese. I watched the news for a bit and then opened my Bible and read for a bit. I let the dogs out and fed them.
I picked my brother up at 9:30. We had a 10:am tee time. I had the round of my life on the front 9. I went par, eagle, par, birdie, par, par, birdie, par, par, bogie.... 3 under par 31 on the front.
The back went a bit different...lol. It was blowing hard and misting the whole time. I went +7 for a 42. I ended up shooting 73... best round of my life... so far...lol. The game seems to be coming around. We'll see if it continues. It was a great day!
 
 


It still sounds like a great day......good breakfast, religious study, golf with your Brother....what more could you ask for?

My golf game continued the downward spiral it's been on for the last few weeks with a +20 56 over the course of nine holes. I did hit 3 fairways and no greens and my putter was my saving grace, with only 18 putts. 

I almost walked off the course after being +10 after just three holes, but decided to gut it out and finish the round and started relaxing a bit more after giving up on trying to have a great round. I actually played better without the mindset of pressing to score well, finishing my last six holes at +10. 

My game from 20-100 showed signs of improvement, I wasn't always on the green but was getting it a lot closer and wasn't shanking so many. I've just got to work on my iron game and I believe I can turn the corner to score well.

Downward spirals happen.  Tough not to get down and want to walk off the course.  Step back and enjoy the fact that you can be outside and just wait for the game to turn around.

Bad rounds happen to everyone at every level. Keep plugging, playing and practicing and you’ll be back and getting better. Plus you have your #1 Caddie riding w you

Great round!!  Congratulations!!   I remember this guy a month or so ago that was talking about giving up the game because he sucked.  Maybe you should have a talk with him.  Convince him that good rounds come after bad ones and not to give up.

Downward spiral here.  After the no doubles 78 on Saturday, I amazed myself with 3 doubles and a quad shooting an 89.  

Other than those 4 bad holes, it was an enjoyable round with another couple that we had not met before.  He and I were about the same distance off the tee and so were the lady and my wife.  Both good players and I hope we can join up again, and I bring a better game.
