Popular Post TomBomb51 Posted September 22, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 22, 2023 I dont know whats going on, but I have gone unconscious the last few weeks. It started with a small convo with my league partner, saying I need to change mentally how I go about putting. Something switched and I have been putting insane.

Yeah I live JUST outside of Rome. The course I am a member at (that scorecard) is The Golf Club of Newport. Its a hidden gem. My dad works there and he says you wouldnt believe the amount of out of towners that play there, hearing from people/internet/whatever that when you come to this area, you play the Turning Stone and you play Newport. The layout is the BEST in CNY and I have never met someone who disagrees with that. It was just bought last year from a guy who had it for 30 years and never once aerated the greens. So the course needs work, but its already showing massive improvements (aerating EVERYTHING, tons of tree work, brand new clubhouse etc). In a few years, it will be in tip top shape and the place to golf in CNY.

GolfSpy_KFT Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Shot a 46 this morning on the front 9 at my home course. Best score I have posted in a while here lately and could have been as good as a 42, but left some putts out there and a couple penalty strokes. Best drive 254 that split the fairway on a par 5 and got FIR/GIR on that hole. Left my lag putt about 10’ short and made that for par, which was awesome. Longest drive was a 282 yard poke on a short Par 4 but missed right rough and had to do a soft punch 6 to get out. Hit it exactly how I wanted but a bit too hot and it rolled across the green and into a bunker. Ended up with a bogey but that was ok. Ball striking overall was really good today so hoping to carry some momentum into my 18 hole round Sunday morning.

Ben_Howell34 Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Played Ballantrae today, shot a 40/41 for 81 (par 72). Incredible weather, albeit with some tough wind. Didn’t approach my best but putted and chipped about as well as possible, so that helped.

Popular Post Josh Parker Posted September 23, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 23, 2023 Ended up getting out to the course and knocking out 18 in about 2.5hrs. Driver was again horrendous and I'm glad I have a lesson next week. My iron play was good but not great. Only hitting 6 of 18 GIR. However my wedges and putter were on fire. 23 putts for a 7 over 79. I had 1 double on a lost ball. I also had this awesome shot from 115 out, flew it past 10ft and sucked back to pin high and made my par putt. Overall a decent round but I can't wait to get the driver working.

Popular Post ZoonORama Posted September 23, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 23, 2023 (edited) Well got out this morning and played Kona Country Club. The course was recently aerated (Tuesday - I arrived Wednesday). In short, the greens are not at all good. As a result they discounted the greens fees $25. Unfortunately, I brought the lightest touch putter I have. I need a piece of angle iron with a block of tungsten welded to it to putt these greens. They don’t roll, the kinda bobble and bounce. So, the rest of the course is in pretty good shape but the greens were a cause of pain today. Shot 90 with 48 on the front 9 (mainly due to my driver not working for me). I switched to a 3w on the back and did much better (42). The course is in a wonderful setting. Got very hot and humid but overall, you can effectively play with a 3w and never touch the driver. I plan on going again maybe on Sunday to try that theory. No driver, all 3w on driver holes. I suspect it will be fine. One of these pictures is my drive and my cousins drive. Couldn’t get much closer. And… the map is one of my favorite holes of the day. Had to club up a LOT due to wind coming in from the ocean. Battled that all day.

Need to work on face strike. Lost my last z star diamond so swapped to a Kirkland. Confirmed I don’t like it. Putts great but is a full club short for me. Gonna use up the rest of my XVs until I can stock up on a lower spin ball. If only I could find used left dashes again. Did have a nice chip in for birdie to end the day. Also had a hell of a sand save after that awful start. Also a not so secret shaft swap was in play today. All I can say is WOW.

fixyurdivot Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 37/39 today at Desert Springs in a losing team average net stableford effort. Two of our group just simply had gawdawful rounds. I was -1 thru #8 and hit a fantastic drive on #9... or so we thought. It was the aggresive line along the left side, easily cleared the set of three palm trees, and looked to be over the small rise and down infront of the trap. But, we think it must have hit a sprinkler head and kicked it left as it was wet, but just barely . I pulled #3 a bit left and took a DB. Solid back but missed a few comeback putts for bogies. I've been tracking my driving distances the past couple of weeks and I'm averaging 221. But today, I had five over 235 and one 243. It's got me considering switching from white to blue/white but on all but one of our four courses, that only gets me one additional stroke. I'm not sure it's worth it as it makes several par 3's 180+. Curious what others think and what you use as factors in choosing tees.

How do you know someone didn't find a ball in water, then lose it in the woods and Lost Golf Balls found it? Or even worse, find someones refurbished ball that looks new and lost in the woods? Maybe that's rare or maybe not, but I'm just not taking that chance. 4 Dozen Maxfli Tours (or X or S) for $120 is all the bargain I need. And if losing a few yards with an inconsistent swing, or I am a beginner or a high index player I am buying Kirkland V3's for $15 a dozen.

Kenny B Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 My wife and I played this morning; first time for me since last Sunday, but my wife played on Tuesday and Wednesday with her ladies groups. Today I had 6 bogeys and a birdie for a reasonable round of 77 (41/36). I did a lot of scrambling, including making some 6-7 footers for bogeys. The birdie came on a downhill 30 footer that I thought was in the hole after I hit it. Then it moved left...then right... then back to the left when it hit the flagstick... looked like it was going to stay out, then dropped. In other words... a lucky birdie! rkj427, sirchunksalot, MattF and 3 others 5 1 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...

Hopefully it continues... I backed it up! Finished double bogey, bogey to limp in with the win. Had to make a 6 footer on 18 to win by 1, but a win is a win! fixyurdivot, cksurfdude, IndyBonzo and 3 others 3 3 Quote *insert WITB here* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
