Not sure if I made it into a flight yet as I think I missed a week.  Did you see my post in week 5 asking to back date a round to week 4?

I did. It will be added to the spreadsheet for the week in question. 

Also, A reminder to all. Each week you may post as many rounds as you like, but I only take your best round for the week. The flights will be based off of a handicap that is determined by the best rounds that a member posts.

Rough day with the putter, not my best output for sure. Was unfortunate enough to watch 5 putts lip out. Frustrating day. Avg 2.2 putts / hole. Best part of the day was playing the round with my son who was in from NJ, and he beat me by 8 strokes!

The back 9 was closed due to re-sodding greens, so I only got the play the front 9. Beautiful course, but a blind tee shot on 3 and a lost ball cost me 2 strokes. I had a sweet chip in for birdie on 7. Longest drive 286 on the par 5 9th.

I hate 9-hole rounds...they just feel so unfinished.

Absolutely fell off the wagon toady, then got run over by it. got up, got git bay another bus. That bus backed up over me. While I laid there, hoping to die, two gators grabbed me from each end and started trying to pull me apart. The an airplane crashed into me. I crawled out of the crater from the plane crash and my clubs fell out of the bag, one by one, every one of them hitting me on the head.

Embarrassing round today. 

The course was great. I just sucked.

This was a round that could have been WAY better, but very happy with the results.  5 bogeys, 13 pars.  I had at least 4 birdie putts horseshoe out.  The best part of the round was a handful of poor shots/ bad lines off the tee put me without good options for my next shot, but I took the time to find the shot I could hit to advance the ball and was able to get save par  three times.  Fairway numbers down but GIR up.  Putts increased as well (those putts that didn’t fall…..)

Solid competition round for me yesterday in a two man best ball tournament. I’m playing no where near where I was towards the end of last year and winter but I’m finally starting to feel solid again. Time off and nagging injuries can really derail your golf game

Played well but the putter was smoking hot. Shot 35 on the front 9 with only 12 putts. Back nine was fine except for the two par 5s. Managed to make a mess of both with a double and a triple. Almost aced the next par 3 with the ball finishing about 3” from the cup. Still only had 16 putts total with two 3-putts. 28 putts in all. The practice on Friday paid off. Now I need to work on my approach shots some more.
