34 stablford points.

I lost by 1. no score because I had a retched front nine and picked up a lot it really was a round of two halves 10 points going out 24 coming back.
1 birdie, 6 Pars, 4 bogeys, 1 Double, 6 Worse.

Front nine 2 pars, 1 bogey, 1 double, 5 worse. Well on my way to 50+ 35 par.
Back nine 1 birdie, 4 pars, 3 bogeys, 1 worse. 39 strokes 34 par.

+12 thru 13 then the monsoon hit. Course unplayable after that. A shame as I was +2 over my last 6 holes. Lots of trees hit before that.

42-42-84. 1 birdie, 4 double bogeys.

Not a pretty start, but I got it sorted shortly before the turn. Birdie was of the 2 putt variety on a par 5, hit one of my best shots of the year to knock it on. Putter generally was bad, greens were slow and I was just not consistent.

Won my club championship this weekend by 4 with 70-76. The 70 was probably the best round I ever played. Bogeyed the last 3 holes but whatever I'll take it.

Congrats. My driver is in shambles so have to live vicariously through others.

I have never understood how people count all the strokes as they go as opposed to tracking how many over par you are.

30 stablford points.
It rained all last night and all the way round. That didn't make it easier but didn't excuse some of the abominations I hit out there.
2 pars, 7 Bogeys, 6 Doubles, 3 worse.

Fwiw I just write on score card and tally up at end. Don't want the added pressure of trying beat personal goals etc. So didn't realize till after.

18 at the TPC, didn't keep track. Took multiple swings on multiple tees working on my drives. Front probably around 48 back around 39. I still can't translate my driving range swing off the tee to the course.

I hit 10 perfect ones on the range, hit it good on #1, then failed hard on 3,4,7,8 and 10 before I gave up and hit 4I off the tee. Results on the back showed.

I'm thinking my iron swing thoughts creep into my wood shots. Back to the range and see if I can play a bucket like a normal round and see if that works.

Frustrated.

46 (par 37). No birdies, 2 doubles.

Hit driver really well, the rest was a mixed bag. Hit some wayward iron shots and didn't make any putts.

45-40-85. No birdies, 3 double bogeys.

Not a very good effort. Short game was terrible. Driver was mostly decent, though there were a couple of misses.

I did some experimenting with where I hit the ball on the club face with positive results -- I think I normally hit it a bit out toward the toe, which makes it very difficult to hit anything left to right.

Four-ball better ball stablford.

We had 41 points. not nearly good enough. I needed 12 holes before I sorted my setup out and started hitting the ball solidly. I also stubbed two chips so not a good day.

We won our side bet against the other pair we where playing with because one of them had a nightmare and only contributed points on one hole.

Sucked at the scramble so I drank heavily instead. Did hole out one from 50 yards and on another hole after 2 drives left in the water and a topped driver we had to play off the deck from like 275 over water, smoked a nice 3 wood to the front fringe, memory gets a tad hazy after that.

I had a pretty great experience today! So I've been a golfer for a long time, but I did kinda quit the game for no good reason about 2 years ago. Then I had this strange little incident where I ended up having a seizure and almost dying from a brain bleed and serious brain surgery that led to a coma and a 5 month hospital/rehab stay. If you want to read more about it and see pics and descriptions of rehab you can check it out here: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/10...-stay-1518817/

So my life is quite a bit different after coming out of the hospital, and for some reason I've gotten super addicted to golf. I was okay at the game in the past. Like I sucked to start out but I played a ton (almost every day) and managed to shoot a 77 once, by far my best score. Well this hospitalization didn't help at first. In my prime I was capable of a drive of 275 yards, not a great number but pretty good for an amateur. But I was stuck in a wheelchair for like 4 months so when I got back into golf my driving distance dropped down to 205 yards at the best. Anyway, I've been practicing a lot because I love the escape to golf. At first I couldn't even play a round by myself because my therapists called me a "fall risk on uneven terrain" so I had to have my mom or dad caddy for me. But I've gotten better at that and I can walk fine and my game is getting kinda back to normal, at least not terribly bad.

So today my aunt and uncle are members at a local country club and they took me for a round. Last time I shot 101 a few weeks ago, and my goal this time was to break 100. Then strangely I somehow managed to pull a 2 over par 37 on the front nine!!! Not even a lie, I feel like I need my relatives to post some proof here lol. Like I was in a coma and my surgeon told my parents I might never wake up from the coma, and even if I do I might never walk or talk again, and now I'm playing decent golf, yayy...

Four pars and two birdies on the front 9!



My back nine went downhill, but let's just say my goal was to break 100 and I ended up breaking 90, so it was pretty awesome! ty ty ty.

Before I pretty much lost all my muscles and can't even do pull ups or setups like I once could, so I've been swinging this trainer thing like at least 100 times every day, and it's helping get my distance back slowly.



Big fan of this forum, I read everything here, ty very much guys.

35-39-74. 3 birdies, no doubles.

Yeah, didn't really see that coming. Ties my personal best (at least as far as I remember, I played a lot as a junior and was fairly lax in my scorekeeping). Tees were mostly up and it's not a super long course. Funny thing is I didn't feel like I played all that great. Ball striking was above average, short game was fine, putting not very good -- I had 3 three putt bogeys.

Let's see if I remember enough to do a recap.

#1 - 375 yard par 4. Drive to right rough, 140 out. Have to hit a low cut around some overhanging tree limbs, executed successfully to 15'. Awful lag to 4', make it, par.

#2 - 130 yard par 3. Pin is cut way right, I pull one to the left side of the green just past pin high to 40'. May have been some breeze, the guys I played with also went left. Pulled lag putt to 5', ram it 3' past, make for a three putt bogey. +1.

#3 - 520 yard par 5 dogleg right. Hit driver straight through the dogleg 2 rows into trees. Chip out and forward with a 4i to 250. Solid 1 iron to 30 yards, SW pitch to 3 feet, make it, par. +1.

#4 - 365 yard par 4. Solid drive to middle of the fairway, 120 out. 9i all over the flag, comes up 8 feet short. Putt breaks hard left, miss on low side, tap in for par. +1.

#5 - 150 yard par 3. 7i to 9 feet, make downhill putt. Birdie, E.

#6 - 350 yard par 4. Solid driver to left rough 115 out. Pin is cut left and I'd have to hit a big hook with my 9i, elect to go low and try and bounce it up with a 4i, not hit well and comes up 5yds short. SW pitch to 2 feet, make it, par. E.

#7 - 380 yard par 4, dogleg left. Sweeping draw gets a lot of roll to 120, middle of fairway. Pull 9i to left fringe, pin high, 18' away. Pathetic lag to 6' short, miss, tap in for bogey. +1.

#8 - 135 yard par 3. 8i to middle of green, about 12'. Misread break on putt, speed is good though to 2', clean up for par. +1.

#9 - 480 yard par 5. Driver draws some to left rough. 7i layup (water trouble on left) to 100. PW to 4', make it, birdie. E.

#10 - 375 yard par 4. Driver down center to 125. 8i into the wind at flag, comes up 20' short. Double breaking putt that I know, just miss. Tap in for par, E.

#11 - 485 par 5, sharp dogleg right. Airmail drive quite a ways right. No shot, chip out mostly sideways across fairway. 8i to perfect position 100 out. PW to 4', miss, tap in for bogey. +1.

#12 - 350 yard par 4, moderate dogleg right. A little draw on the drive instead of the cut I was trying to hit, runs through fairway and rough into trees. Chip out. PW from 100 is a little too hard, 25' past hole. Green is super slow, lag comes up 5' short, manage to limp it in for a bogey. +2.

#13 - 155 par 3, downhill. 7i pulled just a hair to 12', open the blade on a left to right breaking putt and miss 3' or so right, make it. Par, +2

#14 - 485 par 5 (actually playing much shorter, more like 440 today, downhill). Solid drive to 170, 4 iron hits right in front of the cup, runs 20' past. Lousy lag to 4', limp it in, birdie, +1. This is the easiest hole on the course when the tees are back, it's not really a par 5 when they are up.

#15 - 495 par 5. Slightly pulled drive in left rough. 7i layup to 120. 9i comes up 15' short. Run putt 4' past, miss, tap in, bogey. +2.

#16 - 190 par 3. Solid 3i just past pin high and about 15' left of the green. SW pitch to 2', make it for par. +2.

#17 - 380 par 4. High but straight drive to 165. 5i to 6' past the cup, putt slides past the edge, tap in for par. +2.

#18 - 390 par 4, sharp dogleg right. Clunky 1i off the tee trying not to hit it through the dogleg to 230. Pull 1i into greenside bunker left front of green. SW out of bunker to 5', make it, par, +2.
