What'd You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread) - Page 9

Brag: Shot an 82 with 6 three putts and one 50 foot snake for an insane par save.

Beat:my umbrella broke, rained for 11 out of the 18 holes and crazy wind all day.

Variance:lost $10 because the guy I was playing was playing out of his mind. I normally give him 2 a side (he usually shoots mid 90s) and he shot an 83. Good luck on him getting that spot next time.

Brag: Won $4 playing $.50 skins.

Beat: Second time I've played in the last 6 months, put up two 8s and a 10 to shoot a 93.

Variance: Here's how you make a par. 110 yard par 3. Hit SW tee shot super thin screaming 30 yards past the green. Have ball land on the downslope of the next tee box. Take 60 degree wedge, hit flop shot off a downhill lie onto green 20 ft. from pin. Drain putt for par to win skins. lol

Shot 89 today at Olde Homeplace in Winston-Salem. 68.7/124, 6213 yds.
It was my first decent round of the year (< 99). I love coming to visit my Dad. He always helps me shave a few strokes. He gave me some great short game advice, and it paid off today.

43, with two doubles. Course was pretty short, but a slope of 124, probably because it's pretty narrow. There's a couple of courses like this around here where the course is part of a 55 and older community. I like these courses for a quick nine, as they're usually in pretty good condition for the cost.

I SUCK from 100 yards in. Horrible. I kept hitting my driver because I'm playing out of my mind with it, but I would have felt a lot better hitting a bunch of 130 yards shots than the 90-100 shots I was giving myself.

Today I played from Championship (blue) tees. I shot an 81 @ Terra Lago South Course (AKA 'Landmark' home of PGA skins game 99-02'). 6401 yards, par 72, rating: 71.6, slope: 133.

this was a great round for me. I'm a 12 handicap, and today I was +9.

Today I played at Claremont off of 185th off of 26, which I had never heard of before finding a deal on Oregongolf.com. Like I said above, nothing to write home about, but for 10 bucks it's certainly worth it. Yesterday I played at Wildwood, also because of a great deal through oregongolf.com ($25 for 18 and a cart). I like that course, I've played it before. Could never do it without a cart, though.

Shot 80 on a short Par 66 course today. It's a tough course with lots of water though, so I feel good about it despite the even par I was on the backside after 13 & then played awful after that. My putting is horrendous right now.

kirbrand · 05-17-2007, 03:03 PM

Shot 39 yesterday on a 9 hole course! With rental clubs too. Too bad it was a 28 par course.

bennyhana · 05-19-2007, 07:50 PM

Shot 49 today with my daughter. She shot 68. (9 holes obv)First time we have officially kept her score. She is consistently 140 off the tee. I really enjoyed it.

Same course, early in the morning.... backed up. Shot a 94. First hole my ball hits a sign saying no carts past this point,and goes out of bounds. 2nd hole... OB. I pretty much lost my focus. I was hoping to fire around 81 or lower!!!

what a let down! 51/43 = 94

golf is a funny game.

We got to the 6th hole after about two hours, and there were 4 foursomes on the hole. One putting, one waiting at the tee, and two more behind them. We were a twosome.

(Roddy Ranch in Antioch, CA) They gave us a rain check, which was nice.

Played the historic University of Illinois blue course. Shot 39 then 45, UGH. I can't chip.

bonds · 05-20-2007, 08:51 PM

88. Short game is KILLING me. Bad chipping, bad pitching, bad putting. Also went in about six bunkers.

Hey_Porter · 05-20-2007, 09:36 PM

Best round of the year so far: 83 at my old "home course." Went 43/41. My irons, again, were ON, my driver, which had been excellent, was not. I felt like scoring low, though, so rather than work through it like I'd usually do, I played smart and hitting shorter clubs off the tee.
